Proven itself in commercial use

For me this drum with automatic reel in a washing box for the care of the company limousine in use - we use the hose to "showered" the cars with Glanztrockner after hand washing. The tube is therefore up every day over and over again and rolled back. After a few months use rain I can give the following conclusion:

The drum is waterproof - nowhere dripping what rum - like Gardena has solved with the allegedly built slipping clutch, is a mystery to me. It definitely works!

Very pleasant is the built Aufrollbremse - as "rattles the tube is not uncontrollably in the Box", but runs nice and quiet and with a regular speed in his "garage" back. :-)

One point I would like to address some critical: If you purely look forward into the Aufrollschlitz, you see the roller that ensures a decent rolling up the hose inside the drum. I do not know whether this roll was greased when delivered - in any case they saw us the other day rather "dry" out, so I was worried about a "work-up" of the fine, the tube leading groove in the roller.

I have therefore today the roll carefully and cautiously with the waterproof special lubricant "Schmierfix" Liqui Moly
(Redirect = true & ref_ = oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s03) greased so that it also keeps all very long. Whether this is really necessary or not I can not say - damage in any case it is unlikely. ;-)
