If you own a pressure washer, you’ll understand the importance of efficient and safe operation. An essential component in achieving this is the pressure washer hose reel. Hose reels provide a convenient solution to efficiently store and manage hoses, keeping them neatly coiled and preventing tangles and premature wear. Proper installation of the hose reel not only extends the life of your hose but also enhances the overall safety and functionality of your pressure washing setup.
Installing a pressure washer hose reel correctly guarantees easier handling and increases the efficiency of your cleaning tasks. In this blog, BISON will walk you through a detailed, step-by-step guide on how to properly install a pressure washer hose reel, ensuring a smooth setup process that improves convenience, organization, and safety.
Preparing for installation of a pressure washer hose reel
Before you begin the process of installing your pressure washer hose reel, it’s important to prepare yourself to ensure a smooth and safe installation. Here’s what you need to do:
1. Gather your tools and supplies
Before connecting your pressure washer hose to the reel, ensure you have all the necessary tools and equipment. Here’s a basic list of what you might need:
- Pressure washer hose reel
- Hochdruckreiniger-Schlauch
- Drill with appropriate drill bits
- Mounting hardware (bolts, screws, wall plugs)
- Wrenches and screwdrivers
- Measuring tape
- Level
- Marker or pencil for marking drill holes
2. Choose the right location for your reel
Choosing the right place to mount your hose reel is crucial for convenience and functionality. Find a location that is close to a water source and the location where you will be using the pressure washer. Make sure the location has enough space for the reel to spin freely without obstruction. The wall or surface where you plan to mount the reel needs to be strong enough to bear the weight of the reel and a fully loaded hose.
3. Safety precautions
Safety should never be overlooked when installing any equipment. In addition to wearing basic safety equipment such as safety glasses and gloves, you should also check whether the drilling position is firm. If you are drilling holes in the wall, you need to check whether there are hidden wires or pipes in the wall to avoid damage. If you are using a ladder, make sure the ladder is stable and in the correct position.
How to install a hose reel step-by-step
#Step 1: Unpack and inspect components
Open the packaging of your hose reel and lay out all parts and accessories. Check against the enclosed inventory list to ensure that nothing is missing or damaged. It’s important to start with all the necessary components in good condition to avoid any problems during installation.
# Step 2: Install the reel
Most reels on the market come with mounting brackets or hardware for easy installation. You just need to securely attach the reel to the pressure washer or other suitable surface (like a cart, wall, etc.) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Make sure it is securely fastened to prevent accidents while operating the pressure washer.
If the hose reel requires its own mounting bracket, place the bracket against the intended location and use a marker to mark the drilling points for the bracket (if holes need to be drilled on the surface). After drilling holes at the marked points, align the bracket with the holes and secure them securely with screws. Finally, lift the hose reel and align it with the bracket according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Use the provided bolts or screws to secure the reel to the bracket to complete the reel installation steps.
# Step 3: Connect the pressure washer hoses
To connect your pressure washer hose to the reel, you’ll need to attach a garden hose adapter to the end of the hose. Apply Teflon tape to the threaded end of the adapter to ensure a tight seal. Wrap the tape clockwise around the threads to ensure it covers the entire surface.
After that, locate the inlet on the side or bottom of the reel and insert the adapter into the fitting. Tighten the hose clockwise. Use a wrench to make sure the connection is tight, but be careful not to over-tighten and break the threads. Use thread tape if the manufacturer recommends it to prevent leaks.
Testing the installation of your pressure washer hose reel
1. Check for leaks
Begin by turning on the water supply to the pressure washer. Allow the system to pressurize and ensure that the inlet valve is fully open. Carefully observe all hose connections for any signs of water leakage. If you detect any leaks, turn off the water supply and relieve pressure in the hose. Tighten any loose connections or reapply thread tape and securely reconnect. You need to be aware that even a minor leak can cause a loss of pressure and potentially damage the equipment.
2. Functional testing of the hose reel
Once you are sure your hose is securely attached to the reel, it is time to roll it up for easy storage and access. Once you have rolled the hose onto the reel by turning the reel handle or using the crank (if applicable), slowly pull the hose out to its full length. Test that the hose extends smoothly, without jiggling or resistance. And when the hose reel is returned to its holder. It should retract evenly without forming kinks or loops on the spool. This ensures that the guide is working effectively.
Also, for hose reels with a locking mechanism, check the reel’s locking mechanism by stopping at various lengths to see if it is securely fastened.
Wartung und Pflege der Schlauchhaspel Ihres Hochdruckreinigers
1. die Lagerung des Schlauchaufrollers: Ein trockener, kühler Ort wie eine Garage oder ein Schuppen ist ideal, um Rost und Korrosion zu vermeiden.
2.Daily cleaning and lubrication: After each use, rinse off any dirt, debris, or chemical residues from the hose and reel, for tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution. Periodically apply a few drops of a suitable lubricant to the hose reel’s moving parts to keep the reel running smoothly.
3.Regular inspection and wear and tear: Regularly inspect the hose for any visible signs of wear and tear, such as cracks, leaks, or abrasions. Replace worn parts and lubricate moving components as specified by the manufacturer’s recommendations.
4.Winter maintenance: If you’re in a region that experiences freezing temperatures, take steps to winterize your hose reel. This includes draining the hose and storing it indoors or covering the hose reel with a protective cover to protect the hose reel from snow, ice, and moisture.

FAQs zu Installation einer Schlauchhaspel für Hochdruckreiniger
Vorbeugung: Achten Sie immer darauf, dass der Schlauch sauber aufgerollt ist und sich beim Aufrollen nicht überlappt oder verdreht. Verwenden Sie den Führungsarm (falls vorhanden), um eine gleichmäßige Aufwicklung zu gewährleisten. Passen Sie, falls vorhanden, die Spannungseinstellungen an der Trommel an, um zu verhindern, dass der Schlauch zu schnell herausgezogen oder eingezogen wird, was zu Knicken führen kann.
Lösung: Ziehen Sie den Schlauch vollständig aus und legen Sie ihn flach, um ihn manuell zu glätten, und ziehen Sie ihn dann vorsichtig auf die Trommel zurück.
Die meisten Aufroller für Hochdruckreiniger sind mit Standardschläuchen und -anschlüssen für Hochdruckreiniger kompatibel. Es ist jedoch wichtig, dass Sie sich vor dem Kauf eines Aufrollers vergewissern, dass er mit Ihrem speziellen Hochdruckreinigermodell und Ihrer Schlauchgröße kompatibel ist. Prüfen Sie die Spezifikationen und Empfehlungen des Herstellers, um die Kompatibilität sicherzustellen.
