REEL KLEEN RK15
ADJUSTMENTS
A.
Ratchet lock:
The ratchet lock works with reel mounted in any position and needs no adjustment.
To disable ratchet, remove the ratchet spring (41), ratchet prawl (44) and shaft lever
(40).
B.
Hose guide:
The canopy guide (9) may be set at any position around the drum assembly (8).
Note
: The guide must be set so the hose pays off the reel in a straight line without
bends.
To adjust canopy guide:
1.
Remove locknut (13) and clamp assembly (14).
2.
Rotate canopy guide (90) to desired pay-out location.
The guide can be removed for two-way hose pay-out.
C.
Spring tension:
Tension may be adjusted before or after final installation of reel and connection of
hose has been made.
To adjust tension:
1.
Pull hose out to determine if more or less tension is desired.
2.
Place wrench flat ends of mains shaft (25).
3.
While holding wrench firmly, pull spring pin on cover (5) until it allows main shaft
to rotate.
4.
Turn main shaft (25) counter-clockwise to decrease tension and clockwise to
increase.
5.
Re-engage spring pin when desired tension has been set. The pin will set every
½ turn.
Caution
:
Pull hose out completely to ensure enough spring revolutions
remain for operating. Also, always leave at least 1-2 turns between full
extension and when the spring is wound tight (bottomed out). If entire
hose assembly cannot be pulled out, decrease spring tension until full
extension is possible. Failure to test in this manner can cause spring
damage.
