MAINTENANCE & REPAIR
INSERTING THE LOCKING PIN
SERVICE TOOL
In the interest of safety we have designed
and constructed a special service tool, a
locking pin that when inserted through the
outer cases it locks the drum from being
able to rotate when carrying out service
work.
We recommend that this tool be used to
prevent damage to the reel or the service
person.
By simply rotating the drum, pulling the
hose slowly and looking into the service
pinhole shown below you will see the line
up holes; insert the pin right through the
reel so that it protrudes out the opposite
side.
CHECKING FOR LEAKS
Like all moving and rotating components
there is a need to make regular mainte-
nance checks. Some of these checks
are very simplistic and only require a
visual inspection others require service
work to be carried out on items such as
seals and O-rings.
For O-ring and seal servicing refer to
"Service or replace O-rings and seals"
further in the manual.
A soapy water test is the most simplistic.
Soapy water brushed around each joint
will soon indicate a leak when bubbles
appear.

SERVICE OR REPLACE O-RINGS AND
SEALS
As with normal and scheduled mainte-
nance checks, O-rings and seals will need
to be serviced or replaced from time to
time. The task of replacing the O-rings
and seals is quite simple and should only
take a few minutes following the proce-
dure below.
Pull the hose all the way out of the
reel and using the service locking tool
described in "Inserting the locking pin
service tool" fix the service tool in posi-
tion. This locks the reel and makes it safe
to carry out repairs.
Note: Never open the tension side plate
or adjust tension with the hose fully or
partially extended. All the hose must be
fully wound onto the reel.
Disconnect the inlet supply from the inlet
fitting on the reel. Remove the six self-
tapping screws in the inlet side plate.
Remove the side plate and the swivel. At
the axle end of the swivel, remove the
circlip (snap ring) and slide the swivel
sleeve off the swivel shaft.
This will expose the O-rings and seals -
remove these with an appropriate tool.
Step 1
Step 2
Note: Do not score or scratch the
O-ring, seal or sealing surfaces.
Replace the O-rings and seals and apply
an appropriate lubricant.
Note: Use only Reelcraft original seals
and O-rings, failure to do so will void
warranty.
Re-assemble the swivel and refit into
position, replace the self-tapping screws,
holding the hose. Remove the service tool
and rewind the hose. Reconnect the inlet
supply and check for leaks. Refer to
"Checking for leaks" earlier in the manual.
HOW TO ADD OR REMOVE TENSION
Note: Never add or remove tension when
the hose is extended from the reel. The
hose must always be fully wound on the
hose reel.
Add tension - turn clockwise
Remove tension - turn counter-clock-
wise
261909 - Service
Tensioning Tool
With the hose fully recoiled in the reel
remove the two most inner self-tapping
screws locked on the tension ring. With a
"C" spanner, or the tensioning service
tool, rotate the cap clockwise one full turn.
The tensioning cap is a ratchet system so
you will note the clicking as you rotate the
cap. Always have the screws vertical when
finished, this way you will always know
you have a full turn.
