INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Inspection

Unpack and inspect the reel for damage.
Turn the reel by hand to check for smooth
operation. Check for completeness.

Mounting of all hose reels
NOTE: Ensure that mounting surface is

flat to prevent binding on reel after it is
mounted.

1. Two 1/2” diameter mounting holes are
located at the base of each side
support panel (2 each). Mount reel

using four (customer supplied) bolts;

tightening them securely to ensure a
solid, rigid attachment.

2. Perform the following steps only after

all other installation steps, pertaining
to your particular reel, are
accomplished. Refer to page 4 for

special instructions.

NOTE: A flexible hose connection must be

used to compensate for any offset between

the supply line and the reel swivel.

3. Apply thread compound to all threads.

4. Thread male connector of supply line
into swivel. Tighten securely.

Manual Driven Reels

Additional mounting instructions are not
required.

Power Drive Reels

1. Determine which end of reel motor is
mounted on. If the original factory

configuration is not condusive to your

application, see section in the manual
titled “Modifcations”.

CAUTION: Remove all electrical power

when wiring. Do not “hot-wire”. Observe
all applicable NEC/OSHA requirements.

2. Ensure that supply and motor voltage

ratings are compatible.

3. Consult wiring diagrams and determine

which one is applicable to your reel.

4. Perform electrical wiring following
applicable diagram.

Connecting the hose
CAUTION: Do not connect the hose to the

connecting tube assembly until after hose
reel has been installed. Fully extend and
charge hose before winding on ot reel.
Momentarily open control valve, when
initially charging, to purge hose of gases.
When fluid appears at control valve, close
valve. This prevents flattening of the hose
and excessive pressure on the drum when

fluid supply is reinitialized at a later time.

1. Apply thread compound to all threads.

2. Hand thread male hose connector into

connecting tube assembly.

3. Using a wrench, firmly hold onto
connecting tube assembly while
tightening hose connector.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING-PREVENT STATIC
SPARKING: When working around flam-

mable liquids such as solvents, paints,
chemicals or petroleum products, ensure
that the hose reel, hose and the equipment

being serviced are properly grounded.

Use grounded hose(s) (static wire). Use
an ohmmeter to check continuity of the

ground circuit. Fire and/or explosion can

result if proper grounding is not achieved.
If reel is power or air driven, be careful of
chain/sprocket drive system. Keep hands
clear. Do not wear loose fitting cloth­ing. Pull hose from the reel by grasping
the hose itself, not the control handle or

swivel.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

Replacing the hose

1. Using a wrench, firmly hold onto the
connecting tube assembly while
removing hose connector.

2. Follow procedures for “Connecting the
hose” (refer to installation

instructions).
