KSP SHAFT PLATFORM
•
Before moving the formwork that is on the
platform, ensure that no personnel are positioned
between the wall or rebar and the formwork panel
•
Before beginning any movement (formwork,
platforms…), verify that no personnel are exposed
to danger of any kind and notify all personnel
about the movement that is going to be executed.
•
During lifting, operators should be located
at each
support to guarantee the correct positioning of the
different elements (Gravity pawl bracket, Short
gravity pawl, adjustable bracket) on the Box out
cavity or the Folding bracket.
•
It is forbidden for personnel to remain or work on
KSP shaft platforms when the weather forecast
calls for a lightning storm in the area.
•
If it is necessary to work close to high-voltage lines,
it’s advisable to work without tension. If this is not
possible, the according legal references must be
followed.
•
In accordance with the specifications in the “User's
Guide”, it is VERY IMPORTANT to place the anchors
in the concrete as specified, assuring that loads are
transferred from the structure to the concrete
correctly. The correct transfer of loads from the
anchors to the concrete is the customer's
responsibility. The customer should only use ULMA
components to support or anchor the KSP shaft
platform. ULMA will not be held responsible for the
use of materials provided by third parties.
•
For proper removal and recovery of the anchors is
recommended to use lubricants that facilitate
elements extraction from the wall. These lubricants
also will avoid possible entry of concrete into the
anchors.
•
The customer must respect the live load values and
the values of the maximum forces to which the
anchors can be subjected, as specified in the
“User's Guide”. Likewise, the customer must
respect the minimum concrete strength as
specified for the functionality of the KSP shaft
platform. The customer is responsible for checking
and measuring concrete strength.
•
Correct support of the platform on the wall must
be guaranteed before working on the platform.

KSP shaft platform maintenance
•
Before assembling any system component, verify
that it is in perfect conditions to be used (rust,
deformations, etc.).
•
Check regularly the correct positioning and
functionality of the bolts, pins, wedge clamps and
other connectors.
•
Before the first movement and for every
subsequent movement, the pawl’s
problem-less
turning must be verified.
•
Do not do any modifications or changes to the
elements, nor to the KSP shaft platform assembly
without the approval and supervision of ULMA
personnel.
•
All welding operations, which could have
consequences on the functionality of the climbing
system, must be performed with the supervision
of ULMA personnel.
•
A correct packing of the components is essential
for their duration.
