squirtgun 122 Report post Posted June 12, 2004 These some pics of the hose reel I mounted on our hand cart for our Xjet.The drum is 30 gallons but we never mix more that a 15 gallons at a time,because of the weight.50ft of 3/8" hose,the shut-off valve is set back about 10ft from the Xjet. The only draw back to running the chemicals through the elbow on the reel is it will rust,I'm working on a modification that will fix the problem,and will share it when I'm finished.

Howard 50 Report post Posted June 14, 2004 Scott I used that clear 3/8 hose and had to replace it. The hose kept being sucked flat so I just bought 30 ft of the fiberglass hose. I like your set up, mind if I copy it? Howard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squirtgun 122 Report post Posted June 14, 2004 I posted so other could use the idea.I iwsh i could take credit for it but many other have done this long before we did.The clear only runs from the elbow on the hose reel to the strainer.The rest is 3/8" braided line.
