Scope of delivery

- User's manual
- Fixing material (screws, washers, anchors)
- Hose reel
Choosing the best installation site
Consider the following when selecting a location:
- Proximity to water source (20m outlet hose reach).
- Proximity to water supply (2m inlet hose reach).
- Protection from direct sunlight.
- Surface strength: The wall must be strong enough to support the load.
Fixing the reel
Fixing the reel directly to wood
- Mark the bolt location using a bolt finder.
- Fix the drilling template at the appropriate height.
- Check vertical alignment with a level.
- Drill four holes using a 3-mm drill.
- Fix the holder to the wall using screws and washers.
- Attach the hose reel and secure it with the fixing bolt.
- Connect the inlet hose to the water supply.
Fixing the reel to a cavity wall or brickwork structure

- Fix the drilling template at the appropriate height.
- Check vertical alignment with a level.
- Drill four holes using a 10-mm drill.
- Insert plastic dowels (B3) into the holes.
- Fasten the bracket to the wall using screws and washers.
- Attach the hose reel and secure it with the fixing bolt.
- Connect the inlet hose to the water supply.
Usage
Retracting the hose: Always hold the hose firmly until it is fully retracted. Do not let go of the hose to allow it to retract automatically. If the hose gets tangled, extract it past the tangled point and let it retract slowly.
Adjusting the stop ball: The stop ball position can be adjusted to keep the hose within reach. Extract the hose to the desired length, open the lock of the stop ball, slide it to the new position, and re-lock it.
Maintenance
- Check the hose and housing regularly for cracks or bubbles.
- Clean the hose with a damp cloth if dirty.
- Do not twist the hose during use.
- Keep the hose reel in a protected area.
- Always reel the hose up when not in use.
Practical help
Common problems
Extract the hose past the tangled point, then let it retract slowly while guiding it back to the reel.
Ensure the mounting surface is strong enough to support the load and that the installation is carried out correctly.
Before use
- Read the entire user's manual.
- Check that the wall is free of live cables or pipes before drilling.
- Ensure the mounting surface can support the weight of the reel.
- Wear eye protection when using power tools.
- Verify water pressure is 8 bar or less.
Specs in practice
- Max. operation pressure
- 8 bar; do not exceed this pressure.
- Outlet hose length
- 20 meters; determines the reach of the hose.
- Inlet hose length
- 2 meters; distance to the water supply.
Images and diagrams
- The parts diagram shows the hose reel, bracket, and fixing materials (screws, washers, anchors).
- The installation diagrams illustrate the drilling and mounting process for both wood and brick surfaces.
Model compatibility
- Compatible with water sources up to 8 bar pressure.
- Requires specific drill bits (3mm for wood, 10mm for brick/cavity walls).
