I don't own one but i can imagine it's a case of stripping it down and changing around the manifold to change around the inlet sides if at all possibleOur new reels arrived today, delivered to totally the wrong address but fortunately my Son managed to retrieve them. Unfortunately, fussy little git that he is, he wants the water feed on the other side, anybody know how to do this?
I'm coming to that conclusion, cheers!I have a feeling you can rotate the unit, swap the front & rear plate and connect battery wires other way round - NOTE you then need additional fuse in black wire as it would be connected to +ve battery! BEFORE you do this check with supplier as they could have added a controller that would go bang if battery connections reversed.
You can order them paired don’t know if it can be altered after , give Jordan or Emma a ring and ask they are very helpful.Our new reels arrived today, delivered to totally the wrong address but fortunately my Son managed to retrieve them.

His was slightly older version though. They’ve changed controllers & upped the motor & fuse since then. Don’t know if that will make a difference.AE mackintosh, had this on one of his recent videos, swapping terminals, as uses reel on other side. Don't know which video exactly tho.

I think all YouTube experts need to be taken with a measure of caution.That guy is a total plonker , hasn’t got a clue the hose should go on the top of the reel not the bottom , also he was putting a twist on the hose whilst winding it on this will cause no end of issues I personally wouldn’t give him any credit for this video at all he hasn’t got a clue .
If you are going to put something like this in the Internet you should at least get it right , he has made himself look a total fool and anyone with an ounce of sense would not listen to anything he says in future .I think all YouTube experts need to be taken with a measure of caution.
He also didn't put a fuse in the +ve wire to the battery as the factory fitted fuse was moved to -ve terminal to reverse direction!!!!!That guy is a total plonker , hasn’t got a clue the hose should go on the top of the reel not the bottom , also he was putting a twist on the hose whilst winding it on this will cause no end of issues I personally wouldn’t give him any credit for this video at all he hasn’t got a clue .
Videos like this are dangerous for newbies as they will think what he’s doing is right !!!!!! And copy him . ???He also didn't put a fuse in the +ve wire to the battery as the factory fitted fuse was moved to -ve terminal to reverse direction!!!!!
I agree but where do us noobs find decent info?Videos like this are dangerous for newbies as they will think what he’s doing is right !!!!!! And copy him . ???
If you watched the rest of the video you would see that he swaps the terminals on the motor so it runs in the opposite direction to feed the hose on top of the reel as it’s supposed to.

I believe that is what the manufacturer told him to do!!! They failed to mention that he needed a fuse in battery +ve connection thought!!!!!!!!!!!!!!If you watched the rest of the video you would see that he swaps the terminals on the motor so it runs in the opposite direction to feed the hose on top of the reel as it’s supposed to.

It really doesn't matter if you fuse the positive or negative. They will both blow a fuse upon excessive current draw. I also fuse both conductors when installing VSR'sI believe that is what the manufacturer told him to do!!! They failed to mention that he needed a fuse in battery +ve connection thought!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We always fuse the wire coming from the positive terminal. If he swaps the wires around so the positive feed now becomes a black wire, it still needs to be fused.It really doesn't matter if you fuse the positive or negative. They will both blow a fuse upon excessive current draw. I also fuse both conductors when installing VSR's
Apart from if the -ve wire shorts to chassis then there is no protection for the +ve wire! As you say safest for fuses in both cables.It really doesn't matter if you fuse the positive or negative. They will both blow a fuse upon excessive current draw. I also fuse both conductors when installing VSR's
If he is so smart he would have done that before putting 100 meters of hose on the reel the wrong way roundIf you watched the rest of the video you would see that he swaps the terminals on the motor so it runs in the opposite direction to feed the hose on top of the reel as it’s supposed to.
