SAFETY
Personal injury and/or equipment damage may result if proper safety precautions are not observed.
• Ensure that reel is properly installed before connecting input and output hoses.
• Bleed fluid/gas pressure from system before servicing reel.
• Before connecting reel to supply line, ensure that pressure does not exceed maximum working pressure rating of reel.
• Remember, even low pressure is very dangerous and can cause personal injury or death.
• Be aware of machinery and personnel in work area.
• If a leak occurs in the hose or reel, remove system pressure immediately.
• A high tension spring assembly is contained within the reel. Exercise extreme caution.
• Pull hose from reel by grasping the hose itself, not the control valve.
• If reel ceases to unwind or rewind, remove system pressure immediately. Do not pull or jerk on hose!
• Treat and respect the hose reel as any other piece of machinery, observing all common safety practices.

Installation Instructions
WARNING: Ensure that reel, hose, and equipment are properly grounded. Use an ohmmeter to check ground continuity.
Mounting
CAUTION: Unless reel was specified differently when ordering, maximum installation height is 16 feet. Do not exceed
this distance.
Maximum Operating Temperature:
High pressure (4000 p.s.i.) = 210°F (99°C)
1. Unpack and inspect reel for damage. Turn spool by hand to check for smooth operation. Check for completeness.
2. Configure reel for top, side or bottom hose dispensing by removing bolts from one side of the guide roller bracket
and loosening the four guide arm bolts on each side of the hose reel. Remove each guide arm then reinstall in the
desired configuration.
3. Position reel on floor, wall, or ceiling. Secure into place using four (customer supplied) bolts.
Installing the Input Hose
WARNING: Ensure that supply line pressure does not exceed maximum working pressure rating of reel. Apply pipe
thread sealant to all threads on standard reels. Do not overtighten connection. Recommended torque not to exceed
70 ft. lb.
CAUTION: Use flexible hose connection at input. Do not use rigid plumbing. The use of rigid plumbing may void war-
ranty.
1. Apply thread sealant as shown in Figure B and connect input hose to main shaft input Figure C.
2. Tighten securely, ensuring a sealed connection has been made.
