OPE R ATION

1. Slowly pull out the hose to the required

length. A ‘clicking’ noise will be heard every

revolution of the inner drum. To lock the reel,

allow the hose to retract slowly after hearing

the second or third ‘click’.

2. To release the hose, pull out the hose until

the ‘clicking’ noise stops, and then allow the

hose to slowly retract while guiding the hose

back into the hose reel. The self layering

mechanism will coil the hose back onto the

inner drum.

3. To avoid injury and damage, always hold

the hose while it is retracting.

IMPORTANT:

If the hose becomes tangled and will not

retract - slowly pull out the hose past the

tangled section and then allow the hose to

slowly retract while guiding the hose back

into the hose reel.

Always ensure the hose is clean and

not twisted.
