2. Insert hose end through guide and connect to elbows inside spool wrapper. (See drawing below.)

5. 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)

2. Turn off supply pressure to reel.

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