INSTALLATION
DELIVERY HOSE INSTALLATION (MAXIMUM SPRING
TENSION)
NOTE:
Maximum hose capacities are based on SAE specified
hoses. Exceeding these capacities voids warranty.
Refer to DELIVERY HOSE INSTALLATION for proper
hose to reel assembly.
Maximum hose capacities (including hang down):
3/4 I.D. air/water hose (SAE 100 R3)40 ft.
1/2 I.D. Air/water hose (SAE 100 R6)50 ft.
1/2 I.D. Oil hose (SAE 100 R3)50 ft.
3/4 I.D. Oil hose (SAE 100 R11)30 ft.
For smoother operation during retraction and to increase
hose life, de-tack hose by wiping entire hose length with a
light lubricating oil before installing on reel. Assemble outlet
adapter to hose and tighten securely. Use teflon tape on
threads to prevent leaks.
See Figure (1).
Insert hose end
with outlet adapter through roller outlet and secure to axle
head with U-keeper. Make sure seal is installed correctly in
axle before assembling.
From open side of reel, loop entire length of hose onto reel
in a clockwise direction. Pull hose out through roller outlet to
wind power spring. When hose is completely extended,
latch reel to prevent it from unwinding. Continue to add
loops of hose and pull out hose until power spring winds
tight.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
Perform the following instructions as stated to correctly set
the power spring for maximum tension. Allow reel to retract
two full revolutions and latch reel. Carefully unloop remain-
ing hose from reel.
Position hose clamp so that approximately 1/2 loop of hose
remains on reel and latching does not occur when hose is
fully extended. While holding hose, allow reel to retract
hose until desired height from floor is obtained, then latch
reel. Slide ball stop over free end of hose and position
slightly below roller outlet. Tighten screws to secure ball
stop to hose. Power spring is now set to maximum tension.
ADJUSTING SPRING TENSION
Should less spring tension be desired, pull hose out from
roller outlet to provide slack and latch reel. Unwind one
loop of hose from reel. Pull excess hose out through roller
outlet and unlatch reel to retract hose. Check tension and
repeat above procedure until desired tension is obtained.
ATTACHING CONNECTING HOSES
To prevent damaging hose connections and/or compo-
nents when pulling hose from reel, pull on the hose itself
and not on the control valve or swivel. Do not pull or jerk
on the hose when fully withdrawn from the reel.
To avoid damaging reel components, always make sure
hose clamp is properly installed.
To prevent premature power spring failure, spring
tension should be adjusted so that it requires at least
two full turns of the reel sheave before the spring is
wound tight.
To prevent damage to connecting hose when installing
hose to reel, sufficient clearance must be provided from
outside edge of sheave.
See Figure (2).
Assemble connecting hose to swivel.
Connect other end of connecting hose to material supply
line source or connection.
