INSTALLATION and MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
“K-28” DUAL HOSE REEL-DIRECT DRIVE
All units are provided with right hand rotation unless otherwise
specified. This means that hose is pulled off spool top left or bottom
right (spool rotates clockwise to wind hose) when viewing spring
end of reel. See diagram on parts page.
WARNING
Some reels with large or multiple springs are equipped
with a ratcheted adjustment wrench. Follow separate
instructions for its use. Failure to use ratcheted wrench, on
Clock-type springs provide power for automatic hose take-up.
Spring must be pretensioned at time of installation to insure
that tension is applied to hose at all times. A tension adjustment
spanner wrench is provided with each reel.
reels so equipped, could result in serious personal injury.
MAINTENANCE
Periodically:
A. Inspect hose for wear and check mounting bolts and other
hardware for tightness.
WARNING

If machine pull reel, move machinery to position
closest to reel before adjusting spring tension.
Adjusting tension with hose extended may result in
damage to reel or personal injury.
B. Check for broken springs

1. Install hoses if reel was purchased without hoses. See
instructions on page 4.
WARNING
2. Insure that machinery to be serviced by reel is at
position closest to reel.
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.
3. Securely mount reel in desired position using 1/2"(M12).
Be sure spool is aligned with hose run.
4. Connect free end of hoses to connections on machine.
SPRING REPLACEMENT
5. Connect flexible supply lines to swivel fitting. See HOSE
INSTALLATION REFERENCE DRAWING.
The unique SAFETYCHANGE® spring motor consists of a spring
and hub sealed within a housing. A replacement spring is supplied
sealed in its housing and the old unit should be
discarded completely.
NOTE: Do not hard plumb to swivel fitting.
6. Remove cover plate on spring housing to expose
shaft and spring hub. (See Figure 1).
1. Turn off supply pressure to reel.
7. Insert spanner wrench into holes in spring hub (Fig 2). Rotate
spanner wrench counter-clockwise. Number of 360° turns
should match last digit in model number on serial plate.
2. Insure that machinery to be serviced by reel is at
position closest to reel. Disconnect hose from
machine connections.

5. Rotate spool clockwise and observe inner shaft.
Shaft should rotate clockwise and hub (with
spring attached) should remain stationary.
NOTE: Do not attempt to remove spring if resistance is met
or hub tends to rotate with shaft. Continue to rotate spool and
strike end of shaft several sharp blows with a rubber mallet until
shaft rotates freely and hub remains stationary.

CAUTION
6. Remove (4) bolts which secure spring motor to frame.
7. Slide spring motor off shaft and discard.
Do not exceed number of turns indicated on serial
plate. Over-tensioning can cause a broken spring,
sheared shaft or other damage.
8. Install replacement spring motor, pawls and pawl springs.
NOTE: Pawl springs must be located between the pawls
and the deepest section of the shaft grooves.
Make sure that pawls and pawl springs are inserted flush
with ends of shaft and hub or they may rub against
inspection cover. See Fig 4, page 4.
WARNING
Do not attempt to relieve spring tension using spanner
wrench. Doing so may result in personal injury.
9. Tighten bolts securing spring housing to reel frame.

HOSE INSTALLATION
HOSE REMOVAL
Use the following procedure to remove worn or damaged hoses
from reel prior to installation of new hoses.
Use the following procedure to replace hoses or if reel was
ordered without hoses. Refer to HOSE INSTALLATION
REFERENCE DRAWING, below.
1. Move machine serviced by reel to a position closest to
reel. Spring will still be under pre-tension at this point.
1. Unspool new hose from shipping spool and lay out to
eliminate twist.
2. Turn off supply pressure to reel.
NOTE: This step is not essential, but will aid in winding
operation of the reel and prolong hose life.
3. Disconnect hoses from machine or other attachments.
Remove hose stops, if installed, and allow hoses to
retract onto spool. Ensure all tension is off spring by
manually rotating spool (normally clockwise when
viewed from spring side).
2. Connect hoses to elbows inside spool wrapper.
(See drawing below.)
3. 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)
4. Unwrap hoses without allowing spool to turn.
5. Disconnect hoses from elbows inside spool wrapper.
6. Install new hoses following directions below.
4. Complete working end connections.
5. Pretension reel and complete installation as
described in REEL INSTALLATION section.
