[nfbwatlk] Fw: information about telescoping cane

[Alco Canfield]

I appreciate this instruction.  My cane has managed to survive the
pound-on-the-floor approach quite well.  But I will try to remember to try
the other way.  When you speak of "cap" are you meaning the top?  Just want
to make sure.

Here is some information the NFB has sent to help us extend the 
longevity of our telescoping canes:

Correctly Extending and Collapsing a Telescoping Cane

To extend the cane, pull out each section fully, then twist it with the 
section above it to tighten the connection.
To collapse the cane, untwist each section to loosen the connection.
Note:  Do not collapse the cane by banging it hard straight down to the 
ground, as this pressure may damage the cap.  Always untwist the 
sections to loosen them.
Enjoy your cane!

Cheers Doris
