SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not allow tools to hang on the end of the hose when not in use. Do
not allow the hose to contact hot, sharp or heated surfaces that
could damage it. Always recoil hose back into the reel when work is
completed.
• Do not allow hose to retract uncontrolled.
INSTALLATION
MOUNTING OPTIONS
Mounting on wall:
Recommended height is 5 ft. (1.5 m) to 8 ft. (2.5 m)
Mounting overhead:
Recommended ceiling height is 8 ft. (2.5 m) to 10 ft. (3 m)
• Choose fasteners suitable for the mounting surface,
the weight of the reel, and the force of pulling the hose. Use a
leveling device for proper positioning.
• Use hex head fasteners up to 5/16" (8 mm) in diameter,
with a (minimum) ½" (12.5 mm) hex head.
Mounting fasteners not included.
Wall Installation:
1. Position template on desired surface and mark location for
fasteners in keyholes on template.
2. Install the fasteners and hang the reel bracket. Tighten the
fasteners to the bracket.
Ceiling / Overhead Installation:
Important: Use of the third mounting hole is required for overhead
installation to prevent reel from becoming unmounted while
pulling the hose.
1. On hose reel, locate the pivots at bracket ends.
2. Observe both sides of reel housing and remove bolts that hold
bracket pivots in reel. Retain nuts and bolts. Remove pivots from reel
and bracket.
3. Mount bracket to surface and install third fastener through bracket in
central hole. Mounting fasteners not included.
4. Re-install reel to bracket with the pivots. Replace bolts and nuts.
OPERATION
• Do not allow tools to hang on the end of the hose when not in
use. Keep hose away from hot surfaces and/or chemicals.
• Always recoil the hose back into the reel when work is
completed.
The Legacy L8250 retractable hose reel can lock the air hose at
approximately 18-inch intervals. Each latching interval is announced
by a series of five "clicks". This "ratcheting" sound lets you know that
the reel is in the latching zone as the air hose is pulled out.
1) Latching Hose -
After pulling out the desired length of hose, listen for the "ratcheting"
sound. (Do not pull more than four "clicks" in the desired latching
zone.) The reel is now latched.
2) Rewinding Hose -
Pull out hose until you do not hear a "ratcheting" sound. STOP!
Now, allow the hose to retract back into the reel. The reel will con-
tinue rewinding until hose is fully retracted. Do not allow the hose to
rewind uncontrolled back into the reel. Personal injury can result.
3) Hose Stopper Adjustment -
To modify the hose stopper position, pull out hose to the desired
length and latch reel. Loosen screws holding the two halves of the
hose stopper together, slide stopper to opening of reel and tighten
screws.
NOTE: ENSURE THE REEL IS COMPLETELY
LATCHED BEFORE LOOSENING THE HOSE STOPPER.
WARNING:
To avoid personal injury DO NOT attempt to disassemble
hose reel. No service parts are available. DO NOT attempt
to repair hose reel; replace if damaged or defective.
MAINTENANCE
• Do not allow tools to hang on the end of the hose when not in use.
Do not allow the hose to contact sharp or heated surfaces that could
damage it.
• In some situations the hose may become tacky, making retraction
difficult. This is NOT an indication of the reel being defective. In the
event hose retraction becomes difficult, please use the following
corrective measures:
CAUTION: When using silicone-based lubricant, keep away from
children. Keep away from eyes, nose, and mouth. Before using any
silicone-based lubricant product, follow instructions and cautions on
silicone product packaging. Dispose of any waste material according
to local regulations.
1. Spray silicone lubricant on a clean dry cloth. Wipe the entire length
of hose with the treated cloth. Periodically repeat cleaning the hose
in the same manner, as required, using only silicone lubricant.
2. As hose begins to retract, help guide the hose in manually, layering it
by gently moving it back and forth as it runs through your hands.
3. Cycle hose by pulling it out and letting it retract 4-5 times.
4. Over-use of silicone lubricant may make hose difficult to handle. If
hose surface becomes too slippery, wipe excess silicone with clean
dry cloth.
IMPORTANT: Solvents & petroleum distillates may damage hose
and are not recommended for cleaning hose. Use only silicone-based
lubricants, and in moderation.
INSTRUCCIONES DE SEGURIDAD
• Retroceda siempre Ia manguera hacia el carrete una vez terminadas
sus labores.
• No permita que Ia manguera se retraiga de manera incontrolada.
INSTALACIÓN
OPCIONES PARA SU INSTALACIÓN
lnstalación en un muro:
La altura recomendable es de 5 pies (1 .5 m) a 8 pies (2.5 m)
