SEVEN POSITION LOCKING BRACE
LEVELWIND retractable hose reels can swing freely on bracket
or can be locked in one of seven positions, allowing for specific
mounting requirements.
Standard bracket
1) Remove bracket rod from reel (SEE FIG. 5A).
2) Place seven position locking brace over bracket so
that bracket rod holes are aligned. Replace bracket rod so that
brace, reel & bracket are attached. Insert hitch-pin clip through
end of bracket rod (SEE FIG. 5B).
3) Rotate bracket so that it is at desired angle & lock
into place with fastener (SEE FIG. 5B).
Maintenance Procedures
TENSION ADJUSTMENT:
This reel is preloaded with spring tension that is set at the factory.
If the reel becomes completely untensioned, please identify
your hose reel model number referenced in the Factory Preset
Tensioning Table to find out how many turns are needed for proper
tensioning. If a heavy air tool is attached to the end of the hose,
you may need to add tension to overcome the weight of this tool.
DO NOT EXCEED one full turn past the number of turns listed in
the Factory Preset Tensioning Chart below.
