Troubleshooting

Airer is wobbly or unstable

Ensure the ground spike is fully inserted into firm, level ground. Check that the airer is seated correctly onto the spike.

Lines feel loose or sagging

Check the tension of the lines. Some models have adjustable lines; refer to the manufacturer's instructions if available. Ensure the load capacity of 20 kg is not exceeded.

Difficulty inserting the ground spike

Soak the ground with water to soften it. Remove any stones or debris from the spike's path. Use a mallet gently.

Rust spots appearing on the frame

Light rust spots can often be gently scrubbed off with fine steel wool. Touch up any exposed metal with a suitable outdoor paint or coating to prevent further corrosion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Choose a suitable location, ideally outdoors on level ground where the airer will receive adequate ventilation and sunlight.
Insert the ground spike into the chosen spot, ensuring it is firmly in the soil. A mallet might be useful for this step.
Place the rotary airer onto the ground spike, ensuring it locks securely in place.

Compatibility:

This rotary airer is compatible with most outdoor garden settings. It requires ground that can accept the spike. It can also be used indoors in spacious areas such as utility rooms, garages, or large bathrooms where floor space is available, though securing it indoors may require an alternative base if the spike cannot be used.

Care:

Regularly check the powder coating for any damage to prevent rust.
Wipe the airer lines with a damp cloth occasionally to remove dirt or mildew.
When not in use for extended periods, especially during harsh weather, deploy the protective cover to maintain its condition.
Ensure the airer is dry before folding and covering to prevent mildew.
