Description
The holder bar is the small part that keeps the cover attached to the pole while you roll it up or unfold it. Version 1 is a straight plastic bar with two holes. When it is broken or has been lost during disassembly, the cover can no longer be rolled up properly and the holder needs to be replaced.

What the bar does
It attaches to the pole through its two holes and gives the cover a stable support. Thanks to it, the sheet does not shift while being rolled up and its edge does not get torn. That is why a cracked or torn holder should not be left for later.
Signs that it is time to replace it
- the bar is cracked or snapped
- one of the holes is torn
- the part is missing after disassembly or winter storage
Step-by-step installation
- Lay the pole on a flat surface.
- Remove the damaged holder, noting how it was positioned.
- Keep in mind that the version 2 holder works together with this one.
- Fit the new bar in the same place through its holes.
- Secure it and check that the cover is held firmly.
Advantages of the original
The part is made by Mountfield specifically for these poles, so it needs no modification. Non-original substitutes sometimes differ by a few millimetres, and that is enough for the problem to come back. Check the code MT05555 and the model of your pole before you order.
Care and storage
Before winter, clean and inspect all the connections. Keep disassembled parts dry and in the dark. Do not tighten plastic threads with a power tool. A new holder should not be combined with neighbouring parts that are already deformed.
The holder is for accessories of the telescopic pole. You will find pool covers in the relevant category of the shop; the other version of this part is bar no. 2. More spare parts can be found in the pool accessories section.
