Building The Tower
2.6
Assembly
This tower structure must be assembled, and components oriented, in accordance
with this instruction manual. Deviation from this instruction manual is not permitted.
THIS TOWER MUST NOT BE USED AS AN ANCHOR POINT
FOR PERSONAL FALL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT.
•
To fit the optional adjustable legs, a 19mm spanner is required. No other tools
are needed for assembly.
•
The assembly uses the 3T (Through the Trapdoor) method that provides
collective fall protection.
º
From the sitting position in the trapdoor opening fit all guardrails before
standing on the platform.
º
Fit braces in the locations described and
ensure the claws are locked.
•
The tower may be assembled by a single person, but it is recommended that
two or more are used to pass up components on the taller assemblies.
•
Components must be lifted within the footprint of the tower using a reliable
method such as a strong rope with a clove hitch knot.
•
Castor brakes should be locked as soon as the tower base is in position.
•
The tower base should be levelled to within 0.6° before continuing the assembly.
•
The adjustable legs are for levelling the tower only and not to be used to gain
extra height.
•
Ensure when the base is levelled the distance from the ground to the first
climbing rung is less than 400mm.
•
Stabilisers of the size specified in the quantity schedule should be fitted at the
earliest opportunity.
