Maintenance; Replacement Of The Hose - Faicom MNR Notice D'utilisation Et D'entretien

IMPORTANT! Maintenance should only be carried out by suitably trained staff,
who are familiar with the instructions and information in this manual.
Periodically check the reel for the leaks and smooth operation. Check that there is no fluid leakage from
the fittings and that the swivel joint and fittings are tight.
Periodically lubricate the hose for easy rewinding.
If necessary, lubricate the joint.
Make sure that there is no tension in the spring before starting any operations inside the hose reel.
Always close the feeding of fluid to the machine before performing any maintenance or servicing.
Replace the flexible hose if it shows any signs of wear or damage.
Replace the seal inside the revolving joint if it is worn or damaged.
The replacement of the spring must only be carried out by trained staff, according to the instructions
supplied by the manufacture.
Any replacement of hose reel parts has to be done using original spare parts.
We advise you to contact the manufacturer for any possible anomaly and before replacing any part.
WARNING: BEFORE PERFORMING ANY OPERATION, POSITION THE STOPPER AT THE END OF THE
HOSE, REEL THE HOSE COMPLETELY AND MAKE SURE THAT THE SPRING IS COMPLETELY SLA-
CKENED.
For safety reasons, operations of hose replacement must be carried out at the bench.
Use a hose with dimension and pressure characteristics suited to the use (see table of characteristics).
1) Loosen the swivel joint working on the nut, by 28 wrench (picture A).
2) Insert a 5 mm hexagonal wrench into the axle of the spring linkage shaft. Unfasten the nut with a 19 mm
wrench, holding in place with the hexagonal wrench (figure B). Release the spring by turning the hexagonal
wrench slowly clockwise.
3) Remove the nut and the 4 attachment screws from the two half-casings.
4) Remove the half-casing and take out the drum (figure C).
WARNING: DO NOT OPEN THE SPRING CASING. SPRING REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OPERATIONS
MUST ONLY BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS.
5) Unscrew the internal fitting with the suitable wrench and mount the new hose.
6) Wind the new hose onto the drum, insert it through the roller support and mount the hose rubber stop about
50 cm. from the end.
7) Grease if required. Reassemble the hose reel, by following the above steps in reverse order.
8) Insert the hex wrench into the axle after the side bodies have been attached. Turn the wrench
anti-clockwise and bring the hose rubber stop into contact with the roller support. Pre-load the spring while
continuing to turn anti-clockwise the wrench (see table of technical data).
Hold the hex wrench firm and fasten the nut (picture B). Mount the swivel joint after lubricating it.
9)
Check to make sure that the reel works correctly. If the hose does not rewind or does not withdraw
completely, adjust the spring tension as in step 8.
10) When complete, place the hose rubber stop at the desired distance from the end of the hose.
