1.2 Description
1.2.1 The basic hosereel consists of a centrally positioned drum assembly supported by two bearings on the
frame of the hosereel, see figure 1.
1.2.2 Hosereels with hydraulic rewind motors are fitted with a sprocket and chain drive to the drum
assembly. Additionally, the hose may be rewound manually with a cranked handle or by the hydraulic
motor. The emergency crank rewind shaft, operates a crown wheel and pinion set at 90 degrees or 26
degrees to the hosereel front.
1.2.3 The main frame of the hosereel is made up of two end plates joined by two tie plates. The swingjoint
and gooseneck assembly are positioned at one end of the hosereel. The rewind mechanism may be
at either end of the drum assembly. The gooseneck, depending on the size of the fluid path, may be
an integral part of the centre shaft or use separate castings.
1.2.4 This manual describes hydraulic rewind Collins Youldon hosereels. Other types of hosereel include:
electric motor rewind, air motor rewind, manual rewind, and the HR30 series of catherine reels with
various power rewind options. There is a separate manual for each type.
1.2.5 All hosereels are supplied powder painted in a range of standard colours, or in grey primer epoxy
powder coat finish for painting to individual customer requirements. Alternatively, they can be
galvanised or supplied in stainless steel.
1.2.6 Collins Youldon inspect and test all parts of the hosereel fluid path before despatch.

1.3 Inspection
1.3.1 Remove all packaging materials and inspect the hosereel on receipt. If there is any damage,
please notify your supplier and the carrier in writing within 3 days, stating the serial number of the
hosereel and your order number.
1.3.2 If the hosereel is received undamaged, packaging materials may be disposed of in accordance
with local Environmental Health and Safety regulations.
1.3.3 The total weight of the hosereel requires more than one person to lift or move it and in some
installations lifting equipment may be required. Lifting instructions are given below.
WARNING
THE CENTRE OF GRAVITY IS NOT QUITE CENTRAL TO THE HOSEREEL AND MUST
BE DETERMINED BEFORE LIFTING. WE RECOMMEND THAT A MINIMUM OF TWO
PERSONS ASSIST DURING THE MOVEMENT OR INSTALLATION OF THE
HOSEREEL.
CAUTIONS
1 The centre of gravity is not central to the hosereel; we recommend that a minimum
of two persons assist during the movement or installation.
2 The hosereel must only be lifted by the drum (as shown below), or by the frame.
Figure 2 –Lifting the hosereel

2.0 INSTALLATION
CAUTIONS
1 Care must be taken to avoid distortion of the frame when fitted.
2 Care must be taken not to exert undue force on the swingjoint when the inlet connection
is made.
3 The inlet connection to the hosereel must be through a flexible hose.
4 Care must be taken to protect the gears, bearings and chains from dirt and water.
5 The maximum working pressure marked on the serial number label must not be
exceeded.
6 The minimum bend radius of the hose must be compatible with the diameter of the drum
of the hosereel. The drum diameter should be twice the minimum bend radius.
7 If the installation is such that transmission parts are exposed, then additional guarding
may be required.
2.1 Installing the hosereel
2.1.1 Bolt the hosereel frame onto a flat, firm surface. A distorted frame will affect the mesh of the rewind
gears. We recommend the use of four flexible mounting pads to minimise distortion. Where a hosereel
is supplied without a frame it is essential that the mounting is square and the rewind gears are
correctly aligned.
2.1.2 Fully engage the manual rewind handle to make sure that there is sufficient space around the hosereel
for rotation of the handle. It may be necessary to use the manual rewind handle if the power rewind
fails for any reason.
2.1.3 The inlet connection to the swingjoint must be through a flexible hose. Make sure that the hose is
flexible enough to avoid strain or twisting and does not exert any side load on the swingjoint.
2.1.4 External swingjoints are loosely fitted to the hosereel for transport purposes. These must be removed
and refitted using thread sealant.
2.1.5 To protect the gears, bearings and chains from dirt and water, install vehicle mounted hosereels in a
cabinet wherever possible.
2.1.6 Allow sufficient space around the hosereel so that it can be easily serviced and maintained.
2.2 Connecting the hose
2.2.1 When using the hosereel for hose with an inside diameter of 38mm (1½”) or 50mm (2"), the gooseneck
should be removed. Fit the hose to the gooseneck and then refit the gooseneck to the hosereel. When
refitting the gooseneck, ensure that the seal is correctly positioned in the groove in the centre spindle,
section 4.4.4.
2.2.2 If the hose is too close to the drum at the gooseneck connection point, the drum may be dished locally
with a hide mallet. No harm will be done and the hose should then be a snug fit with a smooth profile
around the drum.

2.3 Installing the hydraulic motor
WARNINGS
1 A COMPETENT TECHNICIAN MUST CARRY OUT THIS DESIGN AND INSTALLATION.
2 THE PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE SETS THE MAXIMUM REWIND POWER OF THE
HOSEREEL. THIS LEVEL MUST BE SET LOW ENOUGH TO PROTECT THE
OPERATOR.
2.3.1 All hydraulic rewind hosereels must be connected to a suitable hydraulic control system. In the Collins
Youldon hydraulic control system there are three main components. These are a changeover valve, a
flow control valve and a three position control lever with pressure relief valve. The function of these
components are described below and figure 5 shows a suggested layout for the complete system.
(i) Changeover valve –directs hydraulic power either to the hosereel or cargo pump.
(ii) Flow control valve –enables the maximum rewind speed to be pre-set during installation by
adjustment of the flow of hydraulic oil to the motor.
(iii) Combined three-position control lever and pressure relief valve –controls the operation of the
reel. The control positions and their functions are:
Position 2 –allows the reel to freewheel when the hose is being deployed but without over-
running. Note: The handwheel friction brake provides additional friction braking, see section
2.4.
Position 0 –locks the reel so that the hose is discouraged from shaking loose during transit.
Position 1 –energises the hydraulic motor and rewinds the hose. The lever will detent into
positions 0 and 2. There is a spring return from position 1 to position 0.
Pressure relief valve –sets the maximum rewind power of the hosereel, and must be set during
installation to give a safe maximum rewind torque

2.4 Handwheel Friction Brake
2.4.1 This brake is fitted to most hosereels as standard.
2.4.2 Rotating the handwheel clockwise will increase the strength of the brake. The brake should be
partially released when deploying the hose, whilst still providing sufficient friction to prevent overrun of
the drum. To rewind the hose the brake should be released further. When the hose is stored the
brake should be fully tightened to ensure that the drum cannot rotate during transit.
Figure 6 –Friction brake
2.5 Installing ancillary devices
Additional equipment may have been supplied with the hosereel. This may include but not be limited to the
following:
2.5.1 Fixed 4 way roller guides
These are designed to reduce hose wear. Make sure that the hose will run smoothly off the hosereel drum
and between the rollers.

4.4 Corrective Maintenance
4.4.1 Removing or replacing the hydraulic rewind motor
4.4.2.1 To remove the motor, first loosen the 4 x M10 nuts and bolts holding the motor bracket to the frame.
This will allow the chain to be removed by sliding the motor assembly to one side.
4.4.2.2 Remove the 4 fixings and remove the assembly from the frame.
4.4.2.3 Remove the sprocket from the shaft by loosening the 2 grub screws and pulling the sprocket of the
end of the shaft. If the sprocket is tight a bearing extractor may be required. DO NOT use a hammer to
knock the sprocket off as this will cause irreparable damage.
4.4.2.4 To refit any parts above follow the reverse order. Allow 13mm total movement of the chain at the
midway position.
4.5 Swingjoint / Fluid Path Assemblies
Collins Youldon hosereels have two basic type of swingjoint / fluid path assembly. ¾”, 1” and 1 ¼” swingjoints
are external to the hosereel, see appendix 4 for more detail. These swingjoints can be replaced or serviced
without removing the delivery hose from the reel.
1½” and 2” fluid paths are formed from several cast items, see figure 12 and appendices 3 and 4. The inlet and
seals of these assemblies can be easily replaced without removing the delivery hose from the reel, however
replacement of the spindle and/or shaft will require removal of the drum from the frame.
Leaking product may be due to a worn inlet seal or component. The inlet seal may need occasional
replacement but if the hosereel frame is twisted this will lead to irregular wear of swingjoint components.
Before replacing worn parts ensure that the frame alignment is correct, see Installation section 2.1.1 and
contact our Sales Department for advice.
4.5.1 Replacing swingjoint seals ¾”, 1” and 1 ¼” hosereels

4.5.6.8 Remove the nuts and shakeproof washers, which secure the bottom half of the bearing housing to
the top of the hosereel frame. Remove the old part and replace with the new component. Refit the
nuts and shakeproof washers and tighten.
4.5.6.9 Lower the drum into place, at the opposite end of the drum, refit the bolts securing the bearing to
the top of the hosereel frame, and tighten. Fit the new bearing housing top, refitting and tightening
the two bolts and shakeproof washers.
4.5.6.10 Refer to section 4.5.3 regarding replacement of the inlet seal (and the two types of seal that may
be fitted).
4.5.6.11 Apply a little grease to the mating parts of the seal and put the inlet in position, locating with the 3
bolts and shakeproof washers. If the spindle has the ‘O’ ring type seal, take care not to damage
the ‘O;’ ring when positioning the inlet.
4.5.6.12 Tighten the 3 bolts evenly until secure and reconnect the inlet hose to the inlet using thread sealant
as required.
4.5.6.13 If the hosereel has a chain drive, re-tension the chain by moving the motor mounting plate until
there is 13mm total side movement of the chain at the mid-point in its tightened position. Check the
tension of the chain over one complete revolution of the drum. Once this has been achieved,
tighten the 4-drive unit fixing bolts.
4.5.6.14 Refit the chain guard.
4.5.6.15 Check the reel turns freely when the hose is pulled out. If necessary, adjust the brake as described
in section 2.4.
4.5.6.16 Fit the rewind handle (or re-connect the rewind power supply) and check that the rewind operation
works correctly, ensuring the gears are correctly meshed and running smoothly and check for any
leaks in the fluid path.
