I have some commercial windows with a 3-4" ledge. I tried the Mr LongArm Pro Curve on these windows and having trouble with trailing on the right side. I tried the using the elbow (curve) facing down and no trailing but could squeegee all the way down to ledge as the elbow hits the ledge before the squeegee gets to the ledge. When I turn the pole with the elbow facing UP then I get trailinjg on the right side of the squeegee. I tried adjusting my stance closer to the building or farther away–thinking this would change the angle of the squeegee on the window but still got trailing on the right side of each straight pull. Any suggestions would be helpful. Brad BD Janitorial
Have you tried a ladder?
if u have 3-4" ledge u will prob have to use a ledger for good results on a pole the curved poles and angle arms are only really effective up to 2-3" ledge.
pole work isn’t something you can just do coz you want to it requires quite a lot of practice and good initial training helps
My co-worker uses one of those. It’s not 24’, but it takes practice. He twists and presses the squeegee end into toward the seal to keep it from dragging. I have a hard time with these bent things, but can see the benefit in using one.
If you have a swivel type squeegee handle, try using that feature and close out the bottom of the window with a side pull.
Than you guys for the replies to my question. I do appreciate the answers/suggestions. 1 fall off a ladder was enough for me, so no more ladders. Brad BD Janitorial
