Assembly Instructions To avoid a dangerous sudden release of pressure that can cause severe injury, ensure that the pressure source for the reel is turned off and the supply hose is not pressurized. Note: Before beginning assembly/installation, purchase appropriate hardware for mounting the reel. The mounting base has four 0.47” (12mm) holes for mounting on a suitable flat surface. Note: For overhead ceiling mounting: Install the reel at most 10 feet above the floor.
6. Carefully release drum latch, and slowly allow hose to wind onto the reel. Note: Final spring tension adjustment is accomplished by adding wraps of hose around the drum (to increase tension) or taking off wraps of hose (to decrease tension). Refer to: Adjustment of Spring Tension. Figure 2. Before Each Use ⚠WARNING Before connecting a pressure source, ensure that supply pressure does not exceed the maximum working pressure rating of the reel and 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. Check the reel for correct operation by slowly pulling out the hose. A clicking noise will be heard every half revolution of the drum.
