Steven, the 22 carbon pole at 1300g is this just the bear pole?

I would guess so, as they don't come with a brush. Gardiner quotes are without a brush also

Includes sleeve ejector and aqua dapter.
Not interested in forcing people to use a brush that they may not want.

Ok, I have one in my cart but..... I would love to see how it's set up with the A/D
I also have a retus 26 on the end one my microbore so this would need changing to a female retus?

Hi guys
first time buyer get 15mtr hose, sleeve ejector, rectus fitting, and aqua dapter.
second pole you won't need ejector or hose as that is bought on first purchase.
when you use our new system we are confident you will not want to work with any other pole or system.

How quick and easy is the aquadapter at shutting the water off between windows? As quick as a tap on your hip? If so I'm seriously considering this option.

I'm just a little dubious about the longevity of the rectus 21 fittings. I've changed all my poles over to 26's as the 21's could leak in less than a weeks use.

I can tell you Aqua Dapters are instant. I love them. As for how long Rectus 21 lasts. I am worried also. I had no luck with them, so change do another type. Also no luck. If they are a quality make, should be ok as they are covered. Had some rubbish makes

Yes the Aqua daptor is far faster than any inline tap, whether it's on your hip or floor.

Steve - I will argue the point with you, I would always require an ejector sleeve and A/d ( well the first 6 anyway  ;) ) some of us have more than van you know

Always get Parker hannifin made connectors

These get dragged all over the show never leak and usually last 8 to 12 months, in fact the last one only got damaged because I threw the hose off a four storey roof and the connector hit the concrete instead on landing on the pile of hose

I have made my pole work similar to this.

Having a pole with no joint at reel

ReplyQuote
I have rigged my pole up so there is no join to the Trolley reel showing when I am working. For anyone interested.
First, I dont use a Tap on the end of the pole hose. I use an AquaTap, So this will work for AquaTap, AquaDapter (I think) and remote controls.
First I Took the old pole hose off and eplaced it with a smaller one that just hangs out of the end of the pole by 2 or 3inches





Then connect the hose to the Trolley reel as usual, without any protecta ball or obsticle



I put a little sticky padding around the male end section just in case the connection could release while sliding up and down the pole



Then I slightly extend the first section of the pole around 5 or 6 inches. This pulls the fitting up inside the pole.



And thats about it. A pole with a straight through hose with no connections showing



At the end of the day just collapse the first section completely and the connection pops out to disconnect.
Just a matter of getting used to not closing the pole the final 6 or so inches when working, perhaps marking the pole or something.
I use an SLX 22 and the closed length of the pole is only 1.49 metres so the pole is smaller than many, but I have always worked leaving the first section fully extended anyway to save on clamp wear as I only do tops WFP.
This can also be done using a normal 8mm pushfit fitting instead of rectus fittings, and also I have tried it with my microbore hose on the van mount and it works with that too.



O rings are not on as I was just testing to see if it works.

Not a good pic but works fine on van mount reel

Note that pole hose is a lot lighter than reel hose :)
