2 Phillips Head Screwdriver
¼” Slotted Screwdriver
5/16” Allen Wrench
Those tool(s) most appropriate for the supporting structure and hardware are chosen.

Wall Requirements

The location, dimensions and composition of the mounting surface must comply with building codes. Use the type of mounting hardware most appropriate for the supporting structure.

2½” lag bolts or longer with washers are recommended for use with strong wooden frames • Solid surfaces such as concrete, brick, or stone will require solid-wall mounting hardware such as multisets, wedge anchors or sleeve anchors.

Packing List

The following items are included in the Wall Mount Kit

(1) Wall Mount Bracket
(1) Cable Retractor Box
(2) Hex Head Cap Screws 3/8″-16 Thread, 3/4″ Long
(2) 3/8” Split Lock Washers

2. Secure the Retractor Assembly to the Wall Mount Bracket should be mounted as close to the charging station as possible without interfering with vehicle or pedestrian traffic. This will ensure vehicle and pedestrian safety as well as provide the maximum reach of the EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) charge cable. Use the type of mounting hardware most appropriate for the supporting structure and always adhere to local codes. Refer to Figure 2.

3. Attach the Hose Clamp
The cable management system requires that a hose clamp be attached to the EVSE charge cable and then to the Cable Retractor Box.

The position on the EVSE charge cable where the hose clamp should be attached will depend upon the location of the Wall Mount Bracket in relation to the charging station. The purpose is to keep the EVSE charge cable off the ground where it exits the charging station. There should be no loops and very little sag in the EVSE charge cable between the charging station and the hose clamp. See Figure 3.

Management - fig 2

For correct cable management, there should be ho loops and very little sag between the Charging Station and the Retractor Hose Clamp as shown.

Two hose clamp sizes are provided. The CS-40 and lower amperage models use the hose clamp with two holes (Hose Clamp A). The CS-50 and higher amperage models use the hose clamp that has one hole (Hose Clamp B). See Figure 4 for Hose Clamp selection.
Secure the hose clamp to the EVSE charge cable by tighting the four (4) #5 Phillips screws 5/8” long with a #2 Phillips screwdriver. Refer to Figure 4.

The hose clamp should not be moved once it is clamped onto to the EVSE charge cable. Do not try to pull or force the hose clamps into another position. If repositioning is required, remove the hose clamp completely and repeat the steps above.
To connect the hose clamp to the Retractor Assembly, use the plastic coupler which is secured at the end of the Retractor cord.
Fasten the hose clamp tightly to the plastic coupler using the 10-32 x 1 ¼” long screw and 10-32 nut provided in the hose clamp kit as shown in Figure 5.

4. Wrap Remaining EVSE Charge Cable
There is usually excess EVSE charge cable remaining.

The EVSE charge cable hanger is provided to wrap this excess around as needed.
Insert the vehicle connector into the holster.
Fig 6 shows an example of a completed installation.

5. Adjust Retractor Box Cord Tension
To obtain proper tension for your specific installation, the Retractor Box cord tension should be adjusted with the EVSE charge cable already attached. The recommended procedure for adjusting the tension of the Retractor Box cord is as follows:

The protective cover must be removed from the Retractor Box. Remove the four Phillips screws using a #2 Phillips screwdriver and pull the cover off.
WARNING: Use caution when adjusting tension! The stored energy from the winding must be safely restricted while performing this adjustment.
Remove one loop at a time from the retractor reel until there is a slight droop in the retractor cord and it does not fully retract when unsupported.
IMPORTANT: Add one loop back in to achieve full retraction while providing the lowest tension possible for end users.
