PROBLEMS DURING INSTALLATION
1. HOSE ALIGNMENT
(Fig. 5)
The alignment ofthe hose to the roller guideassembly is crucial
to the pr oper operation of the Hosemaster™. W hen installed
correctly the hoseshould NOT pull to oneside of the roller guide
assembly as shown in the illustrations (right). Installation Aand
C show POOR alignment and should be avoided. Installation B
shows GOOD alignment and is recommended for the best operation of the unit.
2. WATERCONNECTION
(installer provided)
MAINTENANCE
The Hosemaster-Model S™ and Model-D™ are designed for
longevity of operation with very little maintenance required.
• Any difficulty in the extensionor retraction of the hose should
be inspected immediately.Inspect water connections onaroutine basis.
• When winterizing, caution should be taken to prevent freeze damage to Hosemaster-Model S™ or Model-D™.
2. SIDE BRACKET INSTALLATION (Fig. 2)
The side bracketsare used when mountingthe base unit to the ceilingor wall of a storage area.
1) Attachthe side brackets to the Hosemaster base unit asshown in the illustration in
Figure2using the (4) screws provided with the brackets. Tighten securely.
2) Install (4) 1/4 - 20 lock nuts and washers to roller shafts.
3) Depending on theconfiguration of the base unit for your installation,it may be necessary toattach the side brackets inone of the other locationson the side of theHosemaster.As the illustrations depicts, you may rotate the side brackets around the face
of the base unit to achieve the desired mounting location.
4) DO NOTattach the Hosemaster brackets to an exteriorwall. Attach the side brackets to the ceiling or wall of the storage area using (4) #10 screws.
3. EDGE BRACKET INSTALLATION
(Fig. 3)
The edge bracket is used when mounting the base unit to the ceiling, floor,and side
or back wall ofastorage area.
1) Unlike the side bracket installation above, you must install the edge bracket to the
storage space BEFOREattaching the bracket to the Hosemaster.Make sure that you
DO NOT attach the bracket to an exterior wall. Attach the edge bracketto the wall or
ceiling/floor using (4) #10 type screws. Tighten securely.
3) Depending on theconfiguration of the base unit for your installation,it may be nec-

essary to attachthe edge bracket in oneof the other locations onthe side of the Hosemaster.As the illustrations depics, you may rotate the edge bracket around the width
of the base unit to achieve the desired mounting location.
4. HATCH INSTALLATION
(Fig. 4)
When using the Recessed Hatch Assembly, you will still be required to install the Hosemaster™ using one of the3methods
described above. Two styles of hatch assemblies are available
(PN 99582-REC shownand PN 99582-SN), each hatch assembly will be installed as indicated below.
1) Usinga2.75” bit,drillahole where you have determined sufficient spaceis available for the installationof the recessed hatch
assembly. Insert cup through hole and open cap exposing
mounting screw holes.
2) Using three (3) #10 screws NOT provided, insert into screw
holes inflange and tighten screws againstmounting cup housing
being careful not to break plastic flange with too much force.
3) Pull outalength of hose and insertit through the bottom of the hatch. Connect the sprayer attachment to the hoseinserting rubber washer between
hose adapter and sprayer attachment. Pull and release hose to retract hose so that sprayer attachment fits into the recessed hatch assembly.
4) Make sure cap closes securely.

TO EXTEND THE HOSE:
Pull out sufficient hose length until you hear an audible“click”.
Releasing tension when “click” is heard will lo ck hose length
into place.
TO RETRACT THE HOSE:
Pull hose until NO CLICK is heard and release. Hose will automatically retract (CAUTION—Spray attachment may scratch or
injure surface if left to retract unattended).

5) Connectalength of hose from the water source to the 1/2” NPT inlet connector located on the side of the reel. HOLD nut on opposite side of inlet fitting
when tightening inlet fitting.
4) Attach the edge bracket to the Hosemaster base unit as shown inthe illustration in
Figure3using the (4) screws provided with the bracket. Tighten securely.
When determining where you will mount the Hosemaster™,
ample space must beprovided on the water connection side of
the unit. Thedimensional drawing on page1shows aminimum
of 1.60” required for the addition of the water connection hardware (not provided with unit).
HOLD nut on opposite side of inlet fitting when tightening inlet
fitting.
