HOSE INSTALLATION THE FIRST TIME
NOTE: During hose installation, tighten the U-bolt just till the hose
gets slightly deformed. Do not overtighten the U-bolt, since the
hose could be damaged.
To install the hose the first time, follow the next steps:
1. Make sure the power springs are relaxed, with no tension, in such a
way that the spool does not try to turn (the ratchet must be
unlocked).
2. Connect the new hose to the gooseneck (2), place the U-bolt (1) (Fig. 5)
in such a way that it firmly holds the hose against the spool, and start
to wind the hose into the spool turning the spool manually.
3. Once the hose is completely wound around the spool (the power
springs still will be with no tension), apply the pretension to the power
springs by turning the spool the number or turns stated in the table
depending on the hose length (see table), turning in positively
direction as shown in (Fig. 6). Do not apply more tension than stated,
as the power springs could be damaged.
4. 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 (Fig. 7) making sure the latch keeps accessible.
5. Fully unwind and rewind the hose to make sure the power springs are
correctly tensioned. The hose reel is equipped with 2 strong power
springs working in parallel to assist during the hose rewinding.
HOSE REPLACEMENT
NOTE: During hose installation, tighten the U-bolt just till the hose
gets slightly deformed. Do not overtighten the U-bolt, since the
hose could be damaged.
1. Ensure the reel is firmly attached. Take the hose fully out and let the
spool blocked by the ratchet mechanism.
NOTE: beware the spool to get loose and start turning freely.
2. Remove the U-bolt (1) by loosening its nuts and disconnect the hose
from the gooseneck (2) (Fig. 5).
3. Take away the hose from the spool and remove the hose stopper in
order to use it with the new hose.
4. Connect the new hose to the gooseneck. Place the U-bolt in such a
way that it firmly holds the hose against the spool, and pull the hose
in order to unlock the ratchet.
5. Allow the hose to slowly wind into the spool and ensure to finish with
the whole hose inside the reel and the power springs with no tension
(in such a way that the spool does not try to turn).
6. Apply the pre-tension to the power springs by turning the spool
towards positive direction, the number of turns indicated in (Fig. 6),
depending on the hose length. 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 (Fig. 7) making sure the latch keeps accessible.
8. Fully unwind and rewind the hose to make sure the power spring is
correctly tensioned. The hose reel is equipped with 2 strong power
springs working in parallel to assist during the hose rewinding.
