Finally, hold the hook at the end of the power cord. return on the pulley head to the
screwed plate that serves as a ring (Fig. 4.7.5).
4.8 - Turn the winch handle clockwise to collect the cable and begin the process of
elevation of the aluminium sections to place the tower in a vertical position. If you have
a second operator, he will be able to help push the end of the tower up to make lifting
slightly easier and fast (Fig. 4.8).
4.9 - Once the aluminium sections are upright, secure entire tower replacing the bolts
and nut butterfly at the junction of the aluminium section initial with steel base.
4.10 - Turn the winch handle in the direction
anti-clockwise to release the cable and be able to untie the sling without tension, release
the ‘return’ together with the cable and lower it until it can be hooked with the safety tri-
gger placed on the iron carriage of the tower. In the unlikely event that the cable broke,
the trigger would act to lock the tower.
4.11 - Using the Kuzar AN accessories that best suit your needs (see Fig. 4.11), hang
the truss bridge to the iron carriage of the towers, then secure the accessory by placing
the pin in an “L” shape. Fig. 4.11
4.12 - Turn the winch handle clockwise in both towers at the same time, until the carriage
is raised approximately 1.5 m. Then fit the bolted tie rods to the legs and the other end
secure it to the tube of the first aluminium section with the steel claw. Re-level the tower
if necessary, making use of stabilizers.
4.13 - Load the truss bridge between two K-10 towers with the products you want using
approved Kuzar claws and accessories. Remember that the maximum weight for the
K-10 towers it is 500kg, but if you use two towers, the weight is divided, being the total
1000kg (the load does not depend on the height at which the bridge truss is located).
Also remember the maximum load that is placed on the truss bridge supports between
the towers, will depend on the truss section, the length of the bridge, the thickness and
type of aluminium, etc. therefore make use of the load tables that are provided by your
truss supplier.
4.14 - Once the truss bridge is loaded, proceed to raise the towers by turning the crank
winch clockwise, rotating at the same time, pausing lifting if necessary to compensate
for the height and that the bridge is always in horizontal position, raise to desired height.
4.15 - To lower the tower, turn the winch handle anticlockwise, pausing the descent if
necessary to compensate for the height.
ATTENTION: Kuzar AN accessories are designed to compensate for desynchronization
resulting in the raising or lowering of the tower. However, in case of desynchronization
take the precaution of compensating the height of the towers until both are located at the
same height. Never continue without compensating for height as too large a difference
could cause the structure to break or deform.
4.16 - Once the trolleys have lowered to the lowest position, remove the load and the
truss bridge. Then remove the leg braces and lower the trolley to the lowest position
again.
4.17 - Turn the winch handle anticlockwise to release the cable and remove the return
hook of the carriage safety trigger, the opposite exercise being that in step 4.10. Place
