ECO HAWK-KITE + 5 METRE POLE INSTRUCTIONS
 
HAWK KITE. This Hawk kite is great for Farmers, Gardeners and People who want to protect their ponds and allotments from unwanted birds.

 

HAWK-KITE + 5 METRE POLE INSTRUCTIONS

PACKAGE CONTAINS: Hawk-Kite; 5 Metre Glass-fibre Telescopic Pole in five-sections; Flying Line  Support Stake.

Glass Fibre Poles must be taken down in 25 MPH Winds.


1. Take pole; pull out rubber plug and extend each section, giving a little twist to secure in place, then put on the ground.

2. Clip the kite to the end of the flying line whilst the pole is still lying on the ground, and unravel the line, being careful not to tangle it!

3. Clip other end of the line to the end of the pole, onto the metal tip.

4. Secure the support stake in the ground or to a solid structure, so that at least 2/3rds of the stake is exposed for the pole to slip over.
5. Unscrew the hard plastic cap on the bottom of the pole, bend the hose over at the top of the support stake and slip the pole over the Support Stake.

 

WHY YOU MUST ALWAYS USE THE SUPPORT STAKE TO SUPPORT THE POLE.
The solid Support Stake is very strong, but also flexible enough to protect the pole from the shock effect of sudden gusts during winds. If you just strap the pole to a solid object such as a fence post or chimney breast (very tempting) the pole will always break sooner or later in a gale - even without a kite attached, though its lightweight enough to be deployed from a high place, such as a roof or chimney e.g. 
If you do not use the support stake with the pole, you will NOT be

entitled to a refund or replacement if damage to any part should occur as a consequence.


* If you are operating on concrete, a rooftop, or decking, a steel parasol base or an old tyre + heavy brick can be used as a base. It can be
re-positioned as necessary.  Make sure it is the Support Stake that you put into the parasol base or tyre, not the pole. The Support Stake can be made wider to fit the parasol base with gaffer tape or pipe insulation. If you want to use a railing or fence-post as a support, then tape or strap the lower 1/3rd of the
Support Stake to the railing. Then slip the pole over the top 2/3rd of the Support Stake and secure the Pole.

 

If you find the kite wraps around the pole, try angling the support stake/pole at a 45 degree angle.
