1. DRIVE ANCHOR TO DESIRED DEPTH:
DUCKBILL anchors are driven into the soil using a hammer and steel drive rod. As the anchor is being driven, it is actually compacting the soil around the anchor head.
 

 

 

 

 

2. SETTING ANCHORS IN THE SOIL:
To set the anchor in normal soil, wrap the wire rope around the drive steel or insert rod through loop in wire rope and pull upward a distance slightly longer than the length of the anchor body. The upward pull on the wire rope rotates the anchor into a perpendicular anchor locking position in undisturbed soil.

 


 

 

3. LARGER DUCKBILL ANCHORS:
To set larger anchors, use the fulcrum (lever) principle, manual or hydraulic jack, winch or post puller.
