Description

1. This series of hose reel is professional spring-driven model.
2. This series of hose reel is equipped with safety slow retraction function.
3. This series of hose reel can be pulled and stopped at any point during usage.

Tips:

2.  Failure to comply with these instructions could result in personal injury or property damage.
3. Keep these instructions in a convenient location for future reference.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. Make sure incoming line pressure does not exceed rated operating pressure for your model hose reel.
2. Use proper eye protection when assembling and using the hose reel.
3. Keep children away from the work area.
4. For long-time nonuse, please empty the hose.
5. If long-term preservation of the hose reel, please check whether the hose is aging and whether the connecting valve is leaking.
   WARNING: Exposure of skin directly to pressurized air, or fluid could result in severe bodily injury.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare tools for installation

For overhead ceiling and wall mounting: The installation height should not exceed 3m(10 feet) above the floor.
If the reel you have purchased does not have hose included, you will need to purchase and attach. Refer to specifications to determine appropriate hose and size.

1. The reel base has four 7/16″(or 11mm) drilled holes for mounting on a suitable flat surface.
   Figures 1.1 to 1.2 is a template showing the correct location of the 4 mounting holes in the base.

2. The reel is supplied with a hose guide roller bracket. The bracket position may require  repositioning depending on the selected reel mounting position. Figure 2.1 shows “TypicalMounting Positions”. If bracket position needs to be changed, do the following:
   (1) Pull out some hose and let reel latch.
   (2) Remove side cover and guide arm.
   (3) Rotate guide roller bracket to correct position, replace bolts and tighten.

3. Using the four holes in the base, mount the reel in the desired location. Be sure to use appropriate hardware and tighten securely.

4. Apply Teflon tape or pipe sealant to supply line threads, attach to reel inlet and tighten. The other end of incoming line can now be connected to desired supply source.

5.  If hose has been supplied with reel: Apply Teflon tape or pipe sealant to outlet fitting on reel hose, then attach to desired tool, or nozzle. Check connection for leakage, also check hose reel for correct operation. (Details see Operation section.)

6. If hose stopper adjustment is required, pull hose from reel and allow to latch at desired length. Loosen stopper bolts and slide stopper to a position close to the hose guide. Tighten stopper bolts, and unlatch the reel.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. When you want to use the hose, pull out the hose slowly to the desired length and release it. The hose may be retracted by a small section (about 10-15m) and get into a locked status for use.
2. When you want to retract the hose, pull the hose out about 4cm (1.6in) and release it. The hose can be retracted to the hose reel.
3. There is a slow retraction device installed on the hose reel. When the hose is in the retraction state, the slow retraction device will have a deceleration effect, which can significantly reduce the retraction speed of the hose (the longer the length of the retracted hose, the more obvious the deceleration effect), and ensure the operation safety of the hose when it is retracted.
4. Periodically check the hose condition for wear or damage, and check the swivel fitting for leakage. Replace any worn, damaged, or leaking parts.

Hose Replacement

1. Turn off air supply to reel and carefully release pressure in hose.

2.  Securely stabilize the reel by mounting or clamping to work surface.

3. Pull out all the old hose and lock the reel in this position.
   Caution: Make sure reel drum is securely locked by letting ratchet teeth engage.
   Replacement of Hose (continued)

4. Remove the two hose clamps connecting the hose to the reel.

5.  Carefully disconnect hose from the swivel joint on the side of the reel and discard old hose.

6. Feed new hose through guide and opening in drum, use sealant and connect to swivel.
   Reuse hose clamps on inside and outside of drum flange to reconnect hose.

7. Securely install stopper on other end of hose in the same position as before. Adjustments can be made later.
   WARNING:
   Notice direction of the red arrow label on.

8. Carefully release the drum latch, and while securely holding hose, slowly allow the hose to wind onto the reel.
   NOTE: Final spring adjustment is accomplished by adding or removing wraps of hose around the drum. (Refer to Spring Tension Adjustment).
   WARNING:
   The rewind spring is not serviceable. Do not remove spring cover.

SPRING CANISTER WARNING
If the rewind spring fails for any reason: For safety reasons, the manufacturer strongly recommends the replacement of the spring canister be carried out by a professional mechanic.

STRUCTURE FEATURES

1. The five uniformly distributed locking points in this series of hose reel, ensure that the hose can be locked at any position after being pulled out. The diagram of the locking structure is as follows:

2. This series of hose reels are equipped with safety slow retraction device. Compared with the reels without this function, the speed of hose retraction can be significantly reduced and the operation safety can be improved. The working status of the slow retraction device is as follows:
