Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How do I know which size soil spike I need?
A: Measure the diameter of the pole or rotary airer you intend to use. The spike must match the pole’s outer diameter:
- 32mm for slim poles
- 40mm for medium poles (most common rotary airers)
- 50mm for heavy-duty or larger airers
Q: Is it easy to install the soil spike?
A: Yes, the spike is designed for tool-free installation using a rubber mallet. It drives securely into the ground without the need for digging or concrete.
Q: Will this work in very hard or stony soil?
A: For very hard ground, pre-softening the soil or using a pilot hole may help. In extreme conditions, a ground spike anchor or concrete may be required.
Q: Can it be reused or relocated?
A: Yes, the spike is removable and reusable. Carefully loosen the surrounding soil before extraction to avoid bending.
Q: Does the galvanised coating protect it year-round?
A: Yes, the galvanised steel is rust-resistant and suitable for year-round outdoor exposure. However, storing it indoors during extended periods of disuse will help preserve its condition.
Q: Is this spike compatible with all Minky rotary airers?
A: Each Minky rotary airer is compatible with a specific spike size. Please refer to your airer's manual or packaging for the correct diameter required.
