- Fitting Instructions
- Remove old gooseneck from the pole
- Take the hose coming up the pole and push-fit into the 8mm push fit connector o the base of the gooseneck valve assembly
- Slide the gooseneck valve into the top of the pole, push fully in and close the top clamp – ensure that the top pole clamp is firmly tightened so that it holds the gooseneck valve base with it being able to spin
- Fit a brush to the top of the gooseneck valve and connect the brush T connector to the top piece of tube from the valve
- Before first use ensure that all of the pole clamps are correctly tightened – it is important that the pole clamps firmly clamp the pole sections when using this valve
- adjust the gooseneck valve adjuster so that it operate with the desired force needed – TIP, when working at height this will need to be loosened off compared to ground and first floor work
How to Operate
- Extend the pole to the window, position the brush in the top left hand corner of the window and twist the pole to the right (clockwise from the pole base)
- When finished position the brush head on the bottom right hand corner of the window and twist the pole to the left (anti-clockwise from the pole base)
- Move to the next window and repeat
