Title: for those who work over 60ft heights
Post by: jouk45 on June 17, 2006, 04:10:58 pm

 I have come up with a simple fantastic machine that  can do all the work for you, you simply put your pole into the slot on the machine, and it mimics the wfp movement, now i know some of you use 2 men for these heights, do you think it would be practical for a machine like this for commercal work only, this machine would eliminate  sore backs and muscles, and you could do a lot more work in a day, what do you think about this idea, thank for any replies

We have just done our first big commercial job at 55 ft + and if there is any way of making it a more simple, less painfull job then your on to a winner  :D

Keep us posted.

How much does the "machine" weigh ?
Assuming that once you get it up there it will remove the stepping back and to which also increases joint movement on your lower spine and hips.Presumably the powered brush provides the agitation to move industrial dirt and the water just flushes the glass.

jeff, the machine has not been build yet, my idea was to put the machine on to a small trailer, the machine does everything,  moves back and forth,  also  the machine moves side ways simutamiasly as the pole  makes the up and down wiping motion,   also another benifit is the machine can be made to go faster or slower,   gazza, your not to far from it this time  ;D  the machine is much simplier than a cherry picker, sarah, i know you have just started doing commercial work, so by the time i build this machine, you will be rich, and you will be able to aford it and become even more rich  lol  ;D,   alexg, if  a machine like this got into the wfp market, do you think it would be a product that would be in  demand,
