Operating Instructions
⚠WARNING
 Wear ANSI Z87.1 compliant safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields when assembling
and using the hose reel.
 Do not exceed the max working pressure of 300 PSI.
 Never attach any tool or accessory to the hose unless it is capable of safely operating at a
pressure greater than the supply pressure.
 If a leak occurs in the hose or reel, remove system pressure immediately.
 If reel ceases to unwind or rewind, remove system pressure immediately.
 Do not kink the hose. Do not step on the hose or drive or drag objects over the hose. Do not place
any objects on the hose or hose reel.
 Pull the hose from the reel by grasping the hose itself, not the valve.
 Use soap and water when checking for air leaks. Exposure of skin directly to pressurized air or
fluids could result in severe bodily injury. Remember, even low pressure is very dangerous and
can cause personal injury or death.
 Avoid accidentally releasing the reel’s latching mechanism. The hose reel is under tension and
accidental release can cause a wildly spinning reel and personal injury.
 If necessary, adjust the spring tension on the reel by adding or removing wraps of hose from the
spool, one wrap at a time, until desired tension is obtained.
 To avoid damage to the hose reel, always hold on to the cable while it is rewinding.
1. Check the reel for the correct operation by slowly pulling out the hose.
2. To latch the reel, slowly pull out the hose to any point and release the hose to stop.
3. To unlatch the reel, slowly pull the hose after releasing and let the hose retract until the hose stop
rests against the hose guide.
Maintenance
Maintain the hose reel by adopting a program of conscientious repair and maintenance in accordance
with the following recommended procedures. It is recommended that the general condition of any tool
be examined before it is used. Keep your tool in good repair. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from
oil and grease. The following chart is based on a normal operation schedule.
Maintenance Interval
Maintenance Point
Every three months
Clean the hose with a cloth dipped in warm water to remove
dirt and deposits and ensure correct rewinding.
Do not use detergents or solvents which could damage the
cable-winding materials.
