Setup Instructions
- Unfold the Legs: Gently pull the two main support legs outwards until they are fully extended and stable. The airer should stand firmly on its own.
- Extend Side Wings: Lift the side wings upwards and outwards until they lock into their horizontal position. These wings provide additional drying lines and are particularly useful for longer items.
- Attach Small Parts Holders: If desired, attach the two included side brackets to the designated points on the frame. These are designed for hanging small laundry items without the need for pegs.

Operating Instructions
To maximize drying efficiency and prevent wrinkles, follow these guidelines:
- Distribute Laundry Evenly: Spread laundry across the drying lines to allow for optimal airflow. Avoid overcrowding.
- Utilize Folding Wings: Hang longer items such as trousers, dresses, or towels on the extended side wings to prevent them from dragging on the floor.
- Use Side Brackets: For small items like socks, underwear, or handkerchiefs, use the integrated side brackets. This frees up main drying lines for larger garments.
- Indoor/Outdoor Use: The airer is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Ensure it is placed on a stable, level surface.
Maintenance
To ensure the longevity of your Leifheit Pegasus 180 Clothes Airer:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the drying lines and frame with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
- Rust Prevention: The airer is made from rust-resistant stainless metal and plastic. However, prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions may affect its appearance. Store indoors when not in use for extended periods.
- Inspection: Periodically check all joints and components for any signs of wear or damage.
Storage
The Leifheit Pegasus 180 is designed for compact storage:
- Fold Side Wings: Gently push the side wings inwards and downwards until they are flat against the main frame.
- Collapse Legs: Fold the support legs inwards towards the center of the airer.
- Compact Form: Once folded, the airer becomes significantly flatter, allowing it to be stored behind doors, in closets, or under beds.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your clothes airer, consider the following:
- Stability Issues: Ensure the legs are fully extended and locked into place on a flat, even surface. Uneven weight distribution of laundry can also affect stability.
