WARNING
Always de-energize the system before servicing or replacing any parts. Failure to do so can result in severe injury and/or death.
Keep hands, hair, and clothing clear of rotating parts.
TO REPLACE THE DRIVE ROLLERS:
1. Select the correct roller size for the particular hose being used:
2. Slowly run the Drive Rollers in order to orient the key ways of the Drive Rollers upward and the spring plungers downward.
NOTE: Rollers should be removed with the keyway facing up to prevent losing keys.
3. Use a small common screwdriver or similar tool to depress the ball spring plunger, and pull the rollers straight out from the shafts.
4. Prior to reinstalling the Drive Rollers onto the shafts, apply a liberal coat of Anti-seize to the shaft OD and keys.
We recommend Mariners Choice Never-Seez®.
5. Install the Drive Rollers by sliding into place until the spring plungers snap out.
NOTE: Drive Rollers should be installed with the keyway facing up to prevent losing keys.
6. Once the correct Drive rollers are installed, close and lock the doors. The Hose Tractor can now be installed onto the Hose Guide.
