I had a spare but threw it away in the Christmas clear out! - not helpful I know

the drums are pretty much uniform in size so you could pick up a cheap one new/second hand and put the omnivac inlet on it

Your right Soteco made them but the inlet is the bit you can't get..

I think I tried the power pole once - had trouble lifting it  :P - I think it needed renaming "power lifter pole"  ;D
should have been  a challenge for the worlds strongest man  ;D

Lol quite agree you need to do a body building course before using them I did a big building with the 45 foot one and never again Ime quite strong but it’s not something I would want to use again the 35 foot one is also to heavy to use fir a morning , I would be afrade  to let staff use them in case they got a back injury , they are gathering dust in the garage as they have done for  the last 10 years or so 😂😂
