Keep away from trolley
when moving machine or turntable
(With IRCO gearbox)
MISTAKE TO AVOID - A FEW WORD OF ADVICE
- If only a few metres of hose are pulled out, be sure to start the hosereel up
gently. This especially applies whenit is empty.
- Never leave the non return pawl in the up position apart from when the hose is being pulled out.
- Do not suddenly stop and start up again while pulling the hose out.
- Do not start the irrigation run if the hose on drum is not wound on
tight nor if there are spaces between the coils left on the drum.
- Never carry out any operation on the hosereel while the hose is under tension.
- Once the hose has been pulled out the irrigation run must begin within 24 hours.
ATTENTION!
It is necessary for the operator, before using the
apliance to be aware of the instructions listed on the
operator’s manual and on the stickers placed on
protection shields.
DANGER
Before carrying out any work on the irrigation machine
make sure that the pet hose is not under tension.
Do not stand in front of irrigation machine on the
hose side when it is use.

Water always remains in the PE hose, therefore it is preferable during unwinding to evacuate water
in a nearly channel with the inlet hose. (fig.29)
- ATTENTION: Do not to unwind hose with a tractor that doesn't have the sufficient weight to overcome
the adhesion that the land generates on the tube. The stabilizer legs won't be able to
to fill their role if the wheels of the reel are not, more or less, perpendicular
to the trolley.
It is recommended to till or mow vegetation if the tube adhesion is very high
soil. (Ex: pea, soy or beets ...)

- it is very likely that the tube is not always aligned with the
machine; the requirements of the land sometimes oblige some
curves. It is important that the first 60 mt. of unwound tube
are aligned. The disregard of this limitation may break the
fork or levelwind and may damage the tube.
Align the drum with the furrow.
The first 60 meters must be aligned
The variation of trajectory must be always progressive.
When the tube is unwound to follow
the contour of an obstacle (electric post,
dwelling, various buildings, etc..) The variation of
trajectory must be always progressive. Never
make an angle greater than to 90° on the entire length
of the tube. Following its track, the tube will roll up
avoiding the obstacles.

Fig. 31Fig. 31
- Harness the tractor to the trolley, and unwind
the PE hose slowly and regularly (fig.29) until
the white part painted on the drum appears (fig.31)
white part
IMPORTANT: It is imperative to leave at least one wrap of hose
on the drum to avoid the distortion of the hose at its connection.
When starting a new hosereel for the first time. It is important
that the tube be pulled nearly all the way out in order to tighten
the new tube on the drum.
- 6) use of the brake: At the time of unwinding you must adjust the brake. The brake must be tightened
sufficiently to avoid the PE tube relaxing on the drum.
- During unwinding, the spool must stopped turning at the same moment that the tractor stops pulling.

Never transport the hoseReel with the anti-return pawl disengaged! The
tubing will become loose and tangled. Do not attempt to operate if there
are any coils of tube that are loose or misplaced. If loose coils of tube are noticed after pulling the tube out,
they must be tightened up by rotating the spool with the hand crank. If this is not possible, pull all of
the tube out before attempting to rewind the tube. Never try to move or relocate the machine if the tube is
not fully rewound onto the machine. Never run over the tube with any kind of vehicle and avoid pinching or
pulling the tube around objects. Make it a point to never bend the tube sharper than 15 times the diameter
of the tube. Avoid using the PTO or engine drive to rewind the tube when it is un-pressurized. When the tube
is not pressurized the tube flattens and the rewind mechanism can not function properly. Keep the tube
pressurized when rewinding!
1) Spool perpendicular to the wheels and parallel to the furrow.
2) Plant the stabilizer legs, and lower the trolley.
3) Put the gearbox in the unwinding position .
4) Raise the anti-return pawl.
5) Block the turbine by-pass in the maximum open position.
6) Attach the trolley to the tractor and unwind the first 60
meters aligned to the hose reel it. 5Km/h maximum speed without surges.
7) Stop when the white painted part appears on the spool. Allow at least one wrap of tube to remain.
8) Put down the anti-return pawl.

- After all the air is purged from the system and the sprinkler is operating smoothly, you can start the drive system.
- IMPORTANT: For turbine drives, allow the water to go through
the system for several minutes to carry out any trash or debris that
may have been in the mainline pipe. After the system is thoroughly
flushed, start the drive system.To guarantee the reel will function for an entry pressure
not exceeding 10 bars, take into account the pressure loss of the hose, turbine and
layer change. (fig.38)

- Tachometer:
- The Tachometer (fig.41) is the instrument which is used to read the trolley speed in meters / hour (m/h).
- Read the speed by finding the point of intersection
between the needle and the line representing the layer
on which the PET tube is, and follow the curved line
to the nearest number.
For a speed of 20 m/h
- Unrolled, the needle is at 20
- Rolled up, the needle is at 13 (follow the curved line to 20)
hose-reel is unrolled
hose-reel is rolling up
- The depth of water applied by the hoseReel is regulated by the speed the sprinkler moving over the
ground (fig.38). It is also affected by the amount of water being discharged by the sprinkler head.
- Example: Your hosereel is
an St5 110 TG 380
Sprinkler’s type is a Ranger
with Ø28 for nozzle.
Your turbine pressure
gauge is on 9 bar.
The travel speed is
20 m/h
- Note that the application
rate is 40 mm.
- The amount of water discharged is
determined by the sprinkler nozzle
size and the water pressure. These
two factors are determined by the
available water and the capability
of the water pump at the water
supply. The selection of the sprinkler
nozzle needs to be made based on
the water supply and pump
performance.
- After the nozzle has been selected, the “depth of water” decal on the machine can be used to determine
the travel speed settings to give the desired depth of water. See the example.

Rolling up with power take off
8)8)
OPERATION
- All the Irrimec hose reel models are provided with a power take off (pto) shaft to allow manual rolling up.
This operation must be carried out only in the event of extreme need: for
a normal operation of the Hosereel, it is absolutely discouraged
to roll the tube up completely from the start.
- In case the turbine or the motor fails or, in the case of a
problem on the computer, or in case of a relaxation
of the tube or a trancanage failure, it is possible to roll up
the tube to move the reel.
- a) With B600 gearbox(fig.42)
1) Insert the crank, the wheel, or the universal joint
to the power take off shaft.
- b) With IRCO gearbox(fig.43)
1) Remove the clutch actuator from the power take off shaft.
2) Insert the crank, the wheel, or the universal joint
to the power take off shaft.

3) Start the winding with a constant speed.
4) Make sure the wraps are tight to one another. And that the hose guide mechanism is not in advance or
late in comparison with the hose.
5) At one meter from the end of the tube, stop the tractor and use the crank to finish rolling up the last
meter with the hand wheel.
- ATTENTION: The hose retention bar in this case does not stop the Hosereel. It is up to the
user to stop the tractor in time.
- ATTENTION: If the hose remained unwound for a long time unrolled or if it
rained sticking the hose on the ground, before winding with
the PTO, raise the hose by putting pieces of wood at regular
intervals under the hose.
- ATTENTION: Never roll up the tube with the PTO if the hose
is not under pressure.

- Functions of the hose retention bar:
- a) Stopping the unit when the hose reel tube has completed winding
on the drum: in this case the hose retention bar is
activated by the trolley that engages its lower part.
- b) Disallowing the tube from leaving the drum because of an
incorrect wrap.
- c) Activating the turbine and compensation to vary
the speed of the drum.

- Adjust the position of the attachment
of the cable so that when the hose retention bar
passes the position (fig.48) to (fig.50), the flap
passes the position (fig.49) to (fig.51).

Inner Cable
- The changing of the spool
diameter due to
the coils of tube makes
the speed vary during the
cycle. It is necessary to
compensate for the
variation. This is the role of
the turbine flap.
- During winding, the
hose retention bar follows
the PE tube. Its movement
is transmitted to the flap by
the cable.

- The hoseguide mechanism is a device that guides the tube that allows winding the tube in a compact
way on the drum.
- If this shouldn’t happen (coils have distance between them or the tube piles on itself), check the following:
- Check that the hose guide fork is fastened to its support;
- Check that the chains (primary and secondary) have got the right tension.
- Tightening chains:
Primary chain:
- loosen the hoseguide bolts
(item B fig.52) and adjust its position with the adjustment
screw (item C fig.52) or with pads (item D fig.52) for the
new position.
secondary chain:
- loosen the bevel gear pair mounting bolts
(item A fig.52) and adjust its position.
- CAUTION : After tightening the chains, check that they
can still an deflect about 1 cm. If the chains
are tightened too much, the could break or
damage the bevel gear pair.
Note: If during these checks you note one of the problems described, advise your
dealer for repair by qualified personnel.
- After each repair of the hoseguide mechanism, it is required to retime the
hoseguide mechanism. Proceed in the following way:

- Hoseguide mechanism timing:
- Proper timing of the hoseguide mechanism is essential to the successful operation of the hosereel.
Improper hoseguide timing will result in a mis-wrapped tube. Travel will be interrupted because the auto shutoff
bar will stop the drive system in order to prevent damage to the irrigation tube. Do not continue to operate
if the tube is not winding properly!
To retime the hoseguide, these steps must be followed:
- 1) Pull all the irrigation tube out from the hoseReel, The elbow to which the tube is fastened must be 45
degrees behind the axle centre line on the bottom of the spool. Be especially careful not to pull the
tube off the elbow.
- 2) Observe the position of the hoseguide carrier drive lug on the horizontal hoseguide chain. (The chain that
runs left to right just in back of the auto shut-off bar). The drive lug must be in its most extreme position
(half way around the sprocket) and on the same side of the hosereel as the spool elbow.
