How to set up your Kerb Shark cable insertion tool
Setting up is quick and easy - as our technical Director Ben Whitaker explains in this video (shot in portrait so easy to watch on your phone).
Step by step - setting up your Kerb Glide tool
Attach the zip-tie
Thread the zip-tie into the slot underneath the Kerb-Glide so that the big square block at the end of the zip-tie nestles into the square hole underneath made for the purpose.
Carefully cut off the loose zip tie material once you've tightened it onto your cable.
Make sure there are no sharp edges on the zip-tie once you have cut off the end - if necessary sand off the edges using sanding paper.
Position your Kerb Glide tool
You may need to twist the Kerb Glide on your cable to adjust it so that it hangs downwards to fit into the channel.
Hold your charging cable and position the Kerb Glide at the entrance to your Kerbo Charge channel on the kerb side of the pavement.
Start charging!
Gently pull the Kerb Glide into the channel, ensuring the bottom of the tool is flat against the base of your Kerbo Charge channel.
Then simply pull the tool all the way through the channel and you’ll see it pulling the cable through the channel behind itself. It may take a few uses to get used to it, but it will soon feel second nature.
