TO CONCRETE THE GROUND SOCKET
(a)
Mix quick setting cement according to manufacturer’s instructions or alternatively mix concrete in the following
proportions: 3 gravel:1 sand:1 cement with water. Concrete should be damp enough to hold together when squeezed
in the hand.
(b)
Stand the Ground Socket in the centre of the hole and open the Head Section. Check to ensure correct height setting
for user and of the Ground Socket to finished surface level. Adjust if necessary. Fold the arms down and fit the Line
Retainer for final installation. Ensure the handle is facing the correct way (i.e. towards the path).
(c)
Hold the Rotary upright and fill with another 50mm gravel only. Add concrete mix to approximately half depth.
Check to ensure the Mail Column is level, tamp the concrete down using a rod to settle the concrete. Re-check the
Main Column level and then fill the hole to within 20mm from the top. Settle the concrete again and re-check the
level. Finish with a mix of sand and cement (2 sand:1 cement).
LEAVE FOR 48 HOURS BEFORE USING.
(B) Important information and Operating Instructions:
It is recommended the Rotary Hoist is removed regularly to ensure free and easy removal from the Ground Socket.
Failure to do so, may cause difficulty in removing the Rotary Hoist when the need arises.
Austral’s Warranty does not cover defects caused through the installation or use of a Clothesline Cover or Sunshade.
1.
FOLDING THE ROTARY HOIST
Wind the Head Section down, place your fingers on top of the Bush and
squeeze the Cross and Arms up with your hands (Fig.4). Lift the Latch up
and gently lower the Cross section to fold Arms down. Tie the Line
Retainer around the Arms to ensure lines do not tangle during removal.
2.
REMOVING THE HOIST
With Head Section folded and secured, hold the Main Column with
both hands, lift and turn the column clockwise to then remove.
Fit the Socket Cap onto the Ground Socket.
3.
REPLACING THE HOIST
Insert the Rotary Hoist into the Socket and gently lower onto the Pin. Rotate the Main Column until it drops into position.
Rotate anti-clockwise for the column to lock into position.
4.
UNFOLDING THE HEAD SECTION
Remove the Line Retainer, grasp the Arms and gently pull them outwards. Raise the Cross up as far as it will go as in
Fig.4 and lower the Latch into the locked position. CAUTION: If the Cross will not lift into position, the cords may
have tangled. Carefully check the lines. NEVER force the Cross into position.
5.
LINE TIGHTENING
To tighten the lines, open the lever on the Line Tension Lock. Start from the inner position, pulling the cords as
you work your way outwards. Pull the Cord Knob tight and lock the lever on the Line Tension Lock back into position.
6.
DURING USE
Distribute washing evenly to allow Rotary Hoist to rotate evenly. Wind the Head Section down into the locked position if
hanging washing on windy days. Simply pull on one arm to rotate the Head Section while in this position. When finished,
wind the line up to allow the Head Section to rotate freely in the breeze.
