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.

• Ensure that working pressure and temperature do not exceed rating of
reel.

• Be aware of machinery and personnel in work area.

• If a leak occurs in the hose or reel, remove from service immediately.

• A high tension spring assembly is contained within the reel. Exercise
extreme caution.

• If reel ceases to unwind or rewind, remove from service immediately.
Do not pull or jerk on hose!

• Other than replacing the hoses, refer all other repairs only to an
authorized service person or directly to Reelcraft. Failure to do so
may void the warranty.

Mounting

1. Position reel on floor, wall, or ceiling. Secure into place using
four (customer supplied) bolts (1).

Connecting the Hoses

1. Turn reel until spring is tight. Back off three turns, then latch.

2. Position input hose to input adapter (2). Secure into place with
hose clamp (3).

3. Position output hose to output adapter (4). Secure into place
with hose clamp (5).

4. Release latch and wind hose onto reel.

Installation Instructions

Adjustments

WARNING: Use extreme caution; reel under tension. Avoid

releasing latch mechanism.
If necessary, adjust spring tension on reel by adding or removing wraps

of hose from spool, one wrap at a time, until desired tension is obtained.
Add wraps to increase tension. Remove wraps to decrease tension.

CAUTION: When adding wraps of hose, be careful not to exceed

the winding mechanism’s spring capacity. Add just enough wraps
of hose to achieve the desired tension. Damage to the winding
mechanism will result if spring is over-tensioned.
