INSTALLATION:
A flexible hose connection must be used between the hose reel inlet and the source of supply to prevent possible
misalignment and binding.
LUBRICATION:
Hose reel spring and bearings are factory lubricated and require no further lubrication.
REPLACING HOSE:
1. Wind spool flange clockwise-facing swivel-until spring is tight.
2. Back off three turns and latch.
3. Insert hose through roller guide.
4. Connect hose fitting to swivel joint and secure hose with clamps.
ADJUSTMENTS:
To adjust spring tension, add or remove wraps of hose from the spool, one wrap at a time until desired tension is
obtained.
REPAIRS:
Extensive repairs should be performed only by an authorized serviceman or factory to avoid damage which may
void your warranty. Remove all spring tension before beginning disassembly process.
MOUNTING:
The hose reel is equipped with a universal mounting bracket so that it can be mounted on the floor, wall or
ceiling; whichever place is convenient. The hose guide arm can be moved to the position desired by removing
the screws fastening the guide bracket to the reel base. Shift the guide arm bracket so the hose comes off the
reel at the desired position and replace the screws.
NOTE:
For proper installation in wall mount applications, ensure
reel is mounted with inlet on the right as you are facing the reel. Failing to do so could cause latching issues.
