Application

Hulk Earth Anchors are installed at the bottom of the planting hole where the tree root ball is going to be placed. The anchors are installed in a triangular pattern by driving them into the ground with a re-usable Hulk Smasher Rod. This driving process can be done with a hand held hammer or commercially available powered hammering equipment. The hammering process would generally be determined by the size of the anchor, ground conditions and the total quantity of Hulk tree anchoring kits which need to be installed.

The Hulk Earth Anchor is driven into the ground to a depth where only the D-Ring is left exposed, after which the Hulk Smasher rod is removed and the anchor is set in the ground with an upward pull on the anchor tendon. After placing the tree in the planting hole, the Hulk tensioning strap is passed through each of the anchors D-Rings and wrapped over the root ball in a triangular pattern. The strap is then tightened with the ratchet tensioner firmly anchoring the tree into position leaving only the tree above ground level.
