Adjusting Carriage -
Continued
Verify that the Gimbal hose guide is in the correct position and moves to the right when the drum is rotated in the direction shown
below. Readjust the carriage, if necessary.
Replace the clutch rod cap and tighten securely.
Loading Hose -
Connect a hose end valve to open end of hose. Pressurize hose and check for leaks at swivel inlet flange, riser flange,
riser / hose connection and hose end valve / hose connection. For improved level wind performance, remove twist due to coiling and
storage from hose before loading.
Use REEL IN to load the first layer of hose on reel with hose feeding straight into hose guide. Stop reel at end of layer to confirm even
placement on reel drum. If the first layer isn’t as shown below, pull hose off or loosen hose manually and adjust position of hose and
hose guide until the hose is tight to the drum and evenly spaced. Use REEL IN to load remaining hose onto reel. Replace cover, if
provided. Latch gimbal guide in the stowed position.
Note
- See “Rewinding Hose” section of Operating Instructions in Appendix.
