Great job Sir. Wish I would of watched your video before I installed mine. Turned out ok but the paper track was a great idea. I killed my back trying to hold up the unit to mark the holes. Definitely could of used another hand. And your display of the ratcheting sounds and tightening the tension was great. Manual was very confusing. Thanks.

I have to tell you. Coming into this, I didn't know a whole lot about air hose reels and air hose reel mounting systems. I've been procrastinating adding an air compressor system to my diy arsenal. Relevant content such as yours helps with beginning the process. I love Fiddle Faddle, but I haven't had it in a while. I did enjoy some Crunch and Munch from the Dollar Tree a few weeks ago. I see you are in the Make Headbands Great Again Club. I'm a charter member. Great video! And don't forget to spray and neuter your pets.

Great video, thanks..You answered my question as to how the hell I was going to install the top two lag screws into my mounting area. Should be fun using an open ended wrench up at 8 feet on a ladder! How has it held up for you otherwise? I was thinking about taking the existing hose out and replacing it with Flexzilla not sure how it will install until I take a better look at this thing. Thanks!
@kove3 жыл бұрын
Glad it helped! I LOVE this thing. Oh-my, that would be the pits! once you get one slightly screwed in to take the weight off, makes it much better. My one gripe- where the feeder air hose attached to the reel on the side, the elbow sometimes leaks and I have to wiggle it to seat/seal better. I'd imagine a new O-ring may fix that.

@kove3 жыл бұрын
Does it have any tension on it? If so, you may need to add more by carefully removing the black stopper, and adding a few "winds" if tension to it, put the stopper back on and test again. If there is no tension whatsoever, it sounds like something failed internally and you may need to contact Harbor Freight, and/or the manufacturer.
