INSTALLATION and MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

14" & 19" SPRING OPERATED HOSE REELS

With Old Dog & Ratchet Design, Mfg. Before 1-1-10

NOTE: These instructions are written for machine pull reels.

☞If installing or servicing hand pull reel, use only those steps marked with hand

☞

All units are provided with right hand rotation unless otherwise

specified. This means that hose rotates clockwise to wind

hose when viewing reel from spring (inlet) side...opposite

when viewed from swivel joint (spooled hose connection) side.

Clock-type springs provide power for hose take-up. Spring

must be pretensioned at time of installation to insure that

tension is applied to hose at all times.

INSTALLATION

1. If hose is to be coupled to a machine, insure that

machinery is at position closest to reel.

☞2. Securely mount reel in desired position using 3/8"(M10)

bolts. Be sure spool centerline is aligned with hose run.

NOTE: E-Z PULL

reel should be mounted 3' maximum

above floor. Reel will not “LIFT” hose overhead.

☞3. Position hose guide. Guide must be oriented so hose pays

off reel in a straight line without bends. If

E-Z PULL

hose should pay-out horizontally.

☞4. Remove hose stop, if attached to hose. Rotate spool

counter-clockwise (when viewed from swivel joint side)

until all hose is wound on reel...not extending through

hose guide. See Figure 1.

☞5. Pre-tension reel by rotating spool in clockwise direction

(when viewed from swivel joint side). Full 360˚turns

should match last digit in model number on serial plate.

☞6. Engage ratchet lock to prevent spool from unwinding.

☞7. Feed hose end out through hose guide and pay-out

hose to maximum working length. At least one turn of

hose should remain on spool. If spool locks up prior to

reaching required length, either reel was over-tensioned

during step 5 or reel capacity has been exceeded.

Failure to correct this condition will result in shortened

spring life and possible damage to other reel components.

☞8. Attach hose stop and adjust free length of hose.

Connect hose to machine or add attachments.

9. If machine pull application or if no-lock operation is

desired, disengage ratchet lock. See following section.

☞10. Connect supply hose to fitting on spring side of reel.

☞11.Turn on pressure to reel. Test for leaks.

RATCHET LOCK

Reel is shipped with ratchet lock “engaged”. If constant spring

tension is required, lock may be disengaged by locating and

removing the selector plate anchor screw on the frame, rotat-

ing the selector plate to disengage position, and replacing and

tightening the selector plate screw.

MAINTENANCE

Bearings and springs are prelubricated and require no periodic

maintenance.

SPRING REPLACEMENT

The unique SAFETYCHANGE® spring motor consists of a

spring sealed within a housing. A replacement spring is

supplied sealed in its housing and the old unit should be

discarded completely.

☞1. Turn off supply pressure to reel.

☞2. Disconnect hose from machine or remove attachments .

☞3. Wind hose onto reel to relieve all spring tension.

☞4. Using a 3/16" allen wrench, loosen socket head screw in

main shaft clamp nut. Support spool and spin nut off shaft.

☞5. Remove entire spool and spring motor assembly

from frame.

☞6. Remove V-Ring seal from spring assembly.

☞7. Remove nuts holding spring assembly and slide spring

assembly off main shaft.

☞8. Slide new spring assembly onto shaft and reassemble

reel by reversing above steps.

☞9. Adjust spring tension. Refer to SPRING ADJUSTMENT.

HOSE REMOVAL

Use the following procedure to remove worn or damaged hose

from reel prior to installation of new hose.

1. Move machine serviced by reel to a position closest to

reel. Spring will still be under pre-tension at this point.

☞2. Turn off supply pressure to reel.

☞3. Disconnect hose from machine or other attachments.

Remove hose stop and allow hose to retract onto

spool. Ensure all tension is off spring by manually

If mounting overhead, provide safety chain between reel

base and mounting surface to prevent potential reel drop.

CAUTION

Do not attempt to remove spring from its housing. Clock-

type springs can be dangerous to handle. Removal of

spring from housing could result in personal injury.

☞4. Remove hose from spool by looping over spool flange.

☞5. Remove tube clamp from spool.

☞6. Loosen hose clamp affixing hose to hose barb on

swivel joint fitting located on inside of spool.

☞7. Pull hose out of hole in spool.

☞8. Slide tube clamp off hose.

☞8. Install new hose following directions below.

HOSE INSTALLATION

Use the following procedure to replace hose or if reel was

ordered without hose. Refer to HOSE INSTALLATION

REFERENCE DRAWING, below.

☞1. Unspool new hose from shipping spool and lay out to

eliminate twist.

NOTE: This step is not essential, but will aid in winding

operation of the reel and prolong hose life.

☞2. Remove tube clamp from spool and slide onto hose.

Be sure tube clamp is orientated so that loop on clamp

will be next to outside spool flange. (See drawing below.)

☞3. Feed bare end of hose through hole in spool hub

and connect to hose barb on swivel joint fitting.

Secure with hose clamp. (See drawing below).

☞4. Align tube clamp on hose with hole in spool hub.

Fasten with socket head screw, washers and nut.

☞5. Wind the hose onto the reel spool by hand rotating

spool in direction it turns free of spring tension.

(Normally clockwise when viewed from spring side)

☞6. Adjust hose stop (not used on machine pull reel).

☞7. Complete working end connections.

SPRING ADJUSTMENT

Adjust tension by adding wraps (increasing tension) or remov-

ing wraps (decreasing tension) from the spool.

1. Pull about 10' of hose, allowing spool to rotate.

INCREASE TENSION: Without allowing spool to rotate,

hand feed hose back through hose guide until loop is

large enough to slip onto spool. Add two or three wraps

until desired tension is achieved. See Figure 3.

DECREASE TENSION: Without allowing spool to rotate,

hand feed hose back through guide to provide slack.

Remove one or two wraps from spool. See Figure 4.

2. Test reel operation.

DO NOT ALLOW SPOOL TO ROTATE

If machine pull reel, move machinery to position closest to

reel before adjusting spring tension.

Adjusting tension with hose extended may result in dam-

age to reel or personal injury.
