Troubleshooting
Airer is wobbly or unstable.
Ensure the ground spike is sunk deeply and securely into the ground. Check that the airer pole is fully seated in the spike and that all ground fittings are tight.
Lines are sagging.
Check if the lines are properly tensioned. Some models may have a tensioning mechanism; refer to your specific assembly guide. Ensure weight is distributed evenly.
Airer is difficult to fold or unfold.
Check for any obstructions or debris that might be hindering movement. Gently work the mechanism back and forth. Avoid forcing it, as this could damage the parts.
Rust spots appearing on the frame.
Although designed to be weatherproof, minor rust may occur on exposed edges over time. Clean with a soft brush and consider applying a metal-specific protective coating if extensive.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Identify a suitable level location in your garden, free from obstructions.
Assemble the ground spike according to the included instructions. This typically involves sinking the spike a significant depth into the ground to ensure maximum stability. Use a mallet or hammer if necessary, ensuring the spike is vertical.
Once the ground spike is securely in place, place the airer's main pole into the spike. Ensure it fits snugly.
Unfold the arms and adjust the lines to their full extension.
Compatibility:
Requires a patch of ground firm enough to securely anchor the ground spike. It is not suitable for hard surfaces like concrete or decking without an additional compatible socket (not included).
Care:
Wipe the steel frame and lines periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust.
Ensure the airer is dry before folding it and placing the protective cover on.
Store the airer with the protective cover when not in use for extended periods, especially during harsh weather, to prolong its lifespan.
