replacing inlet/output hoses only. Refer all
other repairs to an authorized service person
or directly to Lincoln. Failure to do so may
result in personal injury and/or equipment

Caution
Add wraps to achieve the desired tension
without exceeding the winding mechanism’s
spring capacity. Properly tensioned reels
allow all hose to be freely removed from the
spool until the point of U-bolt contact.
Failure to comply will result in damage to
the winding mechanism.
Danger
Do not attempt to open the riveted spring
canister. Spring canister contains deadly
stored energy. Release all pressure in hose
before working on hose reel. Remove all
spring tension before disassembling the hose
reel.
Failure to comply will result in death or
serious injury.
Danger
Rewind hose on reel, then slowly release
pressure from system before performing the
following procedures.
Failure to comply may result in death or
serious injury.
Warning
Apply pipe thread sealant to all threads on
standard reels. Do not over-tighten connec-
tion. Recommended torque not to
exceed 70 ft.lb
(94,9 Nm).
Failure to comply may result in serious
personal injury and/or damage to equipment.
Danger
Do not release latch mechanism. Use
extreme caution; reel under tension.
If necessary, adjust spring tension on reel
by manually adding or removing wraps of
hose from spool, one wrap at a time, until
desired tension is obtained. Manually add
wraps to increase tension. Remove wraps to
decrease tension.
Failure to comply may result in death or
serious injury.
