Do not allow hose to retract without restraining recoil speed.
Note: E�-Coil�� models are designed to retract at a slow controlled speed.

4. Apply line pressure and inspect for leaks. Periodically check hose for improper wear and
swivel for possible leaks.
5. 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.
6. Lubrication is not required.
Installation of Outlet Hose
1. Securely stabilize the reel.
2. Wind the reel drum clockwise (facing the swivel) until the spring is tight.
3. Use Extreme Caution! Back off approximately two turns and lock the reel drum to keep from
rotating.
4. Insert the male fitted end of the hose through the roller guide arm and through the cutout in
the side of the drum flange.
5 The male hose fitting should now be on the outside of the drum. Apply thread sealant,
connect hose fitting to the swivel joint and secure the hose rigid with the (two) hose clamps.
Note: The hose clamps restrain the hose when fully extended, preventing strain between the
fittings and swivel joint.
6. Carefully release the locking ratchet and slowly allow the hose to retract onto the reel.
Spring Tension Arrangement
1. Release line pressure prior to making spring adjustments.
2. Disconnect inlet hose.
3. Pull out approximately 6 feet (2 m) of hose and latch the drum.
4. Add or subtract one wrap of hose as desired to acquire the proper tension on the reel.
Note: Spring tension adjustment is accomplished by adding wraps of hose around the drum (to
increase tension) or subtracting wraps of hose (to decrease tension).
Improper tensioning of spring or adding too many prewraps may cause damage to spring
mechanism. Only authorized personnel should make adjustments.
5. Unlatch drum and check for proper tension. Connect Inlet hose.
