CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Your hose reel is manufactured with the finest quality components available. This product will give you many seasons of reliable and functional hose storage. All components are manufactured to rigorous quality standards not common in other consumer grade hose reels available today. As with any steel product, there is always the chance for rust developing over time. Your hose reel finish is designed for industrial applications, but even the toughest of coatings can be compromised by scratches.

Such minor surface damage can occur in shipping despite our best efforts. We have found that most scratches occur during assembly and/or installation (in the case of wall mounted hose reels). If the base metal is exposed to the elements long enough, rust will develop. In the case of wall mounted reels, be sure to use stainless steel mounting hardware. We recommend that you periodically inspect your reel for any surfaces damage. Scratches can easily be repaired by using standard automotive touch-up body paint. Some of our most loyal customers recommend that at the end of each season, the unit be cleaned and painted with a clear acrylic paint.

When you install your hose reel, be sure the hose washers are in place and all fittings are secure. If you live in more temperate climates, be sure to drain the unit of any residual water before storing.

DO NOT EXPOSE UNIT TO FREEZING TEMPERATURES while water remains in the plumbing system, this can damage the swivel.
DO NOT leave water running through the hose reel cart while not in use or unsupervised.
DO NOT consume water from garden hose; not fit for human consumption.

WARNING! This product contains one or more chemicals known in the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects or reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

Troubleshooting

Problem: Swivel head is not rotating, causing the leader hose to kink up.
Solution: Remove leader hose and turn the square head of the swivel several times; apply lubricant.
Problem: Your new Liberty hose reel is leaking at the swivel.
Solution: Apply Teflon/Plumber's Tape on the threads or/and make sure fixtures are tightened. It is normal for the swivel to leak slightly until the O-rings are wet and have seated. If the leaking continues, try these steps: (It is not necessary to return the hose reel)

If the leader hose is attached to the swivel, unscrew the hose and look inside the swivel.
Check that the hose washer is inside the nut. You may contact Liberty Garden Products for a new hose washer or obtain one at any hardware store.
If your swivel is old, the O-rings may be worn, please contact us for a new set of O-rings.
If these steps do not solve your leaking problem, contact Liberty Garden Product’s customer service.
