Installation
A flexible hose connection must be used
between the hose reel inlet and the source
of supply to prevent possible misalignment
and binding. Series 80000, D80000, SD, and
9000: the swivel union is packed separately in
the reel carton, use teflon tape or pipe sealant
to assure a satisfactory seal when installing
swivel. Do not over tighten.
Mounting & Guide Arm Adjustment
The hose reel is equipped for universal
mounting so that it can be mounted on a
structurally sound floor, wall, or ceiling;
whichever provides maximum performance.
The hose guide arm must be rotated to a
position that allows the hose to feed through
the roller brackets with minimal bending.
Replace the fasteners. When rotating guide
arm, the U-bolt must be placed in the proper
location, otherwise the reel might "latch or
lock out" during use. Refer to complete
version of online manual for proper U-Bolt
locations (not applicable for Series RT,
DP5000, DP7000, or SD).
Lubrication
Hose reel spring and bearings are factory-
lubricated and require no further lubrication.
Install/Replace the Hose
CAUTION: Exercise extreme caution when
adding or removing spring tension. Ensure
reel base is fastened down prior to
adjusting tension. Do not move spool
while tightening hose or latch will disengage.
Do not let go of the hose until latch
mechanism is engaged.
