-  * When the water valve opens the **[[:high-pressure_cleaner|high-pressure cleaner]]** starts and the hose is pressurized. The hose diameter increases and the total length of the hose shortens when the hose is pressurized. If there is multiple water on/off while the robot is standing still the length of the hose will go back and forth. This could make the reel rotate and hose been pulled out, which leads to " the hose grows on reel". \\  \\ The hose does normally only move when the robot moves forward or backwards.

 If the hose spreader lay too much hose on one side it will be a "thick" layer of hose. This could make the hose grow and slip over the edge of the reel. It could also make the hose eventually to drop down to a lower point on the reel, also leading to loose hose on the reel. If the hose spreader lay too much hose on one side it will be a "thick" layer of hose.

 If the reeled out hose is not fixated in the far end, for example if a hose extension is used, vibrations from the pressure cleaner can cause the hose to reel in slowly. If the reeled out hose is not fixated in the far end, for example if a hose extension is used, vibrations from the pressure cleaner can cause the hose to reel in slowly.
