Wrenches I have used DPW/ DWP? top of pole in snow areas and as i recall they can go close to 90 degrees. Any oole mount should be able to get close to that number, you may also consider even extending the prop rod. Jerry On May 20, 2015 8:11 AM, Richard L Ratico richard.l.rat...@valley.net

Bob Ellison, Thanks for your quick reply. Checked them out. They only go to 50 degrees and require max. 66 high posts. Looks like radical modification of the recommended post and foundations would be necessary for their product to work. Dick --- You wrote: Try www.ussolarmounts.com

Most pole mounts do not go to 90 deg. BTW. The pivot would need to stick out South of the pole. We make specialty racks, and could build something like this for you. Contact me off list. R.Ray Walters CTO, Solarray, Inc Nabcep Certified PV Installer, Licensed Master Electrician Solar Design
