Air compressor and air hose reel safety
- Maintain the product with care. Inspect hose periodically and, if damaged, have it repaired by an authorized technician.
- Install an in-line shutoff valve to allow immediate control over the air supply in an emergency, even if a hose is ruptured.
- Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment to do the work of a larger industrial tool. There are certain applications for which this product was designed. Do not modify this product and do not use this product for a purpose for which it was not intended.
- Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate any tool when you are tired.
- Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts, any broken parts, and any other condition that may affect proper operation. Any part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician.
- Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, only use identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty. Only use accessories intended for use with this product
WARNING: Do not exceed maximum pressure of 300 psi. Over pressurizing the tool may cause bursting, abnormal operation, breakage of the tool or serious injury to persons. Use compressed air regulated to a maximum pressure at or below the rated pressure of any attachments to this product
WARNING: Do not operate tool under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning labels on prescriptions to determine if your judgment or reflexes are impaired while taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not operate the tool.
WARNING: Use proper size and type of air connection hose. If an air connection hose is required, it must be of the proper size and type to supply the correct current to the tool without heating up. Check your compressor manual for extension cord information.
WARNING: Make sure that the product is securely seated on flat ground
before pressurizing.
WARNING: Do not release hose. Rapidly retracting hose could cause injury
and property damage. Maintain control of hose as it retracts.

Refer to the installation options below for more detail.
Mounting direct to wood stud
- Using stud-finder, locate stud and mark the location.
- Tape the drilling template on the wall at a convenient height, making sure the holes are centered on the stud.
- Check the hole centers with the level to ensure they are plumb.
- Drill 3 holes with a Ø1/8 in. masonry drill bit, 1-1/2 in. deep on the template centers.
- Drive mounting screws (C) into the holes, leaving about 1/4 in. between the wall and screw head.
- Hang the hose reel on the screws.
- Tighten the screws.
- Connect the inlet hose end with the air compressor.
Mounting to hollow wall and masonry wall
- Tape the drilling template on the wall at a convenient height, making sure the holes are between studs.
- Check the hole centers with the level to ensure they are plumb.
- Drill 3 holes with a Ø3/8 in. masonry drill bit on the template centers.
- Tap plastic anchors (D) into holes with a hammer or mallet.
- Drive mounting screws (C) into the plastic anchors (D), leaving about 1/4 in. between the wall and screw head.
- Hang the hose reel on the screws.
- Tighten the screws.
- Connect the inlet hose end with the air compressor.
WARNING: If not properly installed, there is a risk of falling. Make sure
your installation can support the loads above.
CAUTION: When using power tools such as an electric drill, please wear
eye protection.
WARNING: Ensure there are no live electrical wires or plumbing in the
wall at the location your are drilling.
Operation
Using the hose reel
- Slowly pull the hose out to the required length. A “clicking” noise will be heard every revolution of the inner drum, then the hose will lock in position.
- Pressurize hose reel and use your air-powered tool.
WARNING: Always hold the hose reel until it completely retracts into the
hose reel.
WARNING: The yellow tape marks the end of hose length. Release pressure
when not in use.
CAUTION: Do not release the hose allowing to rewind on its own
When finished using the hose reel
- Turn off air supply to hose reel.
- Release the pressure in the hose reel, by briefly activating your air-powered tool.
- Give the hose a short pull until the “clicking” noise stops, and walk the hose back to the hose reel.
- To avoid injury and damage, always hold the hose while it is retracting. Always hold the hose until it completely retracts into the hose reel.
- If the hose becomes tangled and will not retract, slowly pull out the hose past the tangled section and then allow the hose to slowly retract while guiding the hose back into the hose reel. Always ensure the hose is clean and not twisted.
Adjusting the stop-ball
- The stop-ball location can be adjusted to ensure the hose is always within reach.
- Pull out the hose to the desired length, ensuring the hose reel is locked (will not rewind).
- Open the latch on the stop ball and move it to the desired location.
- Re-latch the ball.
CAUTION: Always make sure the hose reel is locked before removing the stop-ball, and make sure the stop-ball is securely fastened before unlocking the reel.
Maintenance

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Causes | Solution |
|---|
- Air hose cannot be pulled smoothly.
- Air hose does not retract automatically.
| Coil spring is loosened or damaged.|
- Have a qualified service technician replace the coil spring.
Tool runs slowly or will not operate.|
- Low air pressure.
- Air pressure drops.
- Air hose leaks.
|
- Adjust air regulator to the correct working pressure for tool.
- Make sure that the air connection hose is the proper size and length. Do not use a multiple number of hoses connected together with quick connect fittings, which will result in pressure drops and reduce tool power.
- Tighten and seal all NPT threads of hose fittings in your air line with thread sealant tape. Replace if the hose is damaged.
