1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Take care when using and moving scaffolding,
extended ladders and other such equipment in the vicinity
of power cables - risk of potentially fatal electric shock.
WARNING!
Ensure Health and Safety, local authority, and
general workshop practice regulations are adhered to when
using this equipment.
3
Familiarise yourself with the application and limitations of the
scaffold, as well as the potential hazards.
3
Maintain the equipment in good condition.
7
DO NOT
use the equipment if any parts are damaged or missing
as this may cause failure and/or personal injury.
3
Replace or repair damaged parts. Use genuine parts only.
Non-authorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the
warranty.
3
Keep the work area clean, uncluttered and ensure there is
adequate lighting.
WARNING!
Use scaffold on level and solid ground and ensure
the brakes are applied and/or that the scaffold is anchored and
held firmly in place by some means.
WARNING!
DO NOT erect or use the scaffolding on sloping or
unstable ground.
WARNING!
Never over-reach when on the scaffolding.
3
Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the working
area.
7
DO NOT
use the scaffolding for any purpose other than that for
which it is designed.
7
DO NOT
allow children to climb the scaffolding.
7
DO NOT
use the equipment when you are tired, under the
influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.
3
When not in use store in a safe, dry, childproof area.
7
DO NOT
use the equipment without side guardrails, knee rails
and toeboards fitted. Use all the components supplied.
3
When used outside, mobile scaffold towers should, wherever
possible, be secured to a building or other reliable structure.
3
It is good practice to tie in all scaffold towers of any height,
especially when left unattended or in exposed windy conditions.
Use only the recommended wall anchors.
3
Beware of strong wind conditions. Do not erect or use a
freestanding tower if the wind is likely to exceed 7.7 m/sec
(17mph or Beaufort force 4).
3
Take care when using mobile scaffold towers in hangers or
uncovered buildings as wind force may be increased due to
funnelling effects.
7
DO NOT
climb a tower from the outside. Never climb on the
horizontal or diagonal braces. You should only climb the tower on
the inside using the ladder end frames.
7
DO NOT
lean ladders against the tower. Never use ladders or
boxes to gain additional height.
3
Ensure that all personnel, tools and materials are removed from
the tower prior to moving it. Only move the scaffold tower
manually on a firm level surface, which is free of any obstacles.
Only move it longitudinally or diagonally. Do not exceed normal
walking speed. Raise the stabilisers 12 mm (½”) from the ground.
After moving re-lock the castors, check that the tower is level
and ensure that the stabilisers are secure and have a firm footing.
7
DO NOT
exceed the safe working load of the platform. The
maximum capacity of the working platform for an evenly
distributed load is 1.5 kN/m² (according to HD1004 – scaffold
tower Class 2)
7
DO NOT
jump on to or off the platforms.
7
DO NOT
use any lifting equipment on the mobile scaffold tower.

Stabilisers and ballast weights shall always be fitted where
specified. Ballast is used at the base to stabilise towers from
overturning. Ballast must be of solid material (i.e. NOT water or
loose sand) and should be positioned so as not to overload
individual legs. Ballast should be secured from accidental removal.
3
Keep equipment clean and inspect before and after use for
damage. Use serviceable equipment only. All working parts e.g.
castors, adjustable legs; stabiliser clamps should be lubricated
lightly with oil. Repairs should only be carried out by the supplier
or other competent person approved by the supplier.
