Before you start:
1. Select a suitable location for mounting VD351- Hawk Kite Kit
1.1
It is desirable to angle the Hawk Kite systems pole 10-15 degrees off
vertical, pointing away from the prevailing winds i.e. if prevailing
wind is South Westerly then angle the mount pointing to the
North East. The purpose of this is to prevent the kite from tangling
around the pole when there is insufficient wind to launch the kite. By doing
this the amount of maintenance intervention will be kept to a minimum. This
factor should be brought into consideration when selecting an appropriate mounting location for the
VD351 - Hawk Kite Kit.
1.2
The kite must be located in the centre of a 10m square area that is free from any obstructions
that the kite would otherwise strike and become damaged. Pay particular attention to any overhead
cables and position the kite well away from any overhead obstructions.
ü
Do: Move your Hawk Kite regularly to prevent
birds getting used to it.
ü
Do: Tie the kite to the cleat on the telescopic
pole if excessively strong winds are forecast.
ü
Do: Shorten the line on the kite by a
maximum of 1-metre, to avoid obstructions.
Hawk Kite should hang approximately 1-metre
above surface to be protected.
ü
Do: Inspect the kite at regular intervals and
check for signs of tangling, release tangles
immediately to maintain effectiveness and
prolong service life.
û
Don't: Fly your Hawk Kite: under or near power
cables, near public byways, footpaths, bridle
paths, roads or anywhere that use of the kite
may cause a risk to others.
