OPERATIONAL CHECK
•
Check reel for correct operation by slowly pulling out hose.
clicking noise will be heard after each half revolution of the drum.
•
LATCH the reel. Pull out the hose and allow it to slightly retract after
the first, second or third "click" is heard.
•
UNLATCH the reel. Slowly pull the hose until the clicking noise
stops, and then allow the hose to retract. The hose stopper should
rest against the roller hose guide.
CAUTION: DO NOT ALLOW HOSE TO RETRACT WITHOUT
RESTRAINING RECOIL SPEED. NEVER LET GO OF THE HOSE
WHEN REWINDING.
•
Apply line pressure and inspect for leaks. Periodically check hose
for improper wear and swivel for possible leaks.
•
Reels are shipped with approximately three pre-wraps of tension.
This is adequate for most applications. However, if your application
requires more or less tension, see "Spring Tension Adjustment"
instructions.
•
Lubrication is NOT required.
SPRING TENSION ADJUSTMENT

Remove outlet nozzle, gun, or tool. Remove hose stopper.
