4. Installation 4-1. Checks before i nstallation ・Please check whether the items ordered were received. (Check the name plate.) ・Check there is no damage to the product caused during transportation. 4-2. Installation Figure 6 ・ Take suf f icient care not to knock or drop the reel w hen handling.
■Fixed side hose (Refer to Figure 11 on page 10) (1) Attach the hose to spindle. NOTE: For hose without fitting, use and tie the sliding band. Remove nipple for hose with fitting. Then use seal tape around the screw part of hose fitting. (Refer to Figure 12 on page 10) 6.
6-2. Standard value of initial spring turns and calculation for upper limit of initial spring turns. (1) Check the total number of spring turns using Table 1 (page 6). (2) Rotate the drum by hand until the hose of the winding length is fully retracted, checking the number of drum turns.
7. Measure against Uneven Winding Uneven means the hose is wound on mainly one side of the drum width. winding The uneven winding will cause the hose to drop from the drum or recovery problems, resulting in damage to the hose. 7-1.
8. Safety Instructions on Use ・ Never approach t he moving parts during operation. There is a danger of being caught up. ・ Bef ore supplying diff erent f luid into the hose, take maker's advise. If there is no specif ication request on the type of f luid application, the product will be f or air, w ater (less than 80ºC), lubricating oil (Mineral type), grease (lithium type).

・ Never employ a sw ivel base or a standard turn table f or side attachment or inverse attachment. (1) Turn table Figure 18 This can swivel the reel up to 300゜(Refer to Figure 18). When turned, take care the fixed side hose is not put under excessive force or contacts the reel or surrounding objects.
10. Periodic Inspections ・ Periodically inspect the reel and replace any w orn or damaged parts. Caref ully check the hose has no damage. ・ If a malf unction is f ound during a periodic inspection, never reuse the reel but repair immediately.
11. Troubleshooting Malfunction Main causes Solution Direction of initial spring turn is Rotate in the hose paying out incorrect. direction. Unable to set the initial tension. The spring is broken. Replace with a new spring. The initial tension is insufficient. Increase the initial spring turns.
