MAINTENANCE
6. Apply the pre-tension to the power spring by turning the spool the number of turns indicated below, depending on the power spring version
and the hose length (fig. 5):
Hose length High Volume power spring
15 m
20 m
25 m
30 m
Do not apply more tension than stated, as the power spring could be damaged.
7. Pass the hose end through the roller outlet to the desired length, lock the spool with the ratchet in the nearest position and place the hose stopper.
8. Fully unwind and rewind the hose to make sure the power spring is correctly tensioned.
SPRING LOAD ADJUSTMENT
If you wish to increase or decrease the power spring tension:
1. Pull the hose out till the first ratchet locking position.
2. Remove the hose stopper and pull the hose out in order to unlock the ratchet.
3. Allow the hose to fully wind into the spool, applying some counter-force in order to avoid the spool to turn freely.
NOTE: beware the spool may get loose and start turning freely.
4. Turn the spool to increase or decrease the power spring tension (fig. 5).
5. Pass again the hose end through the roller outlet and place the hose stopper in the desired position.
6. Make sure that the hose fully winds and unwinds properly. If it does not, repeat the previous steps until it does.
