Hi Mark

It may be worth over the weekend, as Steven says, to check that nothing is jamming inside the over lap. To do so follow this video and it will show you how to remove the section to check - http://youtu.be/VeXQaNUb8-4

I have arranged for a replacement Resi-Neck to be sent out to you today.

its the same on mine the crap that comes out of the pole. the clamps get bunged up with it. so give it a good wash down and free the clamps off you will be amazed when you have done it. undo the clamps and put same insulaion tape at the bottom of the pole sections this will stop the section sliding off.

We don't use Gardiner but on the Ionic poles the sections are very close.
Have you tried taking a action off, rinsing down it, twisting the section, with water to wash any grit out, repeat on all sections then a little spray of WD40 along the length of the pole, wipe it off or it goes gunky the WD40 the clamps.
Ionic are now saying to do that weekly...
