Troubleshooting
1. Follow Pressure Relief Procedure, page 9, before
checking or repairing the equipment.
2. Check all possible problems and causes before
disassembling.
Problem Cause Solution
The reel does not retract Worn or broken spring Replace spool. See pages 24 - 25.
Oil leaking from hose reel swivel Worn or damaged swivel seals Replace swivel. See page 38 to
determine the swivel needed. See
Hose Reel Swivel Kit Manual for
repair information.
Fluid delivery is slow Pressure setting is too low Increase pressure
Hose stacks over reel spool Retracting the hose too quickly;
retracting the hose to one side of
the guide, allowing the hose to
stack off to one side of the spool,
and eventually over the spool;
allowing the spring to unwind the
reel.
Retract the hose slowly, making
sure it is centered so that the hose
is directly below, or in line, with the
hose guide.
