Review: Works beautifully - I bought this to accompany my Leifheit Linomatic Deluxe Rotary Clothes Line with Retractable Lines - 50 mtr (162 ft ) # 82001 and I'm glad I did. When it came, it was bigger than I expected; the screw at the 'ground' end looks like an engine of war. It is carefully machined, no sharp (other than the edge screw thread) or rough bits and it is a reassuring size. It is supplied with instructions, a hole cover, three lock together plates that prevent grass growing next to the post for easier lawn mowing and a sturdy bar to facilitate screwing it into the ground. Following the instructions, I watered the ground first. This made the ground softer and the screw had no problems entering the ground. It became more difficult as I progressed and needed a good bit of muscle to screw it to the recommended depth. It sits level and solid once in place. There is a setting up process to centre the drier that involves twisting the drier in the socket then locking the socket once the pole is vertical. This only need to be done once but can be re-adjusted at any time. The drier slots into the socket without any preamble. There is a very slight shifting from the vertical as the drier rotates but that doesn't bother me at all. Indeed, it is to be expected, I suppose. If you get the drier, get this socket. It will save you time and tears. I'm pleased I bought it.
Review: Long 75 ! - The large rectangular box arrived today and this weighty beast was already bursting through the side wall. For sure, it's a substantial item; as I held it, I received the impression of a precision made shell that I was about to slot in that awesome long 75 of the barrel of a Panther tank; but mercifully this piece of kit comes in peace! Being a weedy sort of chap ( my wife has other words! ) I knew that the tommy bar, which is something like Hornblower would use to subdue an enemy on a moonless night, is essential. Unfortunately my muscles ran out of puff with quite a distance to go. Also getting the thing vertical was a little tricky but then I sat a small spirit level on top of the socket having opened the little red cap and in best submariner tradition used the bubble to keep it level while I turned. My next piece of inspiration, as I realised that I was heaving but it was not moving, was to use a long hollow tube from an old clothes rail, to slip over the end of the tommy bar in order to apply more turning force and round I went until I became dizzy. I stopped just short of the depth one would need to start fracking, but I can tell you that the whole thing is vertical and stable. As the person who also cuts the grass - it still stands proud of the lawn but the need to locate the tommy bar means it will never go deep enough to be flush anyway, so I stopped with about 2 inches to spare. All in all this, as we might expect, is sturdy robust and beautifully engineered. My weedy muscles meant I had to employ one or two tricks to insert it correctly but it fits the 50mm diameter German rotary clothes lines perfectly and would also allow one to move it should the need arise, which is what I suspect most owners would prefer rather than fixing thee whole thing in concrete. I would say that if you have a compatible rotary drier ( can also be used for umbrellas as well ) , then it's essential.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you move the outer ring from 3 to 1?  Ours appears to be totally stuck, so we cannot remove the inner pieces of plastic!**
A: Hi when mine came the collar 3 piece of plastic were inside and were difficult to get out once you have removed them you should be able to freely turn the outer ring, if they are already out then maybe you have a faulty one as mine turns very easly

**Q: Wil it fit a Hill rotary clothes line**
A: Hello, thank you for your question. The Leifheit Rotary Washing Line Ground Socket can support any rotary airer - Leifheit as well as other brands - which has a central pole diameter up to 5mm wide. We trust this helps you. Leifheit Customer Support.

**Q: Is this compatiable with the leifheit linoprotect 400 deluxe rotary washing line**
A: I believe it is but check the diameter of the pole. If they are the same you are ok. This screw is a “pig” to get into the ground. Easy to start but gets progressively harder as you go deeper. After a lot of sweat we got it in but whilst it looked upright, the clothes line pole tilted. Just make the ground soft.

**Q: Has anyone had a problem turning the outer ring to remove the inner pieces of plastic?  Ours seems totally stuck. Thanks.**
A: No - I have to remove ours quite often though as each time the line is removed from the socket the inner (lower) cantering ring tends to move round when it springs up and the line goes out of vertical. But to get the top off I just turn it to the unlock position (3 I think without looking) and then take the top off. It can be quite stiff though and you might need to lever it off once you've turned it to the unlocking position.(For anyone else thinking of buying one - the socket is good idea but poorly designed in my opinion - I also ended up concreting ours in as it would never stay in the ground as intended. I wouldn't recommend  or buy again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ All good so far, very solid.
*by C***Y on 15 September 2016*

I purchased this as an alternative to cementing in the base that came with line, and it has turned out to be easier, with the added advantage of being movable. I followed the installation instructions and it was not that difficult, I cut an inch diameter pilot hole in the soil with a long bread knife, being mindful of keeping the hole perpendicular. I then poured a couple of pints of water into the whole and left it a minute or two to soak in and soften the soil. You need a small spirit level, as you screw the base into the ground, every couple of turns check level on two sides and make adjustments as you turn the bar, Make sure you go deep enough that the cap is equal or below ground level. As the holes for the turning bar are now slightly below ground level the bar will mash up a little of the grass around the hole, not a problem as it will soon recover. However if you wanted to avoid this before screwing in the socket, slip the knife an inch under the surface and peel back five inches of grass using four equal cuts out from the whole.
