1. Select a suitable site near to the laundry with about 1 metre clear on all sides of the area covered by the hoist. Dig
a hole 800mm deep and 200mm in diameter. Place 150mm dry gravel in hole, and then the Main Standard (287).
NOTE: Indents downwards.
2. Stand the MAIN STANDARD upright to check convenient height for operator. Add or remove gravel so that teeth of
Reducer (269) is about 75mm above the head.
3. Mix concrete to the following proportions: 3 GRAVEL :2 SAND : 1 CEMENT. IMPORTANT - CONCRETE MUST BE
MIXED FAIRLY DRY. OTHERWISE THE MAIN STANDARD WILL NOT STAY ERECT.
4. Concrete the Main Standard in position and ram the concrete tight. Check for perpendicular. Slope the surface away
from the post to provide for water run-off. Finish off with fine cement.
DO NOT USE FOR 48 HOURS - SO THAT THE CONCRETE MAY HARDEN PROPERLY.
5. Fit CROSS (295) to SECONDARY STANDARD (289) and secure 465mm from TOP of Secondary Standard to TOP
of Cross. Use Set Screw 13” making sure to position bolt hole in Cross (295) directly below bolt hole in TOP of

sure arms are not pulled out of line with those opposite. Finally cut wire, leaving enough to tie off onto the starting
arm.
13. To tie wire off, pass wire through staple, around arm then using pliers, tension and wind end back around the wire.
