Use

Warning!

• Always hold the hose firmly until it is fully retracted into the hose reel.
• The yellow tape marks the end of the hose length.
• Depressurize when not in use.
• Do not let go of the hose so that it retracts automatically.

1. Extract the hose to the desired length. The hose will latch automatically.
2. For unlatching and rolling up, shortly pull the hose. Guide the hose back to its reel. When pulling out the hose more than 10 cm, the hose locks in place again.
3. Always hold the hose while rolling it up to avoid injuries and damages.
4. In case the hose gets tangled up, preventing its rolling up, extract it again over the tangled point, then let it retract slowly while guiding the hose back to its reel. Always make sure that the hose is clean and does not get tangled.

Adjusting the stop all

The position of the stop ball can be adjusted so that the hose is always within reach. No tools are required to realize this adjustment.

Steps

1. Extract the hose to the desired length, making sure that the hose reel is locked (hose does not roll up again).
2. Open the lock of the stop ball and slide it to the desired position.
3. Re-lock the ball.
   Attention! Always make sure that the hose reel is locked before removing the stop ball; also make sure that the stop ball is securely fixed before un- locking the reel.
