I'm just doing mine right now. What follows refers to the earlier folding hoist model Rotary 42, not the fixed wire line models, or the current Hills folding hoists with this type line anchor

http://www.breezedryer.com/index.php?p=product&id=791

I found that Hills don't sell new line direct, so I got some poly core line from Mitre 10, 60m for $30.

Study how the original line was strung through the clips and how it was tied at each end, and you will find that you have to remove 4 plastic wedges which secure the line in the end caps, these things

http://www.breezedryer.com/index.php?p=product&id=792

The wedge is not shown. You just push it out upwards. Then cut away and pull out the old line from all the clips, these things

http://www.breezedryer.com/index.php?p=product&id=741

Then tie the line onto one end cap as it was before, and restring the whole hoist. To get the line into the clips, you can carefully lever a bit with a screwdriver.

Don't worry too much about tension yet, just leave the line a bit slack on each run. You will have to pass the coil of line over the top of the arms many times. Finally cut it off after the final run, leaving enough line hanging down to secure the arms in a bunch when the hoist is folded up.

Make the final knot as it was, and then, without skewing the arms sideways, remove any slack going around and outwards, and finally pull in and tighten the final knot at the outer end, and replace the 4 wedges.

The line will stretch, so you may need this final step once more.

Why will my Hills Hoist /villa 37 "free-wheel"......there is enough breeze.

Hi Bonnie,

The Hills Everyday Villa 37 has a breeze brake which is the top section of the clothesline. What this does is locks the clothesline in position to allow for ******* on windy days.

To get the clothesline to Free Wheel you need to make sure it is wound up enough to miss this breeze brake section and allow it to spin in the wind.

If you are looking for more help you can further documentation on Hills Rotary clotheslines here https://www.lifestyleclotheslines.com.au/folding-rotary-clotheslines/hills-everyday-37

For replacement parts you can also find help and advice here https://www.lifestyleclotheslines.com.au/clothesline-spare-parts

How to reline a hills rotary clothesline model FD88002

The Hills Rotary 7 Clothesline FD88002 is one of the new Hills rotary models and does have easy line replacement.

This Hills Rotary clothesline has a line tensioner and cap that covers the catch.

You will need a small screw driver to pop off the caps.

Next step is to remove the line from the tensioner

You would then thread the new line through and re-tension the line as per the instructions in the manual or video below.

You can find the Hills Rotary 7 Manual here for free download.
Hills Rotary 7 Clothesline Owners Manual FD88002 FD88003

Below is the video on how to re-tension the lines.

This is the replacement line that Hills make which comes in a 70m pack which is the length you would need if you are re-wiring your whole clothesline.

Here is the video on installing this clothesline as well in case this also helps.
