Abstract: A hose reel apparatus for garden and other type hoses which rewinds the hose after it has been pulled from the reel and automatically shuts off the flow of fluid through the hose and drains the fluid from the hose after it has been rewound. The apparatus includes a fluid motor powered by the fluid which is also directed through the hose, and fluid valving utilizing fluid pressure for stopping fluid flow through the hose. The valving is responsive to an increase in fluid pressure resulting from restriction in the rotation of the hose reel after the hose has been rewound.
