Verify Smooth Operation of the Rope

If a charging cable does not extend or retract fully and smoothly, it is likely that the rope has come off the pulley in the counterweight. You must reposition the rope onto the pulley.

To verify smooth operation of the pulley, follow the steps below:

  1. Using the T-25 L-wrench, loosen the set screws on each side of the top cap enough to let the counterweights pass by.

  2. Lift the top cap up and back to rest on top of the CMKClosed Cable Management Kit extrusion.

  3. Place the CMKClosed Cable Management Kit service tool over the exposed edge of the CMKClosed Cable Management Kit extrusion.

  4. Use both hands to pull the top assembly down and towards you until the center “retrieval” rope is exposed.

    The center rope is a retrieval rope to raise the counterweights upwards inside the CMKClosed Cable Management Kit extrusion.

  5. Insert the retrieval rope in the slot on the CMKClosed Cable Management Kit service tool to hold the counterweights up in position.

    Ensure the rope is firmly held by the CMKClosed Cable Management Kit service tool before releasing your hands to pull up the next section of rope.

  6. Visually inspect the rope for correct alignment on the counterweight’s pulley. Make any necessary adjustments.

  7. Check that the rope is moving smoothly through the top assembly’s cover. Make any necessary adjustments to ensure the rope is correctly aligned on its pulley.

  8. Close and reinstall the top assembly.

  9. Verify smooth operation of the rope once the CMKClosed Cable Management Kit is fully reassembled.
