[C-Thru]

hi , have just picked up 5 storey hotel, put pole up to see if it reaches and it does, but looks very tricky.Do we just go for it or are there tricks of the trade we should know about, any tips would be helpful, thanks

Use the frame to rest the pole on & final rinse windows.
Read Jasons book.
Take frequent breaks. Make sure if you are on a road people can see you, ie reflective jackets, flashing beacons, your van as a crash barrier with warning lights on etc. Watch out for guests entering hotel.

 How wide is the pavement if you need to step in the road make sure its coned - use enough cones!

If its a busy pavement keep one worker just to direct pedestrians taking particular lookout for disabled people. Put out warning signs,you  dont want anybody tripping over hoses.

Have you ever used the pole at this height before- if not practice controling it at that height before using on the job.
