CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Corrosion

Your hose reel will give you many years of reliable and functional hose storage. However, with any aluminum product there is a chance for corrosion to develop over time. Minor surface damage may occur during shipping, assembly, or during installation. If aluminum is exposed to the elements for an extended period of time, corrosion could develop.

It is highly recommended that you periodically inspect your hose reel for minor scratches that can
easily be repaired by using automotive touch-up paint.

Inspecting the hose reel after each season and protecting the finish will help prevent corrosion and prolong the life of the product.

Leaks
Your hose reel is manufactured with the finest quality components available. All components are manufactured to rigorous quality standards not common in other consumer grade hose reels available today. When you install your hose reel, be sure the hose washers are in place and all fittings are secure. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN as you might damage the components. If you live in more temperate climates, be sure to drain the unit of any residual water before storing. DO NOT EXPOSE THE UNIT TO FREEZING TEMPERATURES while water remains in the plumbing system.

• Ensure the hose washers are in place.

• Ensure all fittings are secure and tight.

• Check the hose connections for damage if the unit was exposed to freezing temperatures.

• The leader hose and garden hose uses rubber O-Rings which over time can wear out.
  Replacement O-Rings can be found at www.libertygardenproducts.com

• DO NOT leave water running through the reel while not in use or unsupervised.

• Turn off water after each use.
