REEL USE AND CARE
 Check for damaged parts before each use. Carefully check that the reel will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Replace damaged or worn parts immediately. Never operate the
reel with a damaged part.
 Disconnect the air or fluid supply from the reel before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
tool accidentally.
 Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for use with the reel.
Accessories that may be suitable for one reel may create a risk of injury when used with another
reel. Never use an accessory that has a higher operating pressure than the reel itself.
 Inspect the reel, hose, and accessories for damage or excessive wear before each use. If you find
damage do not use the reel.
Specific Operation Warnings
 Wear ANSI Z87.1 compliant safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields when assembling
and using the hose reel.
 Assemble the hose reel on a clean workbench.
 Keep children away from the work area. If not in use, store out of the reach of children.
 Ensure that reel is properly installed before connecting input and output hoses.
 Make sure incoming pressure does not exceed the rated pressure (300 PSI) for reel.
 Before connecting a pressure source, ensure that supply pressure does not exceed maximum
working pressure rating of reel.
 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.
 Bleed fluid/gas pressure from reel before servicing it.
 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.
