Safety-First Design
No overheating, no meltdowns, no kidding.
This reel was designed smart: you can’t use your cable while it’s still coiled. That’s not a bug—it’s a built-in safety feature to prevent overheating and comply with AS/NZS 3012 clause 2.6.8.
Want to break the rules? You can—but don’t say we didn’t warn you.
Multi-Reels are so intuitive that anyone who picks one up can use it without thinking.
- When you first load your hose or cable; line up the gaps and click it in.
- To release, just anchor one end of your hose/cord, hold onto the large handle, and walk away.
- If the plug or head of your lead feels a little snug going through the inner circle, just push it gently through to the back. It won’t affect the performance of your Multi-Reel.
- The stiffer the cable, the slower you should wind. Keep a steady pace—racing the wind can cause the layers to loosen and overlap, which makes it harder to pull out later.
- Don’t overload your Multi-Reel. If your hose or cable feels jammed, it may be a sign you need a larger size. It’s best to leave a small gap around the outer edge so nothing rubs against the shell while winding in or drawing out.
- Multi-Reels of the same size are designed to stack together front-to-front. Line up one winder handle into the petal opening of the other unit, and the opposite handle will click into place.
- Once aligned, you can strap the pair by threading a tie or strap through the core and around both reels. This gives your cables or hoses extra protection—basically armor-plated with the outer shells—while you’re on the move.
