Choosing the best location
Select the best location to mount your hose reel...
1. Near your worksite. Your hose reel comes with up to 30m (100ft) of hose. Think about
where you need to water and make sure the hose can reach.
2. Near a spigot. This hose reel is provided with a 2m (6.5ft) leader hose, so select a
location close to the spigot.
3. On a sturdy wall or structure. There are many options for mounting this hose reel into
various structures, but it's important that the structure be sturdy enough to support the
weight of the reel, up to 14.5kg (32lbs) with water.
4. In the shade. By mounting your hose reel in a shady area of your yard, you can reduce
the harmful effects of sunlight on the reel and hose and extend the life of your purchase.
Use this method for stone or brick walls...
