How deep should a washing line post be?
Using a post-hole digger, dig two equidistant holes – one for each pole. Make the holes about 12″ – 18″ deep and 12″ wide. The bottom of the hole should be slightly wider than the top — this helps prevent any movement when the earth settles.
Do you need to cement a rotary washing line?
Post Mix Pack: Rotary clothes lines remain perfectly upright due to a solid cement base that prevents the wind from moving the pole whilst spinning the rotating head. Bucket of Water: You will need a bucket of water ready to combine with the pack of post-mix to create the base that your rotary washing line will sit in.
How much concrete do I need for rotary washing line?
Ideally, you will need 20 kilograms of concrete for this project. The upper part of the ground socket needs to be a maximum of 6 mm above the ground level. It is important to keep the concrete out of the surface of the ground socket. Using Plastic sleeve will protect the top socket during concrete filling.
Why won’t my rotary line go up?
If tensioning is not well tightened, there is the likelihood of the wires drooping due to heavy washing. When wires droop, they become loosen and can break off or frayed. The solution to this is to replace the wires with new plastic coated ones. These can be purchased from any hardware store.
