Adding a hose reel to trolley ?
« on: March 12, 2011, 09:02:13 pm »
I want to put a 30m hose and reel onto my omnipole trolley, and want to make use of the ez snap fiiting I have.

Does anyone know the fittings I need and the best way to do this ?

Thanks  ;D

I found the easiest and very cheap way to do this was large jubilee clips, get 4 off and just tighten it to the frame. I dont know if the frame on your would match up to a frame on hose reel mind, but heres what i did.

I dont use that one but thats the same thing, so normal hose goes into hozelock, click that inside, then to microbore, then i have EZ snap on end of microbore  ;)

SWC, do you leave the trolley in the van & just run the hose out? I ask as that's what I'm thinking of doing in the short term.

at mo if i can leave it in the van i do just run hose out pop the sign on the floor job done, i got a tank in mind also got 100m micro bore hose i will still need to use the trolley for good part of my work, so it will be a little combo system i think.
