Safety

1.  Only use designated fluid media as spec-

ified by manufacturer. Contact manufac-
turer for information regarding other fluid 
media uses.

2.  Before connecting reel to supply line, en-

sure that pressure and temperature does 
not exceed maximum rating of reel.

3.  Remember, even low pressure is very 

dangerous and can cause personal in-
jury  or death.

4.  Do not exceed maximum installation 

height. The maximum installation height 
is 16 feet unless expressly specified.

5.  A  high  tension  spring  assembly  is      

contained within the reel. 

Exercise     

extreme caution

. Do not open tam-

per-resistant compartment in Series RT, 
80000, D80000, SD, 9000, and HD70000 
reels.

6.  Remove all spring tension before begin-

ning disassembly process.

7.  Ensure that reel is properly installed be-

fore connecting input and output hoses.

8.  Bleed fluid/gas pressure from sys-

tem before servicing reel.

9.  If a leak occurs in the hose or reel, re-

move system pressure immediately.

10.  Pull hose from reel by grasping the hose 

itself, not the hose end attachment.

11.  Operator should always walk hose back 

to reel during retraction.

12.  If reel ceases to unwind or rewind prop-

erly, remove system pressure immedi-
ately. Do not jerk excessively on the hose!

13.  Treat and respect the hose reel as any 

other piece of machinery, observing all 
common safety practices.

        

Installation

A flexible hose connection must be used be-
tween the hose reel inlet and the source of 
supply to prevent possible misalignment and 
binding. Series 80000, D80000, SD, and 
9000: the swivel union is packed separately in 
the reel carton, use teflon tape or pipe sealant 
to assure a satisfactory seal when installing 
swivel. Do not over tighten.

        

Mounting & Guide Arm 

      Adjustment

The hose reel is equipped for universal mount-
ing so that it can be mounted on a structurally 
sound floor, wall, or ceiling; whichever pro-
vides maximum performance. The hose guide 
arm must be rotated to a position that allows 
the hose to feed through the roller brackets 
with minimal bending. Replace the fasteners. 
When rotating guide arm, the U-bolt must be 
placed in the proper location, otherwise the 
reel might “latch or lock out” during use. 
Refer to complete version of online manual 
for proper U-Bolt locations (not applicable for 
Series RT, DP5000, DP7000, or SD). 

        

Lubrication

Hose reel spring and bearings are factory- 
lubricated and require no further lubrication.

        

Install/Replace the Hose

CAUTION:

  Exercise extreme caution when 

adding or removing spring tension. 

Ensure 

reel base is fastened down prior to ad-
justing tension.

 Do not move spool while 

tightening hose or latch will disengage. Do 
not let go of the hose until latch mechanism 
is engaged.

1.  To achieve proper tension, wind spool 

flange required number of turns (refer 
to Tech Bulletin online). Do not over-
tighten.

2.  Engage hose latching mechanism.

3.  Insert hose through roller guide.
4.  Connect hose fitting to female outlet.     

Install bumper stop at desired position.

        

Spring Tension Adjustments

To adjust spring tension, add or remove wraps 
of hose from the spool, one wrap at a time, 
until desired tension is obtained (

refer to 

safety cautionary statements

). Hose 

latching  mechanism  can  be  removed  for       
constant tension applications.

        

Repairs

To avoid damage and/or injury, extensive re-
pairs should only be performed by the manu-
facturer’s service center. Noncompliance may 
void warranty. 

CAUTION:

 Remove all spring 

tension and system pressure before disassem-
bly process.
