MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:
NB: Important Do not mix – Pour directly into hole
- Wet the Hole Thoroughly wet the hole to compensate for any ground drainage which may soak up water required for the QUICK TO SET. NB: In sandy soils line the post hole with plastic to slow water loss.
- Place Place and position post in the hole.
- Add Water Pour 3 litres of water per bag of QUICK TO SET into the hole. When measuring allow for any ground water present.
- Add Quick to Set Immediately pour one bag of QUICK TO SET evenly around the post – do not mix.
- Check Re-check the post’s positioning and sparingly add water to any dry QUICK TO SET visible and level the surface straight away if necessary.
NOTE:
- If using more than one bag of QUICK TO SET, repeat steps 1-5. The layers of QUICK TO SET may be separated by a layer of compacted earth.
- After a minimum of 15 minutes, the hole can be topped up with compacted earth and the superstructure can be drilled or nailed. If left for an hour the post will withstand more substantial pressure such as wire straining.
STORAGE:
- Keep dry and store off the ground.
QUANTITIES:
As a guide: For posts up to 1.8m in length, use one 25kg bag of QUICK TO SET. For larger posts use two bags. Generally the diameter of a post hole should be twice the diameter of the post. For extra strength use more QUICK TO SET.
Water: A measured water supply is required.
