PREPARING THE SITE FOR YOUR ROTARY CLOTHESLINE
Preparing the ground socket
1. Make sure the selected installation position has
sufficient clearance on all sides. Refer to table below.
Model
Clearance at all sides
M32/M38
2.1m
M42/M48
2.3m
M52/M58
2.5m
2. Excavate a hole 250mm (10 inches) in diameter
x 600mm (24 inches) deep.
3. Back fill the hole with screenings (small crushed rock)
to 450mm (18 inches) from ground level. This is
necessary to drain rain water that enters via the socket.
4. Position the ground socket inside the hole so that it
sits centrally and vertically. The bottom end of the ground
socket will rest on the screenings while the top of the ground
socket should reach the ground level. Adjust the depth of the
screenings as needed.
5. To retain the ground socket in the central position,
backfill with screenings to 425mm (16 inches) from
ground level. Ensure no rocks are inside the socket.
Positioning the main tube
assembly
6. Position 3 stakes spaced at an
equal distance around the hole
approximately 1 meter (3.3 ft)
out. Insert the stakes at an angle
approximatly 300mm (12 inches)
into the ground.
7. Insert the main tube assembly
into the ground socket making
sure the pin is positioned into
one of the slots. Secure by
engaging the locking ring.
