Can I use my existing rotary clothesline pole and just replace the top section?

We often get asked if using your old existing concreted pole and just replacing the top section is possible on a fixed (concreted in) rotary clothesline?

While our answer is 'Yes anything is possible if your are an engineer' or if you can replace with the exact same model that has the same pole size, my best suggestion is often to actually start with a whole replacement fixed rotary clothesline, and here is a great way;

-Cut the existing clothesline pole off at ground level with a grinder and remove.
-Extend your existing path slightly longer with new concrete which the replacement pole will be fixed in. See picture/diagram.

I suggest this because of afew reasons such as,
-Pole sizes are not very often the same between models, 
-Warranty can be void if old parts are joined to half a new clothesline
-Pole height may not be correct 
-Fixing/joining poles maybe loose, when it needs to be fixed and firm

Do you have any further questions?
