A bifurcated hose junction (60) is provided for a pole mounted abrading device with vacuum assisted particulate removal. The junction (60) is actuated by the movement of the sanding pad assembly (18). When a short side of the rectangular sanding pad assembly (18) is moved toward the tubular handle (78), the bifurcated hose junction (60) is displaced laterally in relation to the linear axis of the handle (78). When a long side of the sanding pad assembly (18) is moved toward the tubular handle (78), the bifurcated hose junction (60) rotates in place, thereby allowing the sanding pad (18) a comprehensive range of motion, in relation to the handle (78). The range of motion enables the operator to close the angle between sanding pad (18) and the handle (78), and maintain planar contact between the sanding screen and the work surface, when working in constricted areas.
