working pressure of the hose reel.
2. Unpack and inspect reel for damage and completeness. Turn by hand to check for smooth operation.
3. You will need to purchase appropriate hardware for securing your new reel to the desired location.
4. Position reel on the floor, wall or celing and secure into place using the appropriate hardware.
5. If necessary, adjust spring tension on reel by adding or removing wraps of hose from spool, one wrap at

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Before performing any service, always disconnect and lock out compressed air or
fluid, and remove all spring tension.
1. Check reel for correct operation by slowly pulling out hose. A ”click” noise will be heard every half
revolution of the drum.
2. To latch the reel, pull out the hose and allow it to retract after hearing the first second or third ”click”.
3. To unlatch, slowly pull out the hose until the ”click” noise stops, then let cable retract until the hose
stopper rests against the hose guide.
4. If necessary, adjust spring tension on reel by adding or removing laps of spring fastener, one laps at a
time until desired tension is obtained. Add laps to increase tension. Remove laps to decrease tension.
Note: To avoid damage to the reel, always hold on to the reel while it is.
OPERATION
ENCLOSED METAL HOSE REELS

2. Clean the hose with a cloth dipped in warm water to remove dirt or deposits and also ensure the correct
rewinding of hose.
3. Do not use detergents or solvents which could prove incompatible with hose or hose reel materials.
4. Dismantling of the unit by unskilled personal could prove hazardous; the risk involved mainly concern the
preloaded springs.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
