Hills Handy Hints

Heavy or large items like thick towels, sheets and quilts can be dried on the Portable Clotheslines. 
We recommend placing them over the inner lines, leaving the outer lines for smaller objects.  
We also recommend spreading the load over two lines to allow more air circulation for faster  
drying. Sheets can be folded in half and dried over two lines.
Quilts can be dried by laying them over the Portable Clothesline then pegging the ends/corners 
together to lift them off the floor. When placing washing on the Portable Clothesline, ensure the 
weight is balanced and washing is placed evenly on both sides.
The Hills Portable Clothesline can be used almost anywhere but should not be used in strong  
wind conditions unless it is placed in a protected area and secured.
The Hills Portable Clothesline can be stored when not in use.
The brace that supports the legs includes holes that provide additional hanging space.
Place pegs over the seams in your clothing to avoid or minimise peg marks on the fabric.

Care and Maintenance

It is a good idea to occasionally inspect all components and check for wear and tear or damage.
The Portable Clothesline should be periodically wiped clean with a damp cloth and  
mild detergent.
