4. HOW TO LATCH AND RETRACT HOSE
CORRECTLY
This reel is fitted with ratchet wheel and detent design, which is
easy to extend and retract the hose. When pulling out the hose, you
can hear repeated “KADA” voice. When you pull out the hose
length needed and hear “KADA” voice, you can latch it (Fig. 6,
picture when the ratchet is in use, V is the pulling direction of
hose). When you retract the hose, ull out about 265 mm and when
no “KADA” voice, you can retract the hose now. To retract, it is
suggested that a minimum of 25% of the hose has been extended.
During retraction, always hold the hose and follow the retraction
until it is finished. To prevent hurting person accidentally or fray-
ing the hose result from quick speed. If needed, extend the hose to
full length then allow retracting, so to smooth the hose, let it even-
ly retract back to the reel.
5. MAINTENANCE
1. Do not immerse the reel in water to clean. If hose is very dirty,
please clean it before retraction.
2. The way is to mount the reel in a sheltered position to prolong
its life. The metal parts will deteriorate and rust in exposed
positions. Also the polypropylene parts will be affected when
exposed outside, particularly under sunlight, which will affect
the life of the reel housing and retracting wheel.
3. When not in use, it is advisable to store your reel.
4. If the hose cannot be retracted after using for a certain time,
maybe it is the spring that is fatigued. So the stress of spring
should be adjusted by 1-2 turns: firstly, discharge the left cover
from reel, clamp the head of spring, make it away from reel; the
swivel anti-clockwise the unit for 1-2 turns, restore the spring
head to the reel; lastly, replace the left cover.
