Cleaning

To clean the product, wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
Never use corrosive detergents, wire brushes, abrasive scourers, metal or sharp utensils to clean the product.

Maintenance

User servicing of the reel is limited to replacing input/output hoses and/ or their seals only. Refer all other repairs to a professional repair center.
Failure to do so can result in personal injury and/or product damage.
Check the components regularly to make sure all bolts are tightened.

Rust prevention

As with any steel product, there is always the chance for rust developing over time. Even the toughest of coatings can be compromised by scratches. Such minor surface damage can occur in shipping or during assembly and/or installation.
If the base metal is exposed to the elements long enough, rust might develop. It is recommend to periodically inspect the product for any surface damage. Scratches can easily be repaired by using standard touch-up body paint.

Fixing leaking swivel water inlet

It is normal for the swivel to leak slightly until the seal (located on the inside of the swivel) is wet and seated. If the leaking continues:

If the leader hose (G) is attached to the swivel (C), unscrew the hose and look inside the swivel.
Using either a hex key or a large screwdriver (not provided), insert the tool into the opening and gently tighten the threaded insert. Do not over-tighten.
Check the seal as it might be damaged. If damaged, replace the seal with the same type/size.
