my advice would be to throw your harris pole in the bin

hello mate, im having trouble sending emails so could you do it on this forum.
sorry to be cheeky but could you also explain do you put the jets and tubing on to the brush head yourselve or do have to buy it complete, and the next thing is could you list everything you need to make this brush, as i want to go to b&q in one trip and get it all. hope you can help and hope to hear from you soon.
kind regards

ok i will try to explain.
drill out the rivet from the top of the harris pole and remove top. cut about 3 inches off the brush handle and insert inside pole.fit a small screw . attach a angle adapter. drill a hole in a couple of inches from the top to insert your hose into and drill a hole in base for hose to feed out or i just saw the rubber end off as close to the base of the pole as i can . then just push hose through top of pole and it will come out of bottom and fix either a quick connector or similar.
you need a bentley brush from asda (smart price indoor brush with handle about £1.80). length of pole hose 20 to 25 ft .angle adapter . quick connector or similar .
i convert the brush as well by drilling 2 holes and fitting jets and it works great and is light on regular cleans.

i use 4mm jets (black) that you get in the gardina irrigation system from your local gardening place.they say 4mm/13mm and look like a cog in the middle.3.99 for 10 .
the hose you need is 4mm tubing from same place or use same tubing as on an ro unit.
i use y pieces i get from the aquarium shop for a few pence.

thanks for your reply karygate the only thing im thinking is the diametre of tubing

cheers
