Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Select a suitable mounting location on a wall or ceiling, ensuring it can support the reel's weight.
- Attach the 180-degree swivel mounting bracket to the chosen surface using the provided hardware.
- Mount the hose reel onto the bracket, securing it firmly.
- Connect your air source to the inlet fitting of the hose reel.
Compatibility:
This reel is designed for standard workshop air compressors and pneumatic tools that utilize common air line fittings. Ensure your air compressor output matches the reel's inlet size.
Care:
- Periodically inspect the hose for any signs of wear or damage.
- Clean the exterior casing with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Ensure the hose retracts smoothly; if resistance is felt, check for obstructions or kinks within the reel mechanism. Lubrication of the retraction spring is generally not required but consult the manufacturer if issues persist.
