The invention relates to an arrangement in connection with a spooler, in which the cable to be spooled or the like is arranged to move onto the spooler or the like via accumulator, the moving wheels (2) of which are arranged to move between two extreme positions, depending on the line speed and the spooling speed, in such a manner that the moving wheels (2) are arranged to move into the lower extreme position (2b) when the line speed is higher than the spooling speed. To avoid damage a cutting means (6) is arranged in connection with the accumulator, the cutting means being arranged to touch the cable or the like moving via the moving wheels (2) when the moving wheels (2) of the accumulator move into the upper extreme position (2a) and to move into a position for cutting the cable or the like as a result of the motion of the cable or the like.
Apparatus for winding a cable comprising a spooler on which the cable is to be wound and an accumulator adapted to move the cable onto the spooler, said accumulator having moving wheels arranged to move between upper and lower extreme positions, depending on line speed and spooling speed of the cable, in such a manner that the moving wheels are arranged to move into the lower extreme position when the line speed is higher than the spooling speed and into the upper extreme position when the line speed is lower than the spooling speed;
