PREPARATION

1. Determineasuitablelocationfortheun-

dergroundreel.Anideallocationwould

havegoodsoildrainage,andalevel

surface.

2. Removethesodorlandscaping,anddiga

holeapproximately48”x48”x51”deep.

3. Place12”ofdrainagestoneonthebottom

ofthehole.SeeFigure3.

NOTE:Installingadrainagepipemaybeneces-

saryinpoorlydrainedsoils.SeeFigure4.The

drainagepipemaybeconnectedtoanexisting

drainagesystem,asubmergeddrywell,ora

culvert outlet.

NOTE:Consultlocalconstructioncodesand

regulationsbeforeconnectingtoanexisting

drainageorstormsewersystem.

CAUTION:Thereelwillbedamagedifit

becomessubmergedinwater.Adequatesoil

drainage must be provided.

bringthebottomoftheholeto39¼”

fromthetop.Donotoverfillthehole,itis

easier to add more stone later if necessary.
