Title: Extreme 47 extentions
Post by: Matt. on June 27, 2016, 11:23:35 pm

Hello guys

So I have 3 of these on my extreme 47

http://gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/all-products/water-fed-poles/extension-sections-for-telescopic-poles/hs-modular-extension-10.html

Looking on the web site they have this

http://gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/all-products/water-fed-poles/extension-sections-for-telescopic-poles/triple-telescopic-extension-pack-10-12.html

Am I rite in thinking this will just slot straight into them ones am already using, as opposed to buying singles

Thanks
Matt

The Triple extension pack will fit on to the Xtreme 47 instead of your 3 modular extensions and give you a fully telescopic 60ft pole.

Technically you could add the triple extension pack to the base of your last modular extension when fitted to the Xtreme but it has not been tested for this and may compromise the rigidity. This would give you a 75ft pole.

Thanks very much Alex,
i was hoping to be able to add on to the extensions I already have, as am hoping to achieve 75ft, without having to shell out 3k on that high reach pole u av.
I have a site visit booked in this week so I will know the exact height of the highest section of glass I have to clean.

In ur opinion Alex do u think the pole will be safe with that many sections added  on

Thanks
Matt

In my opinion it would be structurally safe - although untested by us  :)

That's fair enough Alex, the pole is fantastic to use at heights, and even  tho it can be a bit whippy In the wind at 60ft plus I think u will get this with any pole working at them heights.
It's just a case of getting a day with very little wind ......
Am going to go measure what I have against the job and will get a pic, as it will be a bit of a guess from were I can reach to were I new to be.
Thanks again Alex
