components when pulling hose from reel, pull on the
hose itself and not on the control valve or swivel. Do not
pull or jerk on the hose when fully withdrawn from the
reel.
INSTALLATION
DELIVERY HOSE INSTALLATION
(MAXIMUM SPRING TENSION)
For smoother operation during retraction and to increase
hose life, de-tack hose by wiping entire hose length with a
light lubricating oil before installing on reel.
Assemble outlet adapter to hose and tighten securely. Use
teflon tape on threads to prevent leaks.
See Figure (1). Insert hose end with outlet adapter through
roller outlet and secure to axle head with U-keeper. Make
sure seal is installed correctly in axle before assembling.
From open side of reel (with outside support removed), loop
entire length of hose onto reel in a clockwise direction. Pull
hose out through roller outlet to wind power spring. When
hose is completely extended, latch reel to prevent it from un-
winding.
Continue to add loops of hose and pull out hose until power
spring winds tight.
Allow reel to retract two full revolutions and latch reel. Care-
fully unloop remaining hose from reel.
Position hose clamp so that approximately 1/2 loop of hose
remains on reel and latching does not occur when hose is fully
extended.
IMPORTANT
INSTRUCTIONS
Perform the following instructions as stated to correctly set
the power spring for maximum tension.
To avoid damaging reel components, always make sure
hose clamp is properly installed.
