Balcrank Premium EV Series, Operation, Installation, Maintenance And Repair Manual

Maintenance

Replacing Service Hose:

1.  Be sure the pressure supply has been 

     relieved when replacing the service hose.  

Follow the pressure relief procedures 

     below.

2.  Fully extend the service hose, stop the 

     reel where the hose swivel union is 

     accessible and where the stop pawl is 

     securely latched.

3.  Secure spool from accidental rotation 

     by placing a C-clamp onto the spool.  

     See figure 12 for proper placement of 

     C-clamp.  This will keep the spool from 

     rotating while installing the new service 

     hose.

4.  Disconnect and remove service hose.

5.  Uncoil the new hose and assemble the 

     bumper stop, attach the new hose to the 

     reel. and remove the C-clamp carefully.

6.  Firmly grasp the hose and pull it, to 

     release the stop pawl.  Then Slowly 

     retract the hose.

NOTE:

  Check the power spring tension.  

The hose must pull out and retract fully.  

Wrap 

ONE 

more loop onto or off the spool, 

extend the hose, and latch it.  Do this as 

many times as necessary until power spring 

has the desired tension.

Never

 allow the reel to spin freely.  Doing so 

will cause the hose to spin out of control, which 

could cause serious injury if hit by the hose.

WARNING

!

Replacing the Swivel:

1.  Be sure the pressure supply has been 

     relieved when replacing the swivel.

Follow the pressure relief procedures 

     below.

2.  Disconnect the inlet hose.

3.  Remove the old swivel assembly and 

replace it iwth the new assembly.  

NOTE:  

the new assembly may look different from 

the old assembly, the important item to be 

sure of is thread size and pressure style (ex:  

L.P., M.P. or H.P.) used on your reel.

(Refer to parts listing on page 1 for proper 

swivel repair or replacement kit.)

NOTE:

  A spring wound too tightly stops 

rotating before the hose is fully extended.  

This condition will place excessive strain 

on the hose and power spring that could 

damage and/or shorten the life of the reel.

 Pressure Relief Procedure: 

Follow this procedure before maintaining and/or repairing 

your Premium Hose Reel and/or any part of the system.

1)  Disconnect the air to the pump.

2)  Point dispensing valve away from yourself and others
