George & Willy HANGING DRYING RACK User manual


Quite popular in alpine huts, a traditional system used by
climbers to dry their damp clothing overnight.
It made sense to bring this idea into the home - eliminating
any worry of wet washing on the line, shrinking in the dryer
or cluttering your floor space.
Suspended using a pulley system that utilities the warm air
trapped in the ceiling, The Hanging Drying Rack is a fun and
functional solution for drying your laundry.

Raise the Hanging Drying Rack to the desired height attended for
use (chest height recommended). Tie a knot in the two ropes just
behind pulley .This stops the rack from lowering any further.Tie
off rope around the cleat. Cut any excess rope off and melt the
ends for a clean and tidy finish.

We recommend tying two separate knot positions to sit under
the cleat. Trim any excess rope off.

To keep excess rope out of reach, loop the rope up over the cleat.

Warning:
Please note that when the Hanging Drying Rack is in its up right
position, take extra care when lowering as the weight of the rack
will increase when fully loaded with garments when off the cleat.
The minimum height of the cleat needs to be installed at
170cm/67.0" from the ground. Allow for the droop of the loop to
sit over the cleat once it is pulled to its correct position. When
the rack is in its highest position no rope should hang lower than
140cm/55".
We recommend increasing the cleat height if it is still in reach of
young children.
