NOTE:
During hose installation, tighten the U-bolt just till the hose gets
slightly deformed. Do not overtighten the U-bolt, since the hose could
be damaged.
To install the hose the first time, follow the next steps:
1.
Make sure the power spring is relaxed, with no tension, in such a way that
the spool does not try to turn (the ratchet must be unlocked).
2.
Connect the new hose to the swivel (2) (fig. 4), place the U-bolt (1)
(fig. 4) in such a way that it firmly holds the hose against the spool,
and start to wind the hose into the spool turning the spool manually.
3.
Once the hose is completely wound around the spool (the power
spring still will be with no tension), apply the pre-tension to the power
spring by turning the spool the number or turns stated in the table
depending on the hose length (pag. 5), turning in positively direction
as shown in (fig. 5). Do not apply more tension than stated, as the
power spring could be damaged.
4.
Pass the hose end through the roller outlet to the desired length, lock
the spool with the ratchet in the nearest position and place the hose
stopper.
5.
Fully unwind and rewind the hose to make sure the power spring is
correctly tensioned.

NOTE:
During hose installation, tighten the U-bolt just till the hose gets
slightly deformed. Do not overtighten the U-bolt, since the hose could
be damaged.
1.
Ensure the reel is firmly attached. Take the hose fully out and let the
spool blocked by the ratchet mechanism.
NOTE:
beware the spool to get loose and start turning freely.
2.
Remove the U-bolt by loosening its nuts (1) and disconnect the hose
from the swivel (2) (fig. 4).
3.
Take away the hose from the spool and remove the hose stopper in
order to use it with the new hose.
4.
Connect the new hose to the swivel. Place the U-bolt in such a way
that it firmly holds the hose against the spool, and pull the hose in
order to unlock the ratchet.
5.
Allow the hose to slowly wind into the spool and ensure to finish with
the whole hose inside the reel and the power spring with no tension
(in such a way that the spool does not try to turn).
6.
Apply the pre-tension to the power spring by turning the spool the
number of turns indicated below, depending on the power spring
version and the hose length (fig. 5):
Hose length
Hose 3/4"
Hose 1/2"
50'
+8 turns

65'
X
+4 turns
Do not apply more tension than stated, as the power spring could be
damaged.
7.
Pass the hose end through the roller outlet to the desired length, lock
the spool with the ratchet in the nearest position and place the hose
stopper.
8.
Fully unwind and rewind the hose to make sure the power spring is
correctly tensioned.
HOSE REPLACEMENT
If you wish to increase or decrease the power spring tension:
1.
Pull the hose out till the first ratchet locking position.
2.
Remove the hose stopper and pull the hose out in order to unlock the
ratchet.
3.
Allow the hose to fully wind into the spool, applying some counter-
force in order to avoid the spool to turn freely.
NOTE:
beware the spool may get loose and start turning freely.
SPRING LOAD ADJUSTMENT
4.
Turn the spool to increase or decrease the power spring tension (fig. 5).
5.
Pass again the hose end through the roller outlet and place the hose
stopper in the desired position.
6.
Make sure that the hose fully winds and unwinds properly. If it does
not, repeat the previous steps until it does.
