Hi Nelly, had the same problem with a 4.2m I was using the loppers attachment and the branch got tangled and bent the lower section like it was a..........thin aluminium oval section or a plastic straw. After some consideration I calculated the section modulus and calculated the load on the section and concuded that it wasn't up to the job. I knew the Engineering Degree would come in useful. Anyway I pointed all this out and the fact that a product must be fit for function as it was described as "professional" and the supplier backed down and supplied a replacement part free of charge. In hindsight I wish I had bought a different product.

PM me if you wish to know more.

Pretty easy to get parts for. Any silky dealer should be able to sort that out.

Which section is it? I'll sell you the corresponding pole from my set for £200.

Bent the same section and from memory it was about £50 going back about 6 years so be prepared for the worst
