situations that could occur. Exercise common sense and caution when using this reel. Always be
aware of the environment and ensure that the reel is used in a safe and responsible manner.
•DO NOT allow persons to operate or assemble the reel until they have read this manual and have
developed a thorough understanding of how it works.
•DO NOT modify the reel in any way. Unauthorized modification may impair the function and/or
safety and could affect the life of the reel.
•Use the right tool for the job. DO NOT attempt to force a small equipment to do the work of larger
industrial equipment. There are certain applications for which the reel was designed. It will do the
job better and more safely at the capacity for which it was intended. DO NOT use the reel for a
purpose for which it was not intended.
•Industrial or commercial applications must follow OSHA requirements.
WORK AREA SAFETY
•Inspect the work area before each use. Keep the work area clean, dry, free of clutter, and well lit.
Cluttered, wet, or dark work areas can result in injury. Using the reel in a confined work area may
put you dangerously close to other cutting tools and rotating parts.
•Do not use the reel when there is a risk of causing a fire or an explosion; e.g., in the presence of

Assembly
Exposure to even low-pressure air or fluids is dangerous and can cause personal injury or death.
1）The reel must be installed in a location that conforms to current regulations and standards
covering electrical systems and work environments.
2）Secure the reel to the wall or the ceiling according to the installation diagrams. Use screw
anchors or suitable screws which must be fitted in the holes in the brackets.
3）If hose or bumper block adjustment is required, pull out some hose or cable from reel and allow to
latch at desired length. Loosen bumper bolts and slide bumper block to a position close to the
hose or cable guide. Tighten bumper bolts, and unlatch the reel.
4）The reel is supplied with a hose guide roller bracket. The bracket position may be changed
depending on the reel mounting position. Figure 2 shows “Typical Mounting Positions.” If bracket
position needs to be changed, do the following:
(1) Pull out some hose or cable and let reel latch.
(2) Remove the bolts that attach the guide roller bracket to the support post.
(3) Rotate guide roller bracket to correct position, replace bolts and tighten.

Operating Instructions
1. Check reel for correct operation by slowly pulling out hose or cable. A “clicking” noise will be
heard every half revolution of the drum.
2. To latch the reel, pull out the hose or cable and allow it to retract after hearing the first, second or
third “click.”
3. To unlatch, slowly pull out the hose or cable until the “clicking” noise stops, and then let hose or
cable retract until the hose or bumper block rests against the cable guide.
4. If overloaded, the current protector will cut off automatically, unplug all appliances from the cord
and push the button to restore power.
5. Periodically check the hose condition for wear or damage, and check the swivel fitting for leakage.
Replace any worn, damaged, or leaking parts.
Note: To avoid damage to the reel, always hold on to the cable while it is rewinding.
Do not allow the hose to automatically retract in an uncontrolled way as the hose may whip
around and cause damage to property or personal injury.
Maintenance
Do not open the spring cover. Behind these covers are the main rewind springs. Removal of this
cover by untrained persons can be very dangerous as the spring may come loose, unwind violently,
and cause serious personal injury.
Maintain your tool. It is recommended that the general condition of any tool be examined before it is
used. Keep your tool in good repair by adopting a program of conscientious repair and maintenance in
accordance with the recommended procedures found in this manual. Keep all cutting tools sharp and
clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
1. Make sure the cable is in proper working order and that the insulation is not cut or worn as this
could represent a hazard and jeopardize operation.
2. Clean the cable with a cloth dipped in warm water to remove dirt or deposits and ensure correct
rewinding.
3. Do not use detergents or solvents, which could damage the reel.
4. If it is necessary to perform maintenance on the electrical, mechanical parts of the reel, or to
replace the cable, contact an authorized service center.
