Installation of Reel
For overhead ceiling mounting:
Install reel
between ten and fifteen feet above the floor.
You will need to purchase appropriate hardware
for mounting your new reel
(four 7/16" or M12
bolts, washers and nuts or four masonry bolts,
or similar depending on installation).
1.
The reel base has four 1/2” (or 12.7mm)
drilled holes for mounting on a suitable flat
surface.
2.
The reel is supplied with a hose guide roller
bracket.
The bracket position may be
changed depending on the reel mounting
position.
Figure 1 shows “Typical Mounting
Positions”.
If bracket position needs to be
changed, do the following:
•
Pull out some hose and let reel latch.
See Operation Section: “To Latch,” “To
Unlatch,” page 4.
•
Remove the bolts that attach the guide
roller bracket to the support post.
•
Rotate guide roller bracket to correct
position, replace bolts and tighten.
3.
Using the four holes in the base, mount the
reel in the desired location.
Be sure to use
appropriate hardware and tighten securely.
4.
Flush hose with air or water prior to
connecting to source.
Apply Teflon tape or
pipe sealant to supply line threads, attach to
reel inlet and tighten.
The other end of
incoming line can now be connected to
desired supply source.
Note:
A swivel connector and flexible inlet
hose are required for supply line or warranty is
void.
5.
Flush some product through the system and
reel prior to connecting outlet nozzle to tool.
Apply Teflon tape or pipe sealant to outlet
fitting on reel hose, and then attach to
desired tool, or nozzle.
Check connection
for leakage using soapy water.
6.
If hose stopper adjustment is required, pull
hose from reel and allow latching at desired
length.
Loosen stopper screws and slide
stopper to a position close to the hose guide.
Tighten stopper screws, and unlatch the
reel.
