EcoReel™ XL Wind-up System
Product Details
New! A low-cost reel for winding, unwinding and storing electric fence conductors. Extra spool width (vs. our standard EcoReel™) adds capacity for long fence lines.
- Complete system includes metal support frame with neck strap and spool with wind-up knob
- Saves time! Much faster than using the hand/elbow method of winding
- Spring-loaded cam latch locks the reel into place to maintain tension
- Keep valuable conductors tidy and untangled
EcoWinder (sold separately) is compatible with all power drills to speed wind-up.

Benefits
- Easier to use than New Zealand-style reels because the reel itself is supported by a strap around the neck instead of a hand. This allows you to wind the reel with one hand while using the other hand to remove and install posts.
- Requires fewer rotations to wind up 1,000 ft than other reels because the spool has a large inner circumference. A spring-loaded cam latch locks the reel in place when not in use.
- Extends life by allowing fence conductors to be stored inside when not in use.
- Hang the EcoReel™ XL in the field by using wood or steel T-post brackets (sold separately).

How to Use
- Use the neck strap to help support the weight of the reel.
- Insert rope or twine through the hole in the side of the reel. Tie off with a knot to prevent it from pulling through. If using a thick (6mm+) or tape conductor, use a piece of packing tape to hold the conductor to the spool.
- Slowly wind the reel by hand or with the EcoWinder to prevent the conductor from slipping.
- After several passes increase winding speed until the desired amount of conductor is on the reel.
- Insert the EcoWinder into the side of the reel with the knob
- Set the power tool to the desired direction for winding
- Activate the drill and wind until done

Received the spooling tool in a timely manner. I am pleased with the product but will not be able to use it until Spring. It promises to make installation of my electric fence much easier.
John C from South Carolina
I put up 3 strands of poly fence around our duck impound that totals over 4,200 feet. I have been looking for a spool system that I can wind up the fencing material up with a handle winding system. I ordered two of the spools and found the neck strap to be a major positive plus the large size spool allows me to wind up two fences at one time with adequate room on the spool. I locked the spool in place and stored it for next planting season. Be careful not to spool too fast as the fencing material will fall off the spool and wrap around the handle, no major problems. This product was a major help in winding up over 4,000 feet of fencing in a short time.

Reel supports for these reels are not the same size as the old EZE XL supports. They are definitely not a direct replacement. The footprint of the supports is larger on the ECO Reel XL as well as the reels. The supports required welding modification to fit into our rope unspooler mount brackets.
Joshua A from Montana
Excellent product and works great! This reel made setting up our mobile fence lines a breeze. The only hiccup I had was not realizing that when I put our line through the starter hole if I allowed it to touch the metal portion, I ended up grounding out my fence. This was easily fixed by adjusting the location of the knot. Other than that, I really like them.
Raye D from Virginia
I love these reels. I can unhook all the wire, set the reel on the tailgate of my gator and reel it in. No walking while winding. Works great!
