Opening the foldable ladder:
Hold the grab (1) on the ladder and release it
from the latch-lock mechanism (2) by pulling
toward yourself. Open the released ladder by
pushing downward (Optionally pneumatic
controlled).
Foldable ladder
Closing the foldable ladder:
By holding at the lower part of the ladder, lift it
upward slowly to prevent the handrail drop
suddenly. By locking the latch-lock mecha-
nism, which is mounted on the fix part of the
ladder, secure the ladder.
Since the handrail is raised while
the ladder is opened, don’t release
the ladder unless you open it
completely. Otherwise the handrail cannot
be raised entirely and it can drop on the
silo tank, thus it causes damage to both it-
self, to the silo tank and to the ladder.
3.15.2. Fixed Front Ladder
The ladder used to climb to the top of the ve-
hicle is manufactured for easiness and safety.
In terms of compliance with UVV rules and de-
pending on the customer's request, the front
ladder is connected to the upper walkway. In
this way, access to the vehicle is provided via
a fixed ladder.
3.15.3. Walkway
To walk on the silo vehicle comfortably, there
is a walkway (1) on the left top side of the silo
vehicle. Use this walkway when you climb on
the vehicle to access manhole cover, filling
neck and top air coupling or to perform main-
tenance and cleaning operations.
Walkway
The walkway has been manufactured as ro-
ugh to prevent slipping. The walkway is chan-
ged according to the vehicle type.
Foreign materials and objects pla-
ced on the walkway can cause you
to slip, stumble or even fall and
thus you could injure yourself.
•
Never place anything on the walkway.
•
Clean the walkway regularly to pre-
vent it from getting slippery and in par-
ticular, keep it free of snow ice in win-
ter.
If the handrail is not raised, you
can fall from the silo tank and be
seriously injured. Always raise the
handrail before you get onto the silo tank.
3.15.4. Rope
A rope is installed on the handrail. It is moun-
ted to prevent the person who works on the
silo tank to fall down.
