50A Cord reel re-orientation
The power cord on our 2008 Monaco Knight 40DFT is manual crank and faces to the right in the compartment. Unwinds clockwise, and winds counter-clockwise. This might not be so bad, except that the power transfer switch case is about 3" away from the reel. Which makes getting the power cord on the back 2/3 of the reel a complete knuckle buster. I wonder, has anyone found a way to re-install the reel so that it is facing outward? I recognize that this would then create a challenge for getting it to wind and unwind through the hole with the rollers that is at the rear of the compartment, so that's a secondary problem that would have to be resolved. It's a small problem until I am on my knees wrestling with the apparatus... Any and all suggestions other than "buy a different RV" will be appreciated.
