Converting a hose reel to a power reel..

[Able 1]

Anyone interested? I'll go through it again.. As long as there is interest. It's easy as hell!! It will cost around $400.. What says yous? I'm working on one now.. It really is old news.. Whatever!

Chain and sprocket.. No slippage..

Go for it Keith! Not only for the regular posters that might upgrade but for the lurkers that might benefit.

No, I actually like the size..

Slippage is no problem with the link belts we used.

You want to get the sprocket as centered as possible..

I use this for a template for a larger piece of metal I have cut, and weld it to the reel..

I use this motor..

You will have to get a solenoid and 25amp breaker..

Then make sure your sprockets are lined up.. Watch while you turn the reel to make sure the sprocket stay aligned all the way around. If they don't, add or take washers out between the sprocket and reel..

I'm going to see if they will Rhino line the base when I have my van done, I'll have the rest powder coated..

You are just a show off aren't you!

Show us some pics of when done.

Looks great!

If you use this switch I would recommend it be corded, so to stay away from the reel(no need to lose any teef)..
