The solution is getting another spanner and hooking it onto the first to double the length and increase your leverage.

This was a taper fit and it had to be pressed out, but hitting the taper on the side worked better. I have a big heavy pipe I use for getting more leverage.

Ah yes, Swing-Poles.

It only took my employer 3 projects to realise my arguments about getting them was cheaper than me personally get craned up to the top of each of our poles once a month to do a thing.

Shouldn't they have attached the rope before they removed the bolt holding the pole upright?

It might be fine on most days to do it that way, but one day it'll be windy or water will have accumulated in the light cover and that thing will be moving all on its own and, whoops, how do we get it back up now?

It looks like you need to swing it out a little bit before you can fit the shackle in and attach the rope.

But it also looks like there's a tab you can put something through to stop it swinging out more than just that little bit, which they're not using at all but probably should for exactly that reason.

What kind of backwards cletus worshipping hellscape are they doing where _pushing_ an estop to shut *off* power can kill people?????

I'd push it just to punish them tbh.

I guess I thought that was part of :thejoke:, that it was unclear which was the murder button. :shrug:

I’m mostly surprised that these kind of fixtures aren’t a constant target for bored kids to pull the bolts out and swing them down for shits and giggles.

Given that the buttons we can see are labeled Start and Airlock, I'd bet it's the former. I'd expect green to trap people inside, but start to initiate some process that justifies an airlock.

I was also thinking that, like she deliberately pulls the top over, then kicks the bottom out from under.

All actions lead towards flattening yourself under the rack.

I think she was trying to balance it on two legs to make it easier to drag off. This can work if you understand you shouldn't try to do the splits underneath the thing that's leaning.

My thought was that she didn't know how those small brakes on wheels work or that they exist in the first place.
