Warnings
3A8689C 3
Warnings
The following warnings are for the setup, use, grounding, maintenance, and repair of this equipment. The
exclamation point symbol alerts you to a general warning and the hazard symbols refer to procedure-specific risks.
When these symbols appear in the body of this manual or on warning labels, refer back to these Warnings.
Product-specific hazard symbols and warnings not covered in this section may appear throughout the body of this
manual where applicable.
WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure fluid from dispensing device, hose leaks, or ruptured components will pierce skin. This
may look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury that can result in amputation. Get immediate surgical
treatment.
• Do not point dispensing device at anyone or at any part of the body.
• Do not put your hand over the fluid outlet.
• Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
• Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop dispensing and before cleaning, checking, or
servicing equipment.
• Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
• Check hoses and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.

Operation
4 3A8689C
Operation
Pressure Relief Procedure
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever
you see this symbol.
1. Turn off the power supply to the pump or close the
upstream ball valve.
2. Trigger the dispense valve into a waste container to
relieve pressure.
3. Open any bleed-type master air valves and fluid
drain valves in the system.
4. Leave the drain valve open until ready to pressurize
the system.
NOTE: If you suspect that the dispense valve or
extension is clogged, or that the pressure has not been
fully relieved after following the above steps, very
slowly loosen the coupler or hose end coupling to
relieve the pressure gradually, then loosen completely.
After doing this, the obstruction can be cleared.
SDX Models - Single Pedestal
1. Perform Pressure Relief Procedure, page 4.
2. Reduce all spring tension by removing loops of
hose from the reel spool. Count the number of
loops removed so the same number can be added
back after repairing (FIG. 1).
3. Disconnect the hose from the swivel elbow (FIG. 1).
4. Using temporary plugs and caps, plug the swivel
assembly being replaced, and cap the hose. This is
recommended for liquid applications to minimize
spills (FIG. 1).
5. Unscrew the swivel shaft to remove the swivel from
the spool shaft (FIG. 1).
6. Lubricate the o-ring on the shaft of the new swivel
kit.
7. Attach the new swivel to the spool shaft (FIG. 1).
8. Torque the swivel shaft (25 - 30 ft-lbs, 33.9 - 40.7
N•m).
9. Connect the hose to the swivel elbow (FIG. 1).
10. Reapply the spring tension by adding the same
number of hose loops to the reel spool that were
removed in Step 2.
11. Test for leaks by slowly applying fluid pressure.
High Pressure Reels Only:
12. Fully extend all of the hose from the reel.
13. Pressurize the reel and hose.
14. Retract the hose.
NOTE: This relieves tension on the swivel due to hose
expansion on the spool.
This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury from
pressurized fluid, such as skin injection, splashing
fluid and moving parts, follow the Pressure Relief
Procedure when you stop dispensing and before
cleaning, checking, or servicing the equipment.

.
XDX Models - Dual Pedestal
1. Perform Pressure Relief Procedure, page 4.
2. Remove the inlet hose and remove the hose reel
from its mounting location.
3. Decrease spring tension:
a. Fasten the hose reel securely to a work surface
before adjusting spring tension.
b. Loosen screw (2) 3 to 5 turns. Do not
completely remove it (FIG. 2).
c. Using a hex wrench, loosen the two screws (A).
Do not completely remove them (FIG. 2).
d. Insert a 3/8 in. square drive breaker bar into
opening (B) on the spring adjustment plate (C)
(FIG. 2).
SPRING TENSION HAZARD
The hose reel spring is always under great tension,
which if released in an uncontrolled manner could
cause serious injury.
• Never allow the reel to spin freely. Uncontrolled
spinning could cause serious injury if hit by the
hose.
• Securely fasten the reel in place while making
adjustments.
• The hose reel spring is not a serviceable part. Do
not attempt to replace or service the hose reel
spring.
• Always wear heavy gloves while adjusting the
spring tension to protect your hands from being
cut on the hose reel.

SPRING TENSION HAZARD
The hose reel spring is always under great tension,
which if released in an uncontrolled manner could
cause serious injury.
• Never allow the reel to spin freely. Uncontrolled
spinning could cause serious injury if hit by the
hose.
• Always grasp the adjusting tool firmly with both
hands when adjusting tension. Spring tension
can cause the tool to move violently.
• Securely fasten the reel in place while making
adjustments.
• The hose reel spring is not a serviceable part. Do
not attempt to replace or service the hose reel
spring.
• Always wear heavy gloves while adjusting the
spring tension to protect your hands from being
cut on the hose reel.

Operation

e. While holding the breaker bar securely,
completely remove the two screws (A) (FIG. 2).
f. While firmly grasping the breaker bar with both
hands, turn it counter-clockwise one turn at a
time until the spring tension is reduced to zero
(FIG. 2).
4. Remove the screw (2) and washer (3) (FIG. 3).
5. Remove the screws (1) and nut (10) (FIG. 3).
6. Disconnect the reel hose (not shown) from the
swivel elbow (11) (FIG. 3).
7. Lay the reel down on a flat work surface.
8. Remove the swivel-side pedestal (G).
9. Remove the swivel assembly (6) (FIG. 3).

10. Install washer (12) onto the swivel assembly and
install the replacement swivel assembly (6) in the
hose reel.
NOTE: FIG. 4 shows the correct shape (a) of the swivel
assembly end, and the correct alignment of the swivel
to the keyhole in the pedestal. For the hose reel to
operate correctly, these parts must be aligned
correctly.

c. Firmly grasp the breaker bar with both hands
and turn it clockwise one turn at a time to
increase (tighten) the spring tension. This is
typically 3 to 5 turns (see FIG. 2 on page 6).
d. Replace and partially tighten one screw (A).
Remove the breaker bar (see FIG. 2 on page 6).
e. Test the tension adjustment by pulling out a
section of hose and allowing it to retract.
