  • High durability — rated for up to 1,000,000 open cycles.

Installation​

The cash drawer is equipped with a standard 6-pin RJ12 plug for direct connection to any EPSON POS printer or Epson-compatible POS equipment. When the receipt finishes printing, the printer automatically opens the drawer.

How to open the drawer​

The drawer can be opened in two ways:

  1. Manual opening — turning the key opens the drawer.
  2. Electronic opening — the drawer is opened by the printer or fiscal cash register, after it has been connected with the RJ12 cable.

When the lock is in the locked open/close position, the drawer cannot be opened manually.

warning

To reduce the risk of damaging or breaking the key, avoid leaving it in the lock during normal operation.

Removing the drawer​

Open the drawer and remove the plastic tray for coins and banknotes. Pull the drawer out as far as it will go, tilt the front edge of the drawer upwards, and pull the drawer out at an angle.

Maintenance​

The cash drawer slides should be cleaned and lubricated periodically. The frequency depends on usage and environment, but the typical recommended interval is every three months.

  1. Using a dry, lint-free cloth, wipe off old grease and debris from the inner and outer guides. Do not use water or any liquid cleaners.
  2. With a clean applicator, apply a thin layer of lithium-based bearing grease to the inner and outer guides.
  3. Slide the guides back and forth several times to coat the polyurethane rollers properly and distribute the lubricant evenly.

Frequently asked questions​

How do I open the HD-KFT46 cash drawer?
There are two ways. Manually — turn the key to open the drawer. Electronically — the drawer is opened by the printer or fiscal cash register once it has been connected over the RJ12 cable. When the lock is set to the locked open/close position, the drawer cannot be opened manually, so make sure the lock is in the open position for normal use.
Which cash registers and fiscal printers is the HD-KFT46 compatible with?
The drawer has a standard 6-pin RJ12 connector and a 6/12 V solenoid, which is the most common POS standard. It connects directly to any EPSON POS printer or Epson-compatible device that issues the open-drawer pulse. Some legacy devices use a different pinout — check the device specification before ordering, or contact us with the model name and we will confirm compatibility.
What is a flip-top cash drawer?
Instead of sliding out on rails, the HD-KFT46 has a wide, low-profile housing whose lid is lifted by three springs on a roller with four hinges. When released, the till pops up for fast access, which suits tight counters where there is no room for a drawer to slide forward.
How many compartments does the HD-KFT46 have?
Six banknote compartments with snaps and eight coin compartments. The money insert can be lifted out for emptying, and there is a slot for cheques and other means of payment.
Will the HD-KFT46 work with a Novitus cash register?
No. The HD-KFT46 is a passive drawer — the cash register supplies the solenoid pulse. Novitus cash registers require an active drawer with its own power supply and controller, so the two designs are not compatible.
