HOSE REMOVAL

Use the following procedure to remove worn or damaged hoses from reel prior to installation of new hoses.

1.Move machine serviced by reel to a position closest to reel. Spring will still be under pre-tension at this point.

2.Turn off supply pressure to reel.

3.Disconnect hoses from machine or other attachments. Remove hose stops, if installed, and allow hoses to retract onto spool. Ensure all tension is off spring by manually rotating spool (normally clockwise when viewed from spring side).

4.Unwrap hoses without allowing spool to turn.

5.Disconnect hoses from elbows inside spool wrapper.

6.Install new hoses following directions below.

HOSE INSTALLATION

Use the following procedure to replace hoses or if reel was ordered without hoses. Refer to HOSE INSTALLATION REFERENCE DRAWING, below.

1.Unspool new hose from shipping spool and lay out to eliminate twist.

NOTE: This step is not essential, but will aid in winding operation of the reel and prolong hose life.

2.Connect hoses to elbows inside spool wrapper. (See drawing below.)

3.Wind the hose onto the reel spool by hand rotating spool in direction it turns free of spring tension. (Normally clockwise when viewed from spring side)

4.Complete working end connections.

5.Pretension reel and complete installation as described in REEL INSTALLATION section.
