Assembling your X-Pole
At the centre of the X-Joint are 2 x Keys. These Keys slide into the corresponding U Keyway slots in the pole tube.

Insert a 200mm X-Joint (250mm X-Joint for 40mm
and Silicone poles) into the A-Pole ensuring the keys
locate into the U Slots and the expansion screws line
up with the holes on the pole tubes. Next attach the
B-Pole to the A-Pole with the X-Joint ensuring the
Keys engage with the U Keyway Slots.
Check the tube edges are tight together – then gently
tighten the screw in the A-Pole – now gently tighten
the other tube (B-Pole) – continue to progressively
tighten each, alternating between the two until no
further force can be applied to the screws.
Connecting the A-POLE (main tube with screws & screw adjuster at one end) to the B-POLE.

CAUTION: It is important to tighten the screws progressively – alternating between the screws,
tightening Clockwise. This will ensure the X-Joint pressure is equalised within the pole tubes.
Failure to do so can permanently damage your pole. Joints need tightening regularly and should
be checked each time before using the pole.
