a spool rotationally attached to the frame;
a driving member configured to rotate the spool;
a tongue pivotally attached to the frame;
a first actuator configured to pivot the tongue with respect to the frame;
a hose guide arranged in front of the spool, the hose guide being configured to control a loading of hose on the spool; and
a second actuator configured to move the hose guide, wherein the hose guide is pivotally connected to the frame and the second actuator is configured to pivot the hose guide.
2. The mobile hose reel system of claim 1 , wherein the hose guide is configured to move in a side-by-side manner to control a loading of hose on the spool.
3. The hose reel system of claim 1 , wherein the tongue has a coupling member configured to couple to a towing vehicle.
4. The hose reel system of claim 3 , wherein the hose guide is between the coupling member and the spool.
5. The hose reel system of claim 1 , wherein the driving member includes a motor.
6. The hose reel system of claim 5 , wherein the motor is a multispeed motor.
7. The hose reel system of claim 5 , wherein the motor is a hydraulic motor.
8. The mobile hose reel system of claim 1 , wherein the driving member includes a motor and a slewing ring coupled to the motor.
9. The mobile hose reel system of claim 8 , wherein the slewing ring is connected to a pinion of the motor.
10. A mobile hose reel system comprising:
a frame;
an axle rotationally attached to the frame;
a pair of wheels attached to the axle;
a spool rotationally attached to the frame;
a driving member configured to rotate the spool;
a tongue pivotally attached to the frame;
a first actuator configured to pivot the tongue with respect to the frame; and
a hose guide arranged in front of the spool, the hose guide being configured to control a loading of hose on the spool, wherein the driving member includes a multispeed motor and a slewing ring directly coupled to a pinion of the motor.
11. A mobile hose reel system comprising:
a frame;
an axle rotationally attached to the frame;
