ABSTRACT:
A device for removing a plurality of cables from a plurality of reels and thereafter feeding or advancing the cables to, for example, a conduit. The device includes a pair of rotary members positionable relative to each other such that the cables are frictionally retained therebetween. Each of the rotary members has a generally flexible peripheral surface which frictionally contacts the plurality of cables and generally at least partially conforms thereto. A motor is connected to at least one of the rotary members, and the motor rotates the rotary member thereby causing the rotary members to pull the cables from the reels and thereafter advance or feed the cables to, for example, a conduit.
