4. Maintenance
Proper maintenance will extend the lifespan and ensure optimal performance of your RESTMO hose nozzle.
- Winter Storage: During freezing temperatures, always store the hose nozzle in a warm, dry place indoors. Leaving it exposed to freezing conditions can cause internal components to crack or break, leading to leaks and malfunction.
- Clean Regularly: Periodically clean the nozzle head to remove any mineral deposits or debris that may accumulate and affect spray patterns. Use a soft brush and mild soap if necessary.
- Check Gaskets: Inspect the rubber seal gasket at the hose connection point regularly for wear or damage. Replace if necessary to maintain a leak-free seal. Replacement gaskets are typically included or can be purchased separately.
- Avoid Dropping: While designed to be heavy-duty, repeated drops on hard surfaces can eventually lead to damage or leaks. Handle with care.
5. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your RESTMO hose nozzle, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Water leaking from hose connection | Loose connection, damaged or missing rubber gasket. | Ensure the nozzle is tightly screwed onto the hose. Check if the rubber gasket is properly seated and undamaged. Replace the gasket if worn. |
| Water leaking from nozzle body | Internal seal damage, exposure to freezing temperatures. | If the leak is from the body, especially after cold weather, internal components may be damaged. Contact customer support for assistance. |
| Inconsistent or weak spray patterns | Debris in nozzle head, low water pressure. | Clean the nozzle head to remove any blockages. Ensure your water source has adequate pressure. |
| Thumb flow control is stiff or difficult to move | Mineral buildup, lack of lubrication. | Rinse the control mechanism with water. If persistent, a small amount of silicone lubricant might help, but avoid petroleum-based products. |
