Product Information
Full details
The Olympia Receipt Spike (CS-36B) is an essential organizational tool for cashiers, restaurant staff, and office administrators who need to manage physical receipts, invoices, and order slips quickly. By providing a centralized, vertical storage point, it streamlines the cash-up process and minimizes desktop clutter; however, users should exercise caution as the sharp point is not intended for use by children and requires careful placement in high-traffic areas.

FAQs
What are the dimensions of the Olympia Receipt Spike?
The spike measures 150mm in height and has a 150mm diameter base.
Can this spike be used outdoors?
It is designed for indoor professional environments. Using it outdoors may lead to rust and instability due to wind.
Is the tip protected when not in use?
No, this product does not come with a protective cap. It should be kept out of reach of children at all times.
How many receipts can it hold?
While capacity depends on paper thickness, it can comfortably accommodate several hundred standard-weight thermal receipts.
Is the gold finish prone to scratching?
Like any polished metal finish, it can scratch if handled with abrasive materials. Use a soft cloth for cleaning to maintain its appearance.
Troubleshooting
The spike feels wobbly on the counter
Ensure the surface is level and clean; if the base is slightly uneven, check for debris caught underneath the unit.
Receipts are difficult to impale
Ensure the paper is positioned directly over the center point; if the tip has dulled or bent, use a small file to gently resharpen.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: place the unit on a flat, stable surface within easy reach of your register or workspace. Because of the pointed nature of the device, ensure it is placed away from the immediate edge of a counter where it might be accidentally bumped or grabbed.
To maintain the product, wipe the gold finish periodically with a dry, soft microfiber cloth to remove dust or fingerprints. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may tarnish the gold coating over time. The spike is fully compatible with standard thermal paper, printer paper, and lightweight carbon copy slips.
