Post by: Luc on December 29, 2011, 05:09:53 pm

Hi guys.

I'm looking to get a solution hose live reel for my Tm that can be bolted near my machine so that when I open my side door I can just pull it straight out onto the job Does anyone know where I can one from? Thanks guys.

Luc,

You have to get rid of the hose that comes with it and take out the spring that makes it retract then they take around 125 feet of 1/4 inch hose.

If the spring is removed how do you wind the hose back in?? Or am I just being stupid! ???

The later ;D
The spring will only rewind so much hose, so with it removed you can have 125 feet on it which you then manually reel it up. Simples ;D

Lucy,
No, it will vibrate like hell. Better on the bulkhead if you've got one.

Lucy :D




I think the other reason not to bolt it through the roof is that you will have some fecking great big bolts through the roof of your van!!!

P.S. The only reason Simon's being remotely helpful is because he thinks he's chatting a girl up ;) ;)
