Series TH80000 Spring Driven Hose Reels

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 PSI) = 210°F (99°C)
1. Unpack and inspect reel for damage.
Turn by hand to check for smooth
operation. Check for completeness.
2. Configure reel for top, side or
bottom-wind hose dispensing by
removing bolts (2) from one side of
the guide roller bracket and loosening
the four guide arm bolts (3) on each
side of the hose reel. Rotate and
remove each guide arm then reinstall
in the desired configuration.
Caution: When changing guide arm
positions, the U-bolt must be placed in
the proper location as instructed in
figure A on page 1. The reel can
"latch out" during use if this
instruction is not adhered to.
3. Position reel on floor, wall, or ceiling.
Secure into place using four (customer
supplied) bolts.
INSTALLING THE INPUT HOSE(S)
Warning: Ensure that supply line pressure
does not exceed maximum working pressure
rating of reel. Apply pipe thread sealant where
applicable to all threads on standard reels. Do
not overtighten connection. Recommended
torque not to exceed 70 ft. lb.
Caution: Use flexible hose connection at
input. Do not use rigid plumbing.

For twin hydraulic reels:
1. Apply thread sealant as directed and
connect swivels (12 and 15) to main
shaft inputs (5) on opposite sides of
the reel.
2. Connect customer supplied supply
line hose (4) to swivel input (15) as
indicated in illustration. Note that the
supply line and return line hoses can
be switched as long as caution is
taken when installing output hoses;
paying attention to hook -up locations
on goosenecks.
3. Thread sealant is not recommended
on swivel union fittings.
INSTALLING THE OUTPUT HOSE(S)
Warning: Use extreme caution; reel
under tension. Avoid releasing latch
mechanism. Caution: Apply pipe thread
sealant where applicable to all threads on
standard reels. Do not overtighten connection.
Recommended torque not to exceed 70 ft. lb.
1. Manually turn sheave (6) until spring
is tight, back off 3 turns, then latch.
2. Route output hose(s) (7) through
roller bracket (1), U-bolts (8),
then through cutout (9) in spool as
indicated in illustration.
3. Connect output hose/s (7) to
gooseneck (10) paying special
attention to which gooseneck should
be used depending on application.
4. Verify U-bolt position conforms with
guide arm position using label inside
spool. Then tighten nuts (11) on
U-bolt (8).
5. Charge hoses. Momentarily open
control valve to purge hose of gases.
When fluid appears at control valve,
close valve. With hose fully charged,
release latch and wind output hose/s
onto reel.
6. Install bumper stop assembly.
ADJUSTMENTS
Warning: Use extreme caution; reel
under tension. Avoid releasing latch
mechanism. If necessary, adjust spring
tension on reel by adding or removing
wraps of hose from spool, one wrap at a
time, until desired tension is obtained. Add
wraps to increase tension. Remove wraps to
decrease tension.
Caution: When adding wraps of hose, add
just enough wraps to achieve the desired
tension without exceeding the winding mecha-
nism's spring capacity. Properly tensioned
reels allow all hose to be freely removed from
the spool until the point of U-bolt contact.
Damage to the winding mechanism will result
if spring is over-tensioned.
SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
User servicing of the reel is limited to
replacing input/output hoses only. Refer all
other repairs to an authorized service
person or directly to Reelcraft. Failure to
do so can result in personal injury and/or
equipment damage and may void the
warranty. Warning: Rewind hose on reel,
then bleed pressure from system before per-
forming the following procedures. Caution:
Remove all spring tension before disassem-
bling the hose reel. Do not attempt to open
the riveted spring case assembly.
1. Replace hoses in accordance with
procedures given in "Installation
Instructions" section of this manual.
2. All mating moving parts have been
factory lubricated as required.
