Care and Cleaning

□ When you are finished using your hose reel, turn off the water source. Do not leave the water pressure on when not in use.
□ Store the hose reel indoors during colder months. If it must be left in freezing conditions, disconnect the hose from water source and drain all
water out of hose and reel. Freezing of trapped water may cause damage to reel, hose or pipes.
□ once a year, remove the in-tube to clean and re-lube the o-rings.
□ check the in-tube and out-tube connections prior to first use each spring.
□ Depending on usage and water hardness, the in-tube and out-tube connection may become worn and start to leak. If this happens, check that the
washers located in the female coupling of the garden hose and at the in-tube connection to the leader hose are in place and not worn. Replace
the washers, if necessary. also, check that all connections are tight. If the hose reel still leaks, replacement of the in-tube and out-tube may be
necessary.

Reeling in the hose
CaUtion: before winding the hose, remove the nozzle or
other attachment and drain as much water out of the hose as
possible. this will prevent extra stress on the hose reel (from the
weight of the water) that could cause permanent damage.
note: prior to winding the hose walk the end back to the hose
reel so that the hose is in a "U" shape in front of the reel: this
assists in the rewinding process.
□ Flip the crank handle (E) grip down.
□ turn the crank handle (E) until the entire garden hose is reeled
in.
□ press the tab on the back of the crank handle (E) to fold the grip
back in place.
note: to unwind your garden hose, pull the hose out away
from the hose reel in a straight line.
