Cherrypicker and the use of
« on: November 24, 2006, 01:44:15 pm »
Been asked to quote for a 6 floor hotel (20 years old)with large inward sloping windows.
It was suggested Cherrypicker would most probably have to be used.
Because of the inward sloping windows it will be impossible to do using WFP at ground floor level. (window incline is opposite of say a car windscreen)
Has anyone used a cherrypicker and WFP'd off the platform?
Can the 100 psi sureflow pump push the water to the platform?
Any advice/opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi, I have used 85ft cherry picker. 12ft pole, minibore hose,100psi pump, worked really well.

it will probably only work with microbore hose but me personally would probably use traditional way of cleaning from the cherrypicker because the pole can be awkward to use while standing in the small platform of cherrypicker,i know i have tried it.

we use wfp on a cherry picker, never been a problem but a good tip is to tie wrap hose to cage so not pulling on pole hose
