Noise data
The hose reel itself does not emit any noise (however, it
may emit a little noise during coiling). The noise level pri-
marily depends on the relation between the diameter of
the hose and the volume of the extracted air (wind roar).
Optimum air volume
Several factors are important when selecting the correct
hose reel. Depending on the application, use the table
below as a guideline for the volume of air, requested for
various requirements.

4.0 Transport, handling and storage
During transport in a truck or in another means of trans-
portation the product must be securely packed in a box
or a pallet and covered with a water proff material.
The product must be securely stowed in the truck so that
it will neither tilt nor shift during transport.
During transport over a short distance e.g. in a stock or
a factory, the product can be moved by means of a for-
klift or a stabeler.
When moved it must be secured that the product does
not tilt or shift. And it must be secured that the limitations
of the means of transportation is not exceeded.
Secure that there are no people around the product,
when the product is moved.
The product must be placed in a dry place and covered
securely, in order to secure that moist, metal parts or
other substances do not damage the product.
It is not allowed to place anything on top of the product.
5.0 Assembly, installation and start of
operation
5.1 Location
The hose reel is suitable both for mounting in the ceiling
as well as on the wall. Ceiling mounting is the best opti-
on, if possible, since this position secures the optimum
operation of the hose reel.
5.2 Installation
When the product is installed it is important that there is
space for
• Assembly and servicing of the hose reel.
• Connections for piping and automation.
Procedure:
1. Wear gloves. Remove the shield on the side of the
hose reel.
2. Loosen the hose reel from the pallet.
3. Carefully roll the hose reel onto another pallet covered
with cardboard or similar.
4. If necessary, use eye bolts when craning the hose
reel.

1. Firmly attach the hose reel to the ceiling or on the wall.
The wall or the ceiling must be capable of withstan-
ding a pull of at least 500 kg in order to prevent a
collapse. It must be ensured that the number of bolts
and the strength of the bolts are sufficient to keep the
hose reel clamped.
2. Important! Mount the hose reel on a plane and stable
installation surface and ensure that the reel/mounting
frame is not twisting. I.e. it must be able to rotate al-
most without friction around its own shaft. If the reel
twists, it may reduce the functionality or the service
life of the hose reel.
3. Connect the piping to the hose reel.
Since the inlet of the hose reel is a ø250 mm nipple,
use a ø250 mm coupling. Make sure not to twist the
hose reel, since it could damage the bearings.
4. Nozzle and automatics are factory-mounted optional
extras. Please order these parts when ordering the
hose reel.
Programming remote
New remote
When programming a new remote control, it is im-
portant that only the respective hose reel is turned
on.
Read all stages through to start programming.
A supply cable with plug for 230V / 50 Hz is supplied
from the factory.
There must be possible for the power supply for each
hose reel to be interrupted individually.
The remote control is programmed for each hose reel.
Only activate the hose reel, when you can see that there
is no obstacles and it has been adjusted correctly.
We recommend assigning a permanent place to keep
the remote control, e.g. on the wall or on the lift by the
individual workstation.

5.3 Control and test of the security system
Always check whether the fan supplies the volume of air,
for which the equipment was dimensioned. If the correct
suction is not present, then there is an increased risk of
the hose melting, when extracting warm exhaust gas-
ses.
GTE – electrical motor
As standard, the hose reel GTE with electrical motor and
remote control comes pre-programmed ready for use.
Please note: Always adjust the hose reel to the wor-
king area by fine-tuning it.
Adjustment of end stop:
Adjust stop by means of a screwdriver.

Connection of wall-mounted control (via cable)
On the TD terminal there is a cable for the one-pole
toggle switch (automatic reset).
Such switches are available in various shapes and
variations
Function: The first push activates the reel, the second
push stops it. The third push starts the reel again, howe-
ver, the drive reverses, etc.
Mounting of automatic start/stop
The switch for automatic start/stop (max. 250V 10A) (if
ordered, it is factory-mounted) must be mounted under
the protection shield. The two-pole switch sends a signal
to the control panel LWS/Multibox when activated and/or
a fast action motor damper.

6.0 Commissioning
Never use the hose reel without connecting it to a swit-
ched-on fan (and an open damper). If there is no air pre-
sent or if the volume of air is not correct (too low), then
the hose will melt or become deformed (turn oval).
In cases where the exhaust gasses have a temperatu-
re higher than 150°C (e.g. if the motor starts running),
then the hose may also melt and/or become deformed.
In such cases, you must ensure to adapt the material/
solution to the job. Check the temperature of the exhaust
gasses before commissioning. Do so by testing with a
probe thermometer in the airflow.
It is important that the fan is always switched on during
use of the hose reel. If you have automatics ensuring
that the fan starts, when using the reel, it is important
that the hose reel is not running in the opposite directi-
on at the commissioning, so that the actuation lever tips
back. If this happens, then the fan will be deactivated
and the hose may melt.
Thus, always check that there is suction on the nozzle,
when fixing it to the hose/upon commissioning.
IMPORTANT! WE SUPPLY HOSE REEL GTE PRE-
PROGRAMMED. I.E. THE REMOTE CONTROL IS CO-
DED FOR THE INDIVIDUAL HOSE REEL AND THE
END STOP IS SET.
Using the remote control:
The top button (UP), coils up the hose. A push on the
button (DOWN) coils the hose down. The button in the
middle stops the hose. If you push the opposite directio-
nal button during operation, the drive will stop and then
start turning in the opposite direction.
The hose reel is not functioning as intended, if:
• Unauthorized parts are mounted on the Hose reel.
• The total lifting capacity of 22 kg has been exceeded.
See section 5.2 for re-programming the roller.
Coiling up:
When coiling the hose up, it is important to guide the
hose by hand.
The hose must not be rolled up when it is hot
6.1 After installation
Check the installation according to chapter 5.3.
7.0 Control, test and maintenance
7.1 Control
Check the installation according to chapter 5.3.
7.2 Maintenance
Periodic maintenance:
• At least once every year, grease the V-ring of the
hose reel in order to avoid deformation. Also, grease
between pipes and connecting branch. Failing to
maintain the hose reel will lead to squeaky noise
coming from the hose reel.
• You cannot carry out maintenance on the hose, how-
ever. To secure a long service life, try to avoid run-
ning over the hose with vehicles etc., make sure to
extract adequate volumes of air and ensure that the
hose does not bend too much immediately after the
exhaust pipe.
• Measure the volume of air on the hose reel at least
once every year. If the volume of air is inadequate, it
may result in burning a hole in the hose.
At least once every year, arrange for an authorized
service engineer to carry out an inspection of the
complete extraction system.
8.0 Cleaning
The outside of the product is cleaned with a vacuum
cleaner or a cloth.
9.0 Troubleshooting
In case of problems with the hose reel, check the fol-
lowing:
Problems with the operation of the hose reel:
• The pawl of the hose reel will not engage. Typically,
the pawl is worn or the spring for the pawl is defective.
Exchange defective parts.
• The hose reel coils slowly. Perhaps it is mounted on
an uneven surface, or the bracket of the hose reel is
deformed. Rectify by mounting the hose reel on an
even surface or by correcting the bracket.
Noise problems
• If the hose reel emits a squeaking noise, typically, the
V-ring of the inlet bearing is defective or out of positi-
on. Rectify it by replacing the V-ring or by adjusting it.

9
Remember to grease it!
• The base on which the hose reel and the fan are
mounted is unstable.
• More air is extracted than what the product has been
dimensioned for. Use an adjusting damper.
Problems with the hose
• The hose cannot withstand high temperatures; there-
fore, holes may have been burnt into the hose.
This happens if there is not sufficient suction in the
system. Rectify by increasing the suction of air th-
rough the system or by extending the hose with 1
–2 m of high-temperature hose, or with a full-length
high-temperature hose, depending on the temperatu-
re. Also you can add ”false air” in order to reduce the
average temperature.
GTE – electrical motor
Troubles with the remote control
The range is too short:
• Roll out the aerial.
• Do not twist the aerial around the power supply cable.
• Reposition the aerial (do not extend it).
• Avoid placing it close to products emitting radio inter-
ference (e.g. overhead travelling cranes). Large volu-
mes of electromagnetic noise may result in reduced
range/function.
• If the LED is lit, normally, the battery in the remote
control is sufficiently charged.
• If during the past few weeks the range has become
shorter, replace the battery.
The range is subject to serious periodic variation/
fluctuation:
• The remote control operates at the frequency of 433
MHz. In case other signals are using the same frequen-
cy, it may reduce the signal significantly, since the re-
ceiver/motor will block the signals for security reasons.
• For example, weather stations or radio-controlled tem-
perature sensors typically emit signals in cycles of 30-
90 seconds lasting approx.1 second.
• Headsets can also emit radio signals, just as airports
and military zones may have equipment causing noise.
• Try testing another position – or deactivate all other
equipment.
• Weak battery? Exchange it.
Change to a cables connection, there is too much elec-
tronic noise..
