My hosereel is fixed to the floor at the back of the van and my varistream is on the tank frame at the side load door no where near it,the pump and controller are attatched to the frame where they should be out of the way.I`ve stopped using the electric reel for the moment as it can play havvock with your wrist,you need something for the drill to butt up against to stop the strain on the wrist.I`m looking into it at the moment,it needs something that it can be permantley attatched to so that all you have to do is press the trigger so there`s no need to hold the drill.
