Dual Pedestal HS or HN Model Hose Reels
If hose is not retracting sufficiently or is wound too tight,
the tension can be increased or decreased using one of
the following procedures:
Increasing Spring Tension
(spring is too loose, hose does not retract completely or
retraction is sluggish)
1.
Loosen screw (A) 3-5 turns. Do not completely
remove it.
2.
Use a hex wrench to loosen, the two screws (B). Do
not completely remove them.
3.
Insert a 3/8” square drive breaker bar in opening (C)
on the spring adjustment plate (D).
4.
While holding the breaker bar securely, completely
remove the two screws (B).
5.
Firmly grasp the breaker bar with both hands and
turn it clockwise one turn at a time to increase
(tighten) spring tension.
6.
Replace and partially tighten one screw. You can
now remove the breaker bar. Pull out a section of
hose and allow it to retract to test the tension adjust-
ment.
7.
If additional tension is required, insert the breaker
bar in the bracket again and remove screw. Then
repeat steps 5 - 6.
8.
When you are satisfied with the new setting, tighten
screws A and B.
Decreasing Spring Tension
(spring is too tight, hose retracts too fast)
1.
Loosen screw (A) 3-5 turns. Do not completely
remove it.
2.
Use a hex wrench to loosen, the two screws (B). Do
not completely remove them.
3.
Insert a 3/8” square drive breaker bar in opening (C)
on the spring adjustment plate (D).
4.
While holding the breaker bar securely, completely
remove the two screws (B).
5.
Firmly grasp the breaker bar with both hands and
turn it counter-clockwise one turn at a time to
decrease (loosen) spring tension.
6.
Replace and partially tighten one screw. You can
now remove the breaker bar. Pull out a section of
hose and allow it to retract to test the tension adjust-
ment.
7.
If additional adjustment is required, insert the
breaker bar in the bracket again and remove screw.
Then repeat steps 5 and 6.
8.
When you are satisfied with the new setting, tighten
screws A and B.

•
Never allow the reel to spin freely. Doing so causes
the reel to spin out of control, which could cause
serious injury if you are hit by a tool or the hose.
•
Reel must be bolted securely in place when mak-
ing adjustments.
