How to Use the Cam-Lever Brake 

Page 7

When you stop pulling out the hose, our innovative Cam-Lever Brake is designed to prevent the reel from free-

spinning and unspooling more hose than what you wanted. The brake can be turned ON and OFF with the simple

flick of a finger.  Turn the brake ON when pulling the hose out, then flip it to the OFF position for easy rewinding.

NOTE: See back page for instructions on how to adjust the amount of tension, or drag.
