GUIDANCE
When using at heights above 65ft we would recommend using the 90°
gooseneck or an adjustable gooseneck and soft brush. This is because
at these heights the top sections of the pole will be virtually parallel to
the face of the building.
Although the poles feature insulated and isolating handle sections
-
Always check for overhead power cables before use, as carbon
-
fibre poles are good conductors of electricity.
Do not work in Thunder
-
Storms.
Brush compatibility –
if using this pole with your own choice of brush, we
would recommend that you do not fit a brush weighing more than
300g. Do not use this pole with the Gardiner Super
-
Lite or Supreme
45cm brushes as they are too heavy for these poles.
Do not work with more than 3 standard extensions fitted and these
should not be mixed with Hi
-
Strength extensions to go higher. Do not
work with more than 6 Hi
-
Strength extensions fitted.
When working at heights above 45ft always carry out a full risk assess-
ment and ensure safe working practice. We would recommend that
when using this pole with more than one extension a second worker is
used to look after the pole hose and handling of extension sections.
Please ensure a safe working area before using this water fed pole.
Avoid working in high winds with this pole. It is good practice when work-
ing at heights, with any speed of wind blowing, to remove any exten-
sions from the pole before walking it round a corner or between high
buildings.
