Southwire M3K-M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How much pulling force does the Southwire Maxis 3K cable puller have?
The Maxis 3K (model M3K-M) pulls up to 3,000 lb. That is the rated pulling force with the 1680-20 motor package.
2) Do I have to bolt the Maxis 3K puller to the floor before I use it?
No anchoring is needed on most pulls. The M3K-M is built to be set up free-standing, and Southwire calls out that there's no need to bolt it to the ground on most pulls. That is the practical difference on a tenant-improvement or occupied-building job where you can't drill the slab.
3) What conduit sizes does the M3K-M package cover without buying extra adaptors?
The M3K-M ships with conduit adaptors covering 1 inch through 4 inch conduit, plus the PC100 pulling accessory. For trade sizes in that 1 to 4 inch range you're set out of the box.
4) How fast does the Maxis 3K pull cable?
Two speeds: 25 fpm on low and 100 fpm on high, both measured at no load. The high range is what saves time on long, light branch-circuit runs; you drop to low when the pull loads up and you need the force rather than the speed.
5) Which Southwire part number do I order to get the Maxis 3K with the motor and adaptors included?
Order M3K-M. That part number is the Maxis 3K with the 1680-20 motor, the 1 inch through 4 inch conduit adaptors, and the PC100 included, so you are not sourcing the motor and adaptors separately.
6) What are the shipping dimensions and weight on the Southwire Maxis 3K?
The M3K-M is listed at 50 x 20 x 15 inches with an item weight of 120 lb. That's the crated figure, not the 51 lb machine weight quoted for carrying it on the jobsite, so plan a liftgate or a dock for delivery.
7) What is the Southwire Maxis 3K frame made of?
Steel, finished in black. For MRO and rental-fleet buyers, that's a steel-framed puller rather than an aluminum one, which is consistent with the 3,000 lb force rating.
