Assembly Instructions
Access routes and working areas
Safe access to all working areas must
be guaranteed at all times.
Working areas must remain free of any
tripping hazards.
Always keep working platforms clean.
Avoid installing working areas and ac-
cess routes in areas of risk.
Cordon off areas where there is a risk
of falling, such as building openings.
Secure the hydraulic unit in an upright
position on horizontal scaffold tubes or
handrail boards, or set it down on
load-bearing ground and secure.
The pump must stand perpendicular to
the level ground.
Assembly
Unexpected hazards can always arise
when assembly work is carried out. As-
sess the degree of risk in each individu-
al case and, if necessary, take meas-
ures to prevent or at least minimise the
risk.
If guardrails cannot be used due to
technical reasons or have to be re-
moved, site personnel should be safe-
guarded by other means (e.g. through
rope protection).
Site personnel are not permitted to loi-
ter beneath areas where assembly
work is being carried out, unless the
area of risk has been provided with suf-
ficient protection against falling, over-
turned, sliding or rolling objects and
masses. Areas of risk must be cor-
doned off.
Crushing risk!
Do not touch if the load is moving!
Protection from falling objects
Secure tools and material to prevent
them from falling down. Remove con-
crete residue and other dirt.
Avoid installing working areas and ac-
cess routes in areas of risk. If this is
not possible due to work procedures,
suitable equipment (e.g. protection
roofs and toe boards) must be available
to provide protection against falling ob-
jects. This also applies to work that only
takes a short period of time.
Operational working areas at great
heights are to be secured by means of
appropriate structural measures to pre-
vent objects from falling down. Safety
nets (mesh size ≤ 2 cm) and platform
planking are considered to be suitable
means and are to be installed very
close to the structure (distance
≤ 5 cm).
Operational faults
■
Set down the platform in the next
possible position and secure.
■
Leave the climbing unit via the safest
route.
■
Notify an authorised person immedi-
ately.
Maintenance and repairs
■
Only materials in perfect condition
are to be used.
■
Climbing system components are to
be checked for signs of damage by
qualified personnel on a regular ba-
sis. Dirt which affects functionality is
to be removed immediately.
■
Damaged components should be in-
spected, removed and replaced.
■
In the case of recurrent damages,
the cause must be determined and
rectified.
PERI climbing hydraulics must not be
used if the type plate is missing, in-
complete or illegible.
Climbing procedure
Only anchor climbing units to the next
concreting section once the required
concrete strength has been reached.
The moving process may create build-
ing edges between the platforms. If
work is carried out in this area, site per-
sonnel must be safeguarded against
falling (e.g. using rope protection).
Cordon off areas of risk.
Prior to the climbing procedure, plat-
forms must be cordoned off to prevent
inadvertent access.
During the moving procedure, neither
persons nor construction materials or
tools are allowed to be transported,
with the exception of operating person-
nel.
The operator must establish observa-
tion posts prior to the climbing proce-
dure.
Monitor the engagement of the climb-
ing devices, the pawl of the climbing
shoes and the insertion into the climb-
ing shoes.
When climbing with climbing hydrau-
lics, details regarding the arrangement
of the hydraulic hoses, data cables and
power cables must be taken into con-
sideration.
