Advice needed re SLX 39 setup
«

Decided to buy an SLX 39 for the occasional high stuff.
I've always opted for a normal quick low angle adapter.
Should I go for a lighter gooseneck?
If so which one?
Also not sure which brush to go for as I only use sill brushes on regular poles.
Which brush would you recommend?
Thanks chaps

Definitely get a couple of goosenecks. I have four including the v long extendable one. Goosenecks help with the higher windows. Re the brush, I would use a medium weight brush with four jets.

I needed a longer reach gooseneck for my SLX40 for several jobs I do.
Someone on here suggested adding a second angle adapter. I did that and have used it that way for years.
I still have an alloy Gooseneck I bought from gardeners a few years before that, but these 2 angle adapters work much better. By straightening the first one out on the pole side the other can be adjusted to suit my brush angle requirement.

you want to order a carbon gooseneck and xtreme brush for high level work...its the lightest you can go........ive got 4....a 90 degree one for solar panels,one 45 degree and 2 x 55 degree...
i use a carbon gooseneck on my everyday main pole usually with an xtreme sill/ultimate or standard extreme brush,their ace!
