Service
Spring Canister
To replace the spring canister, follow the steps below.
Do not attempt to service the spring inside of the
spring canister. Read the warning below regarding the
spring hazard.
HOSE REEL SPRING HAZARD
The only service you should perform on
the reel spring is replacing the spring
cannister. The spring is under extreme
tension and could be propelled out of the opened
canister and cause serious injury.
WARNING
1. Ensure that the hose is fully retracted, to minimize
spring tension.
2. Remove the four bolts (7) that hold the spring
canister to the hose reel base. See Fig. 10.
3. Remove the old spring canister (8), and discard
the whole unit.
4. Adhere new dust seal (4) to flat side of spring
canister (8), concentric with center hole.
5. Install the new spring canister over the shaft (2)
and hub (10). To make this installation easier,
remove the plastic end cap (6).
6. Bolt the new spring canister to the base, and
replace the plastic end cap.
7. Rotate the reel in the direction of the arrow shown
in Fig.10 to achieve the proper amount of spring
tension (see Adjusting Spring Tension on page
13 for the approximate number of rotations).
WARNING
Never allow the reel to spin freely. Doing so
causes the hose to spin out of control, which could
cause serious injury if you are hit by the hose.
