General Pump 4000 PSI Pigtail High Pressure Hose 3' x 3/8"

Ron,

I'm sorry you're having difficulty setting up your hose reel. The response we have on file to your question about the reel you bought was "I checked our files- you got the Sewer Genie and the hose reel from us (Pressure Washers Direct). The description of the hose reel says it comes with 3/8" NPT (threaded) male inlet and 3/8" NPT (threaded) female outlet. The Sewer Genie spray gun has a male quick connect plug so at least one end of your hose is a female quick connect. I don't know what's at the other end of your hose since we don't sell ElToro pressure washers, but if you check out our list of 3/8-Inch Adapters you should be able to find something that will mate the end of your hose and have a 3/8" male NPT (threaded) connection to mate with the outlet connector on the reel."

You are trying to cobble together a system to meet your needs, I get that. Our response included qualified statements like "description says" and "... don't know what's at the other end of your hose since we don't sell ElToro pressure washers" because we don't have all the pieces here to test-fit them in person. Your safety is paramount, and we didn't tell you which pieces to buy because we had no way of knowing which ones would be correct.

You may want to call the folks at MTM Hydro at 866-686-4020 and ask them to explain how their hose reel works. I sympathize with you if you ordered the wrong adapters, but it is up to you to look at your pressure washer and the accessories in front of you and choose which adapters will work best for the purpose you have in mind.
