- Drill pilot holes if necessary and securely fasten the hose reel using appropriate hardware (not always included).
- Ensure the reel is level and stable after mounting.
4.2 Conectarea furtunului

5. Instrucțiuni de utilizare
5.1 Extending the Hose
- Pull the hose steadily from the reel to the desired length. The reel's latching mechanism will engage at intervals, holding the hose in place.
- To extend further, pull the hose slightly past the last latching point until the mechanism clicks, then release.
5.2 Retracting the Hose
- To retract the hose, pull it gently but firmly until the latching mechanism disengages (you will hear a click).
- Guide the hose back onto the reel as it retracts to ensure even layering and prevent tangles. Do not release the hose abruptly, as it can whip and cause injury or damage.
6. Întreținere

- Check all fittings and connections for leaks. Tighten or replace as necessary.
- Inspect the reel's mounting hardware for tightness and corrosion.
- Verify the guide arm moves freely and is not obstructed.
6.2 Curățare
Clean the exterior of the hose reel with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the finish or hose material. Keep the hose clean and free of debris to ensure smooth retraction and prevent damage.
