Whether using 36” or 48” plastic rolls, the method of installing the plastic is the same.  Once you’re 

ready to start laying mulch:

• 

First, feed the plastic between the two Mulch Roll Support Tubes.  It does not make a 

difference which direction the mulch roll unravels.  

• 

Next, route the plastic around the front of the Press Roller, and then underneath towards the 

Press Wheels.

•  Pull the plastic under the Press Wheels making sure to keep it straight and unwrinkled.  It is 

helpful to have a second person nearby to assist in lifting the implement off the ground during 

this step.
