How do these attach to the pole's surface? Could I use an old swiffer pole and attach the cleaning pads?

I purchased the pole several years ago and the new pads ( which I purchased last summer) work good. Love this product. Deb. Hersko

The pole that is intended to use with the pads has two strips of rough velcro on each side. The pads have the more smooth type of velcro on the back. I'm not sure if it will work with a Swiffer pole since I've never used one of those. I assume if the surface of the Swiffer pole has the rough side of velcro, then it would probably work.

They don't exist. I just got this reply from P&G;Thank you for contacting Swiffer, Robert.I'm sorry you're having difficulty locating the wet cloths for the Swiffer Sweeper Heavy Duty unit. Please be assured that I'm sharing your comment with the rest of the team.We do not manufacture a wet cloth for this product. Hence, we recommend that you use two (2) wet cloths that fit the regular Swiffer Sweepers on the Heavy Duty unit. Thanks again for writing.Nalia R.Swiffer Team

I just used a regular pole clamp, they are only a couple of dollars if you don't have one already.

You use the hardware that was on the old pads. Switch them over. If they are missing or damaged, you can buy a hardware kit..expensive.

There is a standard thread in use from paint brush holder to fruit pickers to paint rollers and so on. If the roof rakes has threads they are in all probability these standard and this pole will fit them.

There are two separate extensions for each pole. You have to loosen and extend each independently from the other extension.

I'm not sure, but I actually use mine on pole too. I went to Home Depot and bot a U shaped screw and attached them that way. Cheers

Not sure how you mean this. If the clips are slipping it may be that you haven't firmly squeezed the two sides of the clip together--and they DO have an up and down position (little arrow, if I remember). Second, if the clips are firmly together, then slide them down on the poles until they fit in the groove on the pole. I've found sometimes that some grooves simply won't hold the clip, so just use the groove above or below. I know this sounds confusing, but I hope it helps. Let us know.

Most hardware stores or even paint stores carry handles/poles that fit this applicator as it has a standard female threaded hole. You will need a pole that has a screw end (male) of the type you use on mops or painting poles. You can buy wood ones rather inexpensively or you can use more expensive ones such as telescoping painting extension poles. I believe I bought my wood one at Home Depot. Hope that helps.

I am guessing you are talking about the sponge assembly. It is very simple. Hold the mop facing, but not touching, the floor like you would if you were mopping. Push the white handle that is located about halfway up the pole all the way forward. This pushes the sponge assembly beyond the rollers and you are able to just slide the old sponge assembly off and slide a new one on.

The Swiffer wet mop pads will not work. The Bottom of this mop head has Velcro stips that hold the pads in place. Rubbermaid Pads are recommended, however there are other pads on the market that will work- if they are the correct length and have a Velcro backing. I am a janitorial supplier- if you need other information -email weg3688@aol.com Broadwaypapernc.net

I would peel up the old pads and stick these where the old pads were. Otherwise they might not adhere to the old pad surface.

Ive got a swiffer mop with the mop solution hanging on it. A vacuum if its really lightweight might work if its hung very securely with anchors or in a stud in the wall. Most things I have around mine are relatively light weight with the one heavier item.

I think they all have the screw end. For this mop-squeegee, you need to also get a tapered adapted. I purchase a plastic and a wood one. Both work OK. The adapter screws onto the pole and the taper snugs into the squeegee.

They have cup brushes that screw right on and ones needing an adapter. Also I would recommend a flap disc (sand paper squares in a flat circle. Also sold with or without an adapter needed). I think you would be VERY happy using a flap disc on a job like that. Wire cup for the heavy rust (so as not to clog the sandpaper) and then flap disc to get down to bare metal. Should go quick, and easier this way. Hope this is all you were looking for and helps. -G-

Answer below is correct. I've found every tool I've purchased attaches the same way to the pole. Use one and you know how they all work.

I think you would have make sure the other brand is exactly that same size as the brush circle. I use the same pole as the mop as it just pops off then press down on to the brush.
