At 100 m you are near the practical limit of spring rewind. Expect the last 10 m to come back slowly and do not fight it - let the spring do the work. If you regularly need this reach, a crank reel with a bigger drum is often the easier tool.
The rule that matters most: the hose must be fully retracted when the reel is under pressure. Run water through a part-wound drum and the coiled layers heat against each other with no cooling, and you will cook the cover from the inside. Never let go of the hose on the rewind either - 20 metres of hose with a coupling on the end coming back under spring tension will crack a guide arm or take out a shin, which is exactly what the safety brake models exist for.
On any site where the public or untrained staff can reach the reel, treat the brake as compulsory, not an upgrade. The ratchet catches every third or fourth turn rather than every turn, so if you want it to stop at a set length, pull past and let it click back. And do not open the spring housing.
It is a wound cartridge under serious tension - if the reel stops rewinding, fit a new cartridge. Mount it square, too; a reel installed out of plumb feeds hose onto one side of the drum and chews the rollers inside a month.
