converting a harris pole
« on: June 07, 2009, 07:43:14 pm »
I watched a video on how to convert a harris pole for wfp and
cant remember where i seen it, anyone know where to look?
I just want the list of items needed.
I started out with nothing......I still have most of it.

Thanks windowwashers,
i,m going to use my harris for conservatory cleaning,after i,ve
applied tfr with an unger brush and pole.
since i,m not wfp yet i,ve been using a hose with spray gun
but i,m always afraid of water getting in side the roof and mixing
with electrics .
what way do i fit 7mm hose coming out of harris so as to connect with hoselock
quick release to water supply?

you can get the part from gardiners http://www.gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/acatalog/Hose_Fitting_Kits.html

it is the one at the bottom of the page

an easy way to apply tft are is a hand pump sprayer, if you want to be not direct this can be converted using a harris pole aswell.

 by adding this section, you will get an extra 3 and a half ft extra length, its a No4 xtel glassfibre section from gardiners, now it was a fraction small, i wraped 6 times round the collar with masking tape, then cut the slits with the stanley knive, then i tightened it just slightly and it is solid, with plenty more room to tighten if needed,






because the alu is longer you can keep the section slightly up the pole, so as not to damage it sitting on the ground
