MOUNTING
1. Unpack and inspect reel for damage. Turn by hand to
check for smooth operation. Check for completeness.
2. Configure reel for top, side or bottom-wind hose dis-
pensing, by removing nuts (1) securing guide arm
bracket (2). Position guide arm bracket to desired loca-
tion and replace nuts.
Caution: When changing guide arm positions, the U-bolt
must be placed in the proper location as instructed in Figure
A below. The reel can “latch out” during use if this instruc-
tion is not adhered to.
3. Position reel on floor, wall or ceiling. Secure into place
using four (customer supplied) bolts (3).
INSTALLING THE INPUT HOSE(S)
Warning: Ensure that supply line pressure does not exceed
maximum working pressure rating of reel. Apply pipe thread
sealant to all threads.
Caution: Use flexible hose connection at input. Do not use
rigid plumbing.
1) Connect supply line hose (4) to main shaft input (5) as
indicated in illustration.
INSTALLING THE OUTPUT HOSE(S)
Warning: Use extreme caution; reel under tension. Avoid
releasing latch mechanism. Apply pipe thread sealant to all
threads.
1) Manually turn sheave (10) until spring is tight, back off
3 turns, then latch.
2) Route output hose(s) (11) through guide arm bracket
(2), U-bolts (12), then through cutout (13) in spool as
indicated in illustration.
3) Connect output hose(s) (11) to swivel (14) as indicated
in illustration.
4) Tighten U-bolts (12).
5) Charge hose(s). Momentarily open control valve to
purge hose(s) of gases. When fluid appears at control
valve, close valve. With hose(s) fully charged, release
latch and wind output hose(s) onto reel.
ADJUSTMENTS
Warning: Use extreme caution; reel under tension. Avoid
releasing latch mechanism. If necessary, adjust spring ten-
sion on reel by adding or removing wraps of hose from
spool, one wrap at a time, until desired tension is obtained.
Add wraps to increase tension. Remove wraps to decrease
tension.
SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
User servicing of the reel is limited to replacing input/
output hoses only. Refer all other repairs to an authorized
service person or directly to Reelcraft. Failure to do so can
result in personal injury and/or equipment damage and may
void the warranty.
Warning: Rewind hose on reel, then bleed pressure from
system before performing the following procedures.
1) Replace hoses in accordance with procedures given in
“Installation instructions” section of manual.
Caution: When replacing drive spring, hold the center of the
spring down as the hub is pulled out. If the center is allowed
to raise up, the spring may escape from it’s container with
enough force to cause injuries.
When disposing of old or broken spring assemblies, the coils
should be welded or wired together to prevent possible
injury to scrap handling personnel.
2. All mating moving parts are to be lubricated with Perma
Bond or Loctite anti-seize compound.
