Abstract
A hose reel, particularly suitable for use with a mobile sewer cleaner, includes a cylindrical drum rotatable on a generally horizontal axis. A plate is affixed to each end of the drum to form the hose reel which is divided generally centrally by a third plate thus defining two hose receiving areas. Two hoses, preferably of differing diameters, are coiled on the reel, one hose in each hose receiving area. Fluid under pressure is provided internally of the reel through a pipe on the axis of rotation of the drum and is selectively channeled to at least one of two hoses coiled on the drum. In this manner, a single hose reel can be operated with different volume outputs dependent on the particular job being accomplished.
