That is definitely an issue, however I think you were on the right track. While the pole ring adapters we sell--like the 39-336, as well as extenders like the 39-157 and 39-337--are designed for high applications, I see no reason they can't work here, too. These joints have a full 180 degree range of movement. You would still need a pole hook to reach it though, and in your application probably something substantially shorter than a pole. Finding a pole that will be both easy to use, access, and store is going to be the hard part. However the overall principle of using these extenders is still sound and I think it's going to be your best option. It should also be noted that our extender hardware likely won't be compatible with your existing operator's cover. Or, in a best case scenario, it simply won't look nice. You may want to consider the 39-452 and 39-451. |
