Hills Handy Hints
One of the benefits of a Rotary Hoist is that
it spins naturally in the breeze, allowing the
sun to shine on all your clothes and speed
up drying time.
Raise your hoist for maximum drying
efficiency and to ensure clearance for
longer items.
The wind brake assists in the pegging
and unpegging of clothes on windy days
by resitricting the free rotation of the
clothesline. It can be engaged by winding
the ‘head’ of the hoist fully down.
Place smaller items of clothing on the lines
nearest the centre and work your way
outwards for larger items.
When hanging thick or bulky items, you may
hang the item over more than one line.
When you do not expect to fill the capacity
of your hoist, hang your clothes on the outer
lines, this will allow your clothesline to spin
more easily.
Care and Maintenance
It is a good idea to occasionally inspect all
components and check for wear and tear
or damage. If there is any damage, parts
should be replaced with original Hills spares
or the Hoist repaired before using again.
The hoist should be periodically wiped clean
with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
Your Rotary Hoist can be easily folded and
removed from the ground socket to give you
extra garden space.
The hoist should be easy to remove from
the ground, but if left for a period of many
years it may become more difficult. It is
recommended the hoist is lifted out of the
ground at least every six months.
