• Ensure that reel is properly installed before connecting input and
output hoses.
• Bleed fluid/gas pressure from system before servicing reel.
• Before connecting reel to supply line, ensure that pressure does
not exceed maximum working pressure rating of reel.
• Remember, even low pressure is very dangerous and can cause
personal injury or death.
• Be aware of machinery and personnel in work area.
• If a leak occurs in the hose or reel, remove system pressure
immediately.
• A high tension spring assembly is contained within the reel.
Exercise extreme caution.
• Pull hose from reel by grasping the hose itself, not the control
valve.
• Ensure that reel, hose, and equipment being serviced are
properly grounded. Use an ohmmeter to check ground
continuity.
• If reel ceases to unwind or rewind, remove system pressure
immediately. Do not pull or jerk on hose!
• Treat and respect the hose reel as any other piece of machinery,
observing all common safety practices.
SAFETY
Personal injury and/or equipment damage may result if proper safety
precautions are not observed.
Form# 1310-1019 Rev: 7/2020

IN-SERVICE CAUTION:
• The user is cautioned not to shut off the fuel gas at the
regulator or supply source first, as a flashback may result,
and thereby damage the hose.
• Users are cautioned specifically to shut off the gas at the
torch first, and then at the regulator or supply source, to
limit permeation of gas through the hose wall. This should
be done when the torch will not be used for periods in
excess of 30 minutes.
• After the flame has been extinguished and the gas turned off
at the supply source, it is recommended that any remaining
gas be bled to minimize degradation of the rubber during
long shutdowns.
• To prevent an accumulation or concentration of gas that
could be explosive or otherwise harmful to personnel, ade-
quate ventillation must be provided at all times, particularly
in confined areas where fuel gas is being used.
• Additional advice for minimizing the permeation problem has
been supplied by an NWSA member who states “The source
of gas (fuel gas and oxygen) should be closed before leav-
ing for the day or shift. After the cylinder or manifold valves
have been closed, the torch valves (both fuel gas and oxy-
gen) should be opened to remove all pressure from hoses.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
MOUNTING
Caution: Unless reel was specified differently when ordering,
maximum installation height is 16 feet. Do not exceed this dis-
tance. Observe all applicable NEC, OSHA & local codes when
installing this equipment.
1. Unpack and inspect reel for damage. Turn by hand to check
for smooth operation. Check for completeness.
2. Configure reel for top, side, or bottom-wind hose dispensing
by removing bolts (or nuts) (1) securing guide arm bracket
(2). Caution: When changing guide arm positions, the
U-bolt must be placed in the proper location as instructed
in figure A below. The reel can “latch out” during use if this
instruction is not adhered to.
3. Determine new guide arm bracket location and remove cor-
responding bolts, (or nuts). Position guide arm bracket to
reel and replace bolts (or nuts).
4. Position reel on floor, wall or ceiling. Secure into place
using four (customer supplied) screws or bolts (3).
INSTALLING THE INPUT HOSES
Caution: Apply teflon tape to all input connections to insure
a proper seal.
INSTALLING THE OUTPUT HOSES
Caution: Use extreme caution; reel under tension, avoid
releasing latch mechanism. Apply teflon tape to outlet connec-
tions.
1. Manually turn spool assembly until spring is tight, back off
three turns, then latch.
2. Route output hoses through guide bracket.
3. Using a wrench, firmly hold on to output fittings on swivel
while tightening the hose connector.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
User servicing of the reel is limited to replacing the input/
output hoses or swivel only. Refer all other repairs to an autho-
rized service person or directly to Reelcraft Industries, Inc.
Failure to do so can result in personal injury and/or equipment
damage and may void the warranty.
Caution: Rewind hose on reel, then bleed pressure from sys-
tem before performing the following procedures.
1. Replace hoses in accordance with procedures given in
“Installation Instructions” section of this manual.
REPLACING THE SWIVEL
Caution: Remove supply line pressure before performing the
following procedure.
1. Remove supply line from swivel.
2. Remove swivel assembly from inlet shaft.
3. Apply thread sealant to threaded connection and re-install
swivel assembly to inlet shaft by reversing steps 1 & 2.
ADJUSTMENTS
Caution: Use extreme caution; reel under tension. Avoid
releasing latch mechanism. If necessary, adjust spring tension
of reel by adding or removing wraps of hose from spool, one
wrap at a time, until desired tension is obtained. Add wraps
to increase tension. Remove wraps to decrease tension. When
adding wraps of hose, be careful not to exceed the winding
mechanisms spring capacity. Add just enough wraps of hose to
achieve the desired tension. Damage to the winding mechanism
will result if spring is over-tensioned.
