That normally happens to me when I take stuff apart and put it back together again /emoticons/biggrin.png

I had same thing a couple of years back, thing was we bought 3 reels at once same style as yours there. first two went together sweet last one we had 1 nut, 1 bolt and 1 washer, spent 2 hours working out what we had missed.............nothing. It was simply a surplus bolt.

Lol dam it I've taken it all apart and still can't find out where it goes so you must be right it's a spare. I thought it went here as there's a hole lol

Yes but theory and logic dictate that you have to run the pump twice as hard to get same flow rates you currently get with one.

Honestly once you burn out the pump you will be ****** at yourself so I recommend spend the money on a second pump now so you have two pumps. Or wait burn out the pump, spend money on new pump anyway and only still have one pump and be bitter with yourself about it. Your choice.

Point taken I do have a trolley system too by j&s sprayers (hardly use) do you think that mounted would be up ti the job? Its only occasionally i need help

I put one of these together a couple of weeks ago and used the bolt in this hole to bolt the spindle to the reel, as you suggested.

I know the answer! You have screw missing @Neil :rofl:

 

[Smurf]

Why is it a man will never read instructions how to put things together?

My wife always says to me when I'm struggling why don't you just RTFM (readthefookingmanual) /emoticons/biggrin.png

 

[Neil]

I did read the manual lol but it doesn't tell you where to put the screws !! [emoji23]

glad the splitter worked neil, I was wondering if you had any success with it

 

[Neil]

The thing that people are saying is that it could burn the pump out quick I'm considering wether to just buy 2 of everything because I don't want to get stuck on a job if you get what I mean
