MAT-250+ Line Array Tower  

IMPORTANT: 

The manufacturer will not accept liability for any resulting damages caused by the non-observance of 
this manual or any unauthorized modification to the device. 
 

 

The lifting tower is an industrial element designed to raise loads vertically, it must NEVER be used as a 
platform elevator for people. 

 

Only place the lifting tower on firm flat grounds and make sure that it is in vertical position. Do not use 
wedges or any strange elements to balance the hoist. 

 

Check if legs are correctly assembled and secured with their safety pins. 

 

Never raise a load without first checking if it is correctly supported and centered on the appropriate 
lifting tower supports, so the load only acts vertically. 

 

Never surpass the maximum load capacity indicated on the lifting tower characteristics label and in 
this instruction manual. 

 

If there is a likelihood of strong wind or gusts, place the lifting tower on the ground and secure it with 
the aid of straps. Never fix a strap over a vehicle or any other element which might move. 

 

Never use a ladder over the lifting tower or lean against it for any kind of work. 

 

Beware of any kind of projection above the lifting tower like cornices, balconies, luminous signs, etc. 
It is very important to avoid the presence of cables below the lifting tower’s working height. 

 

Never move the lifting tower when the load is raised. It is inadvisable to make any kind of movement, 
even small positioning adjustments. 

 

Never use the lifting tower over any mobile surface or vehicle. 

 

Before using the lifting tower, check the cable’s state, which must not have any broken threads or 
compression. NEVER use defective cables and ALWAYS change the cable if there is any doubt. Only 
use steel cable as described in this manual. 

 

Fix the lever when the load is raised. 

 

The minimum load for the brake function without problems is 25 kg. The brake will not function 
without this minimum load. 

 

Neither grease nor lubricate the winch brake mechanism. Braking disks were greased with a special 
heat and pressure resistant grease. No other products must be used to prevent negative influence 
on brake functioning. 

 

All sections of the lifting tower must be lowered for transport. 

 

Never remove warning or informative labels from the unit. 

 

Never leave any cables lying around. 

 

Do not shake the device. Avoid brute force when installing or operating the device. 

 

Only use the device indoors, avoid contact with water or other liquids. 

 

Only operate the device after having familiarized with its functions. 

 

Avoid flames and do not put close to flammable liquids or gases. 

 

Make sure that the device is not exposed to extreme heat, moisture or dust. 

 

If device was dropped or struck. Have a qualified engineer inspect for safety before operating. 

 

If your Showtec device fails to work properly, discontinue the use immediately. Pack the unit securely 
(preferably in the original packing material), and return it to your Showtec dealer for service. 

 

For adult use only. The fixture must be installed beyond the reach of children. Never leave the unit 
running unattended. 

 

The user is responsible for correct positioning and operating of the MAT-250+. The manufacturer will 
not accept liability for damages caused by the misuse or incorrect installation of this device. 

 

Repairs, servicing and electric connection must be carried out by a qualified technician. 

 

WARRANTY: Till one year after date of purchase.
