INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
MOUNTING
Caution: Unless reel was specified differently when ordering,
maximum installation height is 16 feet. Do not exceed this dis-
tance. Observe all applicable NEC, OSHA & local codes when
installing this equipment.
1. Unpack and inspect reel for damage. Turn by hand to check
for smooth operation. Check for completeness.
2. Configure reel for top, side, or bottom-wind hose dispensing
by removing bolts (or nuts) (1) securing guide arm bracket
(2). Caution: When changing guide arm positions, the
U-bolt must be placed in the proper location as instructed
in figure A below. The reel can "latch out" during use if
this instruction is not adhered to.
3. Determine new guide arm bracket location and remove corre-
sponding bolts, (or nuts). Position guide arm bracket to reel
and replace bolts (or nuts).
4. Position reel on floor, wall or ceiling. Secure into place using
four (customer supplied) screws or bolts (3).
INSTALLING THE INPUT HOSES
Caution: Apply teflon tape to all input connections to insure a
proper seal.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
User servicing of the reel is limited to replacing the input/output
hoses or swivel only. Refer all other repairs to an authorized ser-
vice person or directly to Reelcraft Industries, Inc. Failure to do so
can result in personal injury and/or equipment damage and may
void the warranty.
Caution: Rewind hose on reel, then bleed pressure from system
before performing the following procedures.
1. Replace hoses in accordance with procedures given in
"Installation Instructions" section of this manual.
REPLACING THE SWIVEL
Caution: Remove supply line pressure before performing the
following procedure.
1. Remove supply line from swivel.
2. Remove swivel assembly from inlet shaft.
3. Apply thread sealant to threaded connection and re-install
swivel assembly to inlet shaft by reversing steps 1 & 2.
ADJUSTMENTS
Caution: Use extreme caution; reel under tension. Avoid releas-
ing latch mechanism. If necessary, adjust spring tension of reel by
adding or removing wraps of hose from spool, one wrap at a time,
until desired tension is obtained. Add wraps to increase tension.
Remove wraps to decrease tension. When adding wraps of hose,
be careful not to exceed the winding mechanisms spring capacity.
Add just enough wraps of hose to achieve the desired tension.
Damage to the winding mechanism will result if spring is over-
tensioned.
