Setting Out Fruit Cage Position
When choosing a location for your fruit cage make sure the ground is flat, try to ensure that you have roughly
1 meter of work space surrounding the site. Try to avoid rocky ground and areas close to trees or bushes as roots
can get in the way when installing ground spikes. The uprights of your fruit cage should always be positioned
vertically.

It is important to set the correct positioning
for the fruit cage’s ground spikes, make sure
they are in line, spaced evenly and set at a
consistent height. Take all measurements from
the centre of these tubes. Mark out the length of
your fruit cage (e.g. 3950mm) using the
ground spikes as markers
(SEE FIG1)
.
Insert the ground spikes into the marked position.
If your ground is hard use a mallet to drive the spike
into the ground, make sure you place a plank of
wood over the socket this will protect the steel
from the impact. Use a string line to make sure
the ground spikes are positioned in a straight
line and is square. We also recommended using a
spirit level to ensure the ground spike tube is straight.
