8. Adjusting the width of your Folding Frame Clothesline
1.
The width of the Multi Folding Frame Clothesline can be reduced to your specific installation needs or to align with existing
framing.
2.
Determine the new Wall Bracket spacing for your installation location.
3.
Choose the best model configuration that is longer than you need. Determine the length that you need to reduce your
assembled Front Bar by. This length will need to be split in two and taken from both ends of the assembled Front Bar. Be advised
that the Corner Brackets need to be included i
n the overall length of spacing (1 ½” (40mm) overall).
Amount to cut from each end of the Front Spreader Bar =
Mini Line -
Factory width spacing (45 5/8” (1160mm) –
Desired Spacing
–
1 ½” (40mm)/2)
Slim Line -
Factory width spacing (86 5/8” (2200mm) –
Desired Spacing
–
1 ½” (40mm)/2)
Long Line -
Factory width spacing (130 3/4” (3320mm) –
Desired Spacing
–
1 ½” (40mm)/2)
4.
Be careful when cutting with a hacksaw to ensure that you do not slip and damage the finish. In addition, make sure to keep the
cut edge square. You may need to clean up the edges with a file after cutting. The Corner Brackets must be able to slide in easily.
5.
Measure 25/32” (20mm) from each end of the Front Bar. Drill a centered replacement hole 3/
16
” (
4.5mm) in the bottom of both
ends of the Front Bar to secure the Corner Brackets.
