TonerCoil™ Wire Locator

Description

Never lose a prewire lead again! Use TonerCoil™ to position wire stub outs at any point in wall or ceiling cavities. Use it for all types of prewire applications -- with or without BackBoxx™! Use TonerCoil™ in one of three ways:

  • Stub out: Staple TonerCoil™ across wall studs or ceiling joists -- push wire through any of the pre-punched starburst holes to stub out. You can even mark any special instructions to the drywall installer on the face of the TonerCoil™.

  • Prewire: Attach TonerCoil™ between wall studs or ceiling joists and coil the wire for later tone-out -- no need to use wire staples to hold wire in place (which may damage wire during later removal).

  • BackBoxx™: Fit TonerCoil™ into BackBoxx™ for perfect prewire alignment and location during toning at finish. 

  • Dimensions:24"x7"x1/4"

  • Quantity: 1, 24

TonerCoil™ Instructions

Stub Out:

  1. Place TonerCoil™ across stud opening and attach to outward facing edge of studs using staple gun.
  2. Select one (or more) of the three starburst holes on the TonerCoil™, and push approximately 8" of wire through the hole.  Tie loose knot in wire, and write stub out instructions to drywall installers. Secure remaining wire into stud cavity.

Future Toning:

  1. Staple TonerCoil™ into stud opening using the side faces of the studs, forming a "U" shape to the TonerCoil™. 
  2. Select one (or more) of the three starburst holes on the TonerCoil™, and push several inches of wire through one of the starburst holes.  Wind the excess wire around TonerCoil™, and secure the remaining wire into stud cavity.

Into BackBoxx™ Original™:

  1. Place BackBoxx™ Original™ as described in its instructions.
  2. Separate one of the TonerCoil™ sections from the sheet and hold it in front of the BackBoxx™ with these instructions facing you.
  3. Take the 36" wire lead and push all of it through the starburst hole in the middle of the TonerCoil™.
  4. Fold and lock the tab on the TonerCoil™ to form a triangular, rigid column.
  5. Coil the 36" wire lead around the folded and locked TonerCoil™ from top to bottom, affixing the loose end securely.
  6. Pull the complete TonerCoil™ assembly back into the BackBoxx™ by pulling the wire lead from behind the BackBoxx™ Original™. Tapered ends of the TonerCoil™ will help hold assembly in place.Note: TonerCoil™ must be removed and discarded when connecting wires to devices at finish installation.
