Replacing a Rocker at Middle of base with a Corded Pedal
BASE –
Replacing a Rocker at Middle of Base with a Corded Pedal
PARTS
corded pedal with connectors attached
T plugs (same color as the base)
Heyco cord retsraint
TO GAIN ACCESS
- Use the foot pedal to elevate the table.
- Unplug the table.
- Remove the 6 screws securing the plastic enclosure to the base and hold the enclosure up. String or tape may be used to hold it.
REMOVE THE ORIGINAL ROCKER ASSEMBLY:
- Loosen the hex bolt that locates the two extension springs on the collar. Slide the collar on the 1/2″ shaft to verify that it is loose.
- Loosen the set screw that secures the collar with hose to the same shaft.
- There are two set screws that secure each pedal to the end of the shaft. Loosen them on one pedal and remove it.
- Grasp the other pedal and pull the shaft completely out of the base. You will need to slide the collar with springs and the collar with hose off the shaft as you remove it. 8. Do not pull wires from the capacitor yet. Disconnect the three wires from the terminals of the switch by pulling straight on the connectors, not the wires.
- The switch can be removed by unthreading the retaining nut from around the stem .
INSTALL THE CORDED FOOT PEDAL:
- Insert the pedal cord through the open hole in the same metal strip that the power cord exits.
- Disconnect the white switch wire from the capacitor and connect the white wire from the corded pedal. Replace the red on the capacitor also, with the red from the pedal.
- Connect the black wire from the pedal to the end of the black wire that was disconnected from the original switch.
- Place the cord restraint around the pedal cord where it enters the metal strip.
Squeeze the restraint very tightly around the cord with pliers and push it into the hole. This will protect your cord from being pulled or cut.
- Plug the table in and test the pedal function before replacing the plastic enclosure. 15. Glue the painted plugs over the hole on each side of the base where the original pedal shaft exited.
