4.1. Ground Spike Installation

The ground spike provides stable anchorage for your clothesline. No digging is required for installation in suitable ground.

1. Select a level, clear area in your garden, ensuring sufficient space for the clothesline to rotate freely (approx. 10.12 ft diameter).
2. Place the metal ground spike (code 2) at the desired location.
3. Using a sledgehammer and a piece of wood (to protect the spike), carefully drive the spike into the ground until it is flush with the surface. Ensure it remains vertical during installation.
4. Once installed, the closable cap can be used to cover the opening when the clothesline is not in use, preventing debris from entering.
