NOTE: These instructions are written for machine pull reels.
☞If installing or servicing hand pull reel, use only those steps marked with hand
All units are provided with right hand rotation unless otherwise
specified. This means that hose rotates clockwise to wind
hose when viewing reel from spring (inlet) side...opposite
when viewed from swivel joint (spooled hose connection) side.
Clock-type springs provide power for hose take-up. Springmust be pretensioned at time of installation to insure that
tension is applied to hose at all times.
INSTALLATION
1. If hose is to be coupled to a machine, insure that
machinery is at position closest to reel.
☞2. Securely mount reel in desired position using 3/8"(M10)
bolts. Be sure spool centerline is aligned with hose run.
NOTE: E-Z PULL
above floor. Reel will not “LIFT” hose overhead.
reel should be mounted 3' maximum
.
Reel is shipped with ratchet lock “engaged”. If constant spring
RATCHET LOCK
tension is required, lock may be disengaged by locating and
removing the selector plate anchor screw on the frame, rotating the selector plate to disengage position, and replacing and
tightening the selector plate screw.
MAINTENANCE
Bearings and springs are prelubricated and require no periodic
maintenance.
WARNING
Do not attempt to remove spring from its housing. Clock-
type springs can be dangerous to handle. Removal of
spring from housing could result in personal injury.
☞
CAUTION
If mounting overhead, provide safety chain between reel
base and mounting surface to prevent potential reel drop.
☞3. Position hose guide. Guide must be oriented so hose pays
off reel in a straight line without bends. If
hose should pay-out horizontally.

☞4. Remove hose stop, if attached to hose. Rotate spool
counter-clockwise (when viewed from swivel joint side)
until all hose is wound on reel...not extending through
hose guide. See Figure 1.

☞5. Pre-tension reel by rotating spool in clockwise direction
(when viewed from swivel joint side). Full 360˚turns
should match last digit in model number on serial plate.
☞6. Engage ratchet lock to prevent spool from unwinding.
☞7. Feed hose end out through hose guide and pay-out
hose to maximum working length. At least one turn of
hose should remain on spool. If spool locks up prior to
reaching required length, either reel was over-tensioned
during step 5 or reel capacity has been exceeded.
Failure to correct this condition will result in shortened
spring life and possible damage to other reel components.
☞8. Attach hose stop and adjust free length of hose.
Connect hose to machine or add attachments.
9. If machine pull application or if no-lock operation is
desired, disengage ratchet lock. See following section.
☞10. Connect supply hose to fitting on spring side of reel.
☞11.Turn on pressure to reel. Test for leaks.
The unique SAFETYCHANGE® spring motor consists of a
SPRING REPLACEMENT
spring sealed within a housing. Areplacement spring is
supplied sealed in its housing and the old unit should be
discarded completely.
☞1. Turn off supply pressure to reel.
☞2. Disconnect hose from machine or remove attachments .
☞3. Wind hose onto reel to relieve all spring tension.
☞4. Using a 3/16" allen wrench, loosen socket head screw in
main shaft clamp nut. Support spool and spin nut off shaft.
☞5. Remove entire spool and spring motor assembly
from frame.
☞6. Remove V-Ring seal from spring assembly.
☞7. Remove nuts holding spring assembly and slide spring
assembly off main shaft.
☞8. Slide new spring assembly onto shaft and reassemble
reel by reversing above steps.
☞9. Adjust spring tension. Refer to SPRING ADJUSTMENT.
CAUTION
Failure to relieve all spring tension prior to removing
hose could result in damage to equipment or personal
injury. Follow instructions carefully.
HOSE REMOVAL
Use the following procedure to remove worn or damaged hose
from reel prior to installation of new hose.
1. Move machine serviced by reel to a position closest to
reel. Spring will still be under pre-tension at this point.
☞2. Turn off supply pressure to reel.
☞3. Disconnect hose from machine or other attachments.
Remove hose stop and allow hose to retract onto
spool. Ensure all tension is off spring by manually
rotating spool (normally clockwise when viewed
from spring side).
☞4. Remove hose from spool by looping over spool flange.
☞5. Remove tube clamp from spool.
☞6. Loosen hose clamp affixing hose to hose barb on
swivel joint fitting located on inside of spool.
☞7. Pull hose out of hole in spool.
☞8. Slide tube clamp off hose.
☞8. Install new hose following directions below.
HOSE INSTALLATION
Use the following procedure to replace hose or if reel was
ordered without hose. Refer to HOSE INSTALLATION
REFERENCE DRAWING, below.
☞1. Unspool new hose from shipping spool and lay out to
eliminate twist.
NOTE: This step is not essential, but will aid in winding
operation of the reel and prolong hose life.
☞2. Remove tube clamp from spool and slide onto hose.
Be sure tube clamp is orientated so that loop on clamp
will be next to outside spool flange. (See drawing below.)
☞3. Feed bare end of hose through hole in spool hub
and connect to hose barb on swivel joint fitting.
Secure with hose clamp. (See drawing below).
☞4. Align tube clamp on hose with hole in spool hub.
Fasten with socket head screw, washers and nut.
☞8. Pretension reel and complete installation as
described in INSTALLATION section.
Adjust tension by adding wraps (increasing tension) or removing wraps (decreasing tension) from the spool.
If machine pull reel, move machinery to position closest to
Adjusting tension with hose extended may result in dam-
1. Pull about 10' of hose, allowing spool to rotate.
INCREASE TENSION: Without allowing spool to rotate,
hand feed hose back through hose guide until loop is
large enough to slip onto spool. Add two or three wraps
until desired tension is achieved. See Figure 3.
DECREASE TENSION: Without allowing spool to rotate,
hand feed hose back through guide to provide slack.
Remove one or two wraps from spool. See Figure 4.
2. Test reel operation.

☞5. Wind the hose onto the reel spool by hand rotating
spool in direction it turns free of spring tension.
