Installation–<strong>Hose</strong><br />

To install a hose on a hose reel with the proper amount<br />

of spring tension, follow these steps:<br />

WARNING<br />

Always wear heavy, non-slippery gloves when<br />

adjusting the spring tension to protect your hands<br />

from being cut on the hose reel.<br />

1. Clamp the hose reel to a flat surface.<br />

2. Place a piece of tape on the side of the reel flange<br />

as a visual reference point for counting reel rotations.<br />

3. Unlatch the reel drum, and allow it to slowly rotate<br />

until all spring tension has been released. Then<br />

rotate the reel in the direction of the arrow shown<br />

in Fig. 5 to achieve the proper amount of spring<br />

tension for the hose you are installing. The table<br />

below shows the number of rotations required for<br />

each hose.<br />

4. Attach a C-clamp to the reel flange, as shown in<br />

Fig. 5, to help prevent the reel from unintentionally<br />

becoming unlatched and spinning freely.<br />

WARNING<br />

Never allow the reel to spin freely. Doing so<br />

causes the hose to spin out of control, which could<br />

cause serious injury if you are hit by the hose.<br />

5. Uncoil and extend the new hose, and loosely<br />

install the hose stop (48) near the outlet end of the<br />

hose.<br />

6. Attach the other end of the new hose to the<br />

90-degree elbow (39).<br />

7. Remove the C-clamp from the reel flange.<br />

8. Pull the hose firmly enough to release the latch,<br />

then slowly allow the hose to retract.<br />

NOTE: Truck/tank–mount reels (noted on page 3)<br />

may require the hose/dispense valve be walked back<br />

into the hose reel for full retraction.<br />

9. Ensure that the hose can be pulled out all the way<br />

and that it fully retracts. If it does not pull out or<br />

retract properly, see Adjusting Spring Tension<br />

on page 13.<br />

10. Position the hose stop so that the hose extends far<br />

enough for all operators to reach the dispensing<br />

valve.<br />

NOTE: Release the reel only at points where it is<br />

securely latched.<br />
