6.1 Wear and tear of the tensioning line used to open the clothes airer

The tensioning line 12 is an essential part of rotary clothes airers. It is

therefore made of very strong material, and designed to last over the years.

Nevertheless, it may be necessary to replace the tensioning line over the product's service life. If torn fibres appear on the outside of the tensioning line (frayed cord), replace the tensioning line with a new original one as soon as possible. You can obtain this, stating your type of clothes airer, directly from us.

A defective tensioning line can rip suddenly when using, causing you to lose your balance (worst case scenario) risk of injury.

Caution! After opening each time, place the tensioning line 12 over the arm so that it does not become soiled from the ground or threaten children

with the risk of strangulation.

6.2 Wear and tear of the main standard

The main standard 10 that rotates in the ground anchor 8 can be exposed to wear and tear depending on the ground conditions. Please

check the area of the main standard where it comes out of the ground anchor for wear and tear at least once a year. Although the main standard has been manufactured to strict quality requirements, grooves can appear in this area

and weaken the main standard. If you notice deep grooves all around the main standard, or any severe dents, please replace the main standard with a new original one as soon as possible.

Deep grooves or severe dents on the main standard, caused by a lawnmower or a wheelbarrow for example, can weaken the main standard,

which can fall down due to strong wind or uneven distribution of laundry on the airer, and can cause physical injury.

You can obtain a new main standard, stating your type of clothes airer, directly from us. Replace other spare parts such as pulleys and rivets always with approved original spare parts, only these will ensure the safe function your clothes airer.
