Coverage 

Rapid-Reel

®

and Eley Corporation, (collectively here after referred to as the "warrantor"), guarantees this hose reel, components and parts, unless otherwise

specified, to be free from defect, malfunction or failure in material, or workmanship, under normal use and service, for a period of 10 years (120 months).
Warranty period starts from original invoice date.

Hose

Hose supplied by warrantor carries a warranty of 1 year (12 months) from original invoice date of purchase.  Hose is selected from reliable commercial sources
and is recommended for application on the basis of data supplied by the manufacturer.  

Exemptions

Warranty does not cover leaking due to damage caused by the use of acid, harsh chemicals or mineral deposits. Warranty does not apply when products are
used in excess of their rated capacities and design functions or under abnormal conditions. The effects of corrosion, and normal wear and tear are specifically
excluded from this warranty. This warranty does not cover damage which occurs in shipment or failures which are caused by products not supplied by the
warrantor or failures which result from accidents, mishandling, faulty installation, freezing, misuse or misapplication, abuse or neglect.  Warranty is void if the
product or any part thereof has been tampered with, altered or repaired by anyone other than warrantor or damage that is attributable to acts of God.  The
warrantor covers the replacement or credit of defective parts only and does not allow for field labor charges for removal, installation, analysis or travel expenses.
In no event shall the warrantor or its suppliers be liable for any damages, whatsoever, arising out of the use of or inability to use this product. (Some states do
not allow the exclusion of limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you). The warrantor and its
suppliers disclaim all other expressed or implied warranties. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation
may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

The amount of tension, or drag, of the
cam-lever brake can be adjusted with a
3/8” wrench.  Simply loosen the nut
(counter-clockwise) to decrease the
amount of drag.  Tighten the nut,
(clockwise) to increase the amount of
drag.  We strongly recommend that you
increase or decrease the tension by only
1/4 turn of the wrench before testing the
amount of drag. Keep adjusting at 1/4
turn intervals until desired level of tension
is acquired.
