Check spool brake for proper tension. There should be noticeable resistance to unrolling. The purpose of
the spool brake is to prevent coasting of the spool during tube pull out.
Coasting of the spool is the
most frequent cause of malfunction!
This problem is most common when the Water
-
Reel is fre-
quently used in short runs and the entire tube is seldom pulled all the way out. When the spool coasts, it will
appear that the Level Wind mechanism is out of time with the incoming tube,
make no attempt to re
-
time the machine until it is determined that the tube is not loose.
If the tube does be-
come loose the only way to correct the problem is to pull the tube all the way out and allow the machine to
operate a full
-
length run. See the "adjustments" section of this manual for adjusting the spool brake.
