Installation Instructions
WARNING: Ensure that reel, hose, and equipment are properly grounded. Use an ohmmeter to check ground continuity.
Mounting
CAUTION: Unless reel was specified differently when ordering, maximum installation height is 16 feet. Do not exceed
this distance.
Maximum Operating Temperature:
Medium pressure (2000 p.s.i.) = 210°F (99°C)
1. Unpack and inspect reel for damage. Turn spool by hand to check for smooth operation. Check for completeness.
2. Configure reel for top, side or bottom hose dispensing by removing bolts from one side of the guide roller bracket
and loosening the four guide arm bolts on each side of the hose reel. Remove each guide arm then reinstall in the
desired configuration.

Installing the Input Hose
WARNING: Ensure that supply line pressure does not exceed maximum working pressure rating of reel. Apply pipe
thread sealant to all threads on standard reels. Do not overtighten connection. Recommended torque not to exceed
70 ft. lb.
