Push Fido socket spike into the ground in a vertical position and 

insert installation cap into the socket.

required to achieve a satisfactory installation.
Hammer the socket into the ground with even strokes until 

horizontal brackets affixed to the top of the socket are level with 

the ground.  Remove and retain cap for future use.

Take the socket block and screw clockwise on to the end of the 

special insertion tool provided, ensure block is screwed hand tight 

to the end of the thread.  Then using the tool insert the block into 

the socket.

sticker on the tool is level with the top of the socket the 'ground 

lock' is fully engaged.  Twist the socket tool anti clockwise to 

separate the tool from the block.  Remove the tool from the
