Anyone using an electric hose reel would benefit by adding a by-pass valve that goes back the buffer tank,..this makes hose winding way faster and is better for the electric motor on the reel. The by-pass valve does two things:
(1) It allows for the reel to be used while the engine is running,. Delivering more amps to the electric motor on the reel. Speeds it up about double for me.
(2) Allows for an easy start when dealing with an unloader that wants to load up while starting a cold engine.
