Grease all moving parts with commercial oil. Wipe off excess oil. Position the stabilizers symmetrically to obtain the MAXIMUM BASE Spigots and sockets should �it together with ease and be secured by an interlock clip. Check frames and braces, adjustable legs and boards for paint, grit, burrs etc. Remove any foreign substance with a light wire Where brace, ladder and platform hooks attach the frames, ensure that the frame rungs are kept clean. Ensure that all locking hooks function correctly. If necessary lubricate with light oil. Please check that spigot are in to the position and should �it easily into frames. The inside diameter of all hooks should be kept clean to ensure they �it to other components without being forced. If in any doubt about the proper use and maintenance of the scaffold tower equipment, consult the manufacturer. Do not misuse or abuse the scaffold tower with heavy objects, hammers etc. Do not throw components in and out of vehicles or to the ground when the tower is being dismantled. Such abuse may reduce the structural integrity of the scaffold tower. Adjustable leg's thread should be clean and lightly oiled. Under no circumstances damage or incorrect components shall be used , Either repair it or get replacement. 1. If you must move a tower, remove all materials and personnel. When moving a scaffold tower, force must always be moved from the base. The tower should only be moved manually on �irm, level ground which is free from obstacles. Normal walking speed should not be exceeded during relocation. The ground over which a tower is moved should be capable of supporting the weight of the structure. Make sure tower height is not above 4 mtr while moving the tower. Recheck the tower level and reposition stabilizer before use . 2. Check the location is �irm and free from pot holes. 3. Raise the stabilizer feet only enough (25mm) to clear the Obstructions. 4. Wind speed should not exceed 29km/h(Beau fort force 4). 5. Check that there are no power lines or obstruction overhead. 6. Before each use check that the MAT is vertical or need readjustment. 7. Whether the structure assembly is still correct and complete. 8. That no environmental changes in�luenc safe use of the MAT. GENERAL SAFETY RULES A risk assessment has been done and safety equipment (Rope etc) and auxiliary tools are available on site for erec�on and dismantling the tower. The ground condi�on will take the working load as specified . The loca�on of tower should be checked to prevent hazards during erec�on & dismantling, moving and while working on the tower. Level and slope, obstruc�on and wind condi�on should be checked. Minimum 2,3 persons are required to safely erect and dismantle the tower. Check instruc�ons before use. Mobile access working towers may only be erected and dismantled by person competent for working on aluminium movable tower. Do not use any scaffold tower which is damaged, which has not been properly erected, which is not firm and stable, and which has any missing or damaged parts. Do not erect a scaffold tower on unstable ground, slopes or objects such as loose bricks, boxes or blocks. Only a sound rigid foo�ng must be used. Ensure that the scaffold tower is always level and the adjustable legs are engaged. Check that you have taken all necessary precau�ons to prevent the tower being moved, or rolling away. Always apply all castor brakes or use base plates. Ensure that all frames, braces and pla�orms are firmly in place and that all locking hooks are func�oning correctly. Ensure that all frame locking clips are engaged. If any missing, replace them. Never mix parts or components from other manufacturers. Damaged components should be replaced with the new components. It is recommended that the ver�cal distance between two pla�orm level is 2mtr. Maximum ver�cal distance between pla�orm level must not exceed 4 mtr. Ensure that the scaffold tower is within the maximum pla�orm height stated, and that the appropriate stabilizers are fi�ed. Outdoor scaffold towers should, wherever possible, be secured to a building or other structure. It is good prac�ce to �e in all scaffold towers of any height, especially when they are le� una�ended, or in exposed or windy condi�ons. A free standing scaffold tower must not be used in winds stronger than 17mph� 27kph� Beaufort scale 4 . Be cau�ous if erec�ng or using the tower in open places, such as hangers or un-cladded buildings. In such circumstances the wind forces can be increased, as a result of the funnelling effect. Do not use sheeted towers. Do not erect or use a scaffold tower near un-insulated, live or energised electrical machinery or circuits, or near machinery in opera�on. If an overhead hazard exists, head protec�on should be worn. Do not lean ladders against the tower, or climb outside of tower. Whatever your intended access system, it should only be used inside the tower. Never climb on horizontal or diagonal braces. Do not gain access or descend from the working pla�orm other than by the intended access system. 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . 5 . 6 . 7 . 8 . 9 . 10 . 11 . 12 . 13 . 14 . 15 . 16 . 17 . 18 . Do not work from ladders or stairways, they are a means of access only. Always li� components from inside the tower. When li�ing materials or components always use reliable li�ing materials to ensure there is no possibility of it falling. Always �e the tower when it is le� una�ended . Guardrails and toe boards must be fi�ed to the working pla�orms. Never jump on to or off pla�orms. Never place the working pla�orm on the guardrail frame. Always keep double height guardrail at each pla�orm levels, never stand on an unguarded pla�orm. DO NOT exceed the safe working load of the pla�orm or structure by accumula�ng debris, material tools on pla�orms as these can be a significant addi�onal load. The tower should always be accessed from the inside using the ladder frame ,never climb up from outside. Ensure that the locking hooks on the pla�orm are func�oning correctly. Beware of horizontal forces (e.g. when using power tools), which could generate instability or overturning of the tower. Maximum horizontal force 20kg. Should you require addi�onal pla�orm height, add further frames. NEVER extend your adjustable legs to achieve extra height, these are for levelling only. NEVER use a ladder or other objects on the pla�orm to achieve addi�onal height. Do not throw the scaffold parts , always lower them to the ground. Mobile towers are not designed to be li�ed or suspended. Permissible load according to scaffold load group is 200 kg/m2 . It is not permissible to a�ach and use hois�ng facili�es on towers, unless specifically provided for by the manufacturer. According to HD 1004 the double width tower must not be exceeded 12 mtr to top pla�orm for indoor use and 8 Mtr pla�orm height (working height 10 mtr) for outdoor use. For single width tower maximum working height for both interior and exterior work is 8 mtr. • If the pla�orm height reaches more than 6 mtr for single width and 8 mtr for the double width scaffold, then it should be secured against the wall prior to use. Always �e to a solid structure, while tying the tower a�ach a �e at 4 mtr interval. The maximum working load on the Ascend span 50 is 750 kg for overall structure (including tower self weight) and 250 kg evenly distributed on the pla�orm. This must not be exceeded. Always take care of Aluminium scaffold tower equipment. Remember your safety depends on the safe erec�on and use of the equipment. 29 . 28 . 27 . 26 . 25 . 24 . 23 . 22 . 21 . 20 . 19 . 31 . 30 . 32 . 33 . 34 . 35 . USE OF STABILIZERS ALWAYS ENSURE STABILIZER SIZE IS CORRECT AND ABLE TO SUPPORT TOWER Stabilizers are to be used, when specified, to guarantee the structural stability of the tower Lightly tighten the upper clamps above the third rung on each corner post. Position the lower clamp above the bottom rung. Ensure the lower arm is as horizontal as possible. Position the stabilizers so that the footpads are approximately equidistant from each other, as shown in Fig 1. Adjust the stabilizer and reposition the clamps as required to make �irm contact with the ground. Ensure the clips with locking pin are in place. When in the correct position, tighten the clamps �irmly. To position the tower against a wall, do not remove the stabilizer; move parallel with the wall. (Fig 2) To position the tower in a corner, remove the inside stabilizer and place the outside two parallel with the wall.

USE OF STABILIZERS

ALWAYS ENSURE STABILIZER SIZE IS CORRECT ANDABLE TO SUPPORT TOWER

Stabilizers are to be used, when specified, to guarantee the structural stability of the tower

Lightly tighten the upper clamps above the third rung on each corner post. Position the lower clamp above the bottom rung. Ensure the lower arm is as horizontal as possible. Position the stabilizers so that the footpads are approximately equidistant from each other, as shown in Fig 1. Adjust the stabilizer and reposition the clamps as required to make �irm contact with the ground. Ensure the clips with locking pin are in place. When in the correct position, tighten the clamps �irmly.

To position the tower against a wall, do not remove the stabilizer; move parallel with the wall. (Fig 2)

To position the tower in a corner, remove the inside stabilizer and place the outside two parallel with the wall. (Fig 3)
