Assembly and usage instructions
3. Structural safety regulations
3.1. General information
Chassis beams and stabilisers ensure that the scaffold tower is stable. However, depending on
the place of deployment (indoor / outdoor use), these may need to be fitted with ballast weights.
Please see the parts lists (Point 2.10) for details of the ballast required.
3.2. Attaching the ballast (on 53769 only)
Where the ballast weights are attached and how many
of them are required will depend on the specific setup
and platform height of the scaffold tower. Please refer
to the parts lists in Section 2.9 (lower area of the tables)
for the precise quantity of ballast required
On scaffold towers with stabilisers, ballast weights
with fastening clamps (Order No. 44474) must be used.
The ballast weights must be attached to the stabiliser
– as close as possible to the foot of the stabiliser
.
3.3. Maintenance, servicing, storage and cleaning
The scaffold tower can be cleaned using water with a little household cleaning agent added. Paint
spots can be removed using terpentine. Cleaning agent must not be allowed to soak into the soil,
and used cleaning solutions must be disposed of in accordance with the relevant environmental
protection regulations.
Lubricating moving parts
Lubricate all moving parts (height adjusters, swivel castor bearings, fasteners) with standard
oil. Select a thin-bodied oil when using the scaffold tower in winter. Wipe off superfluous oil. Oil
must not be allowed to drip onto steps and platforms - danger of slipping. Dispose of oil-soaked
cleaning cloths in accordance with the relevant environmental protection regulations.
Storage
The components of the scaffold tower must be stored in such a way that damage is ruled out.
The components of the scaffold tower must be stored in such a way that they are protected from
the elements. During transport to and from the place of storage, the scaffold tower components
must be secured to prevent sliding and impact. The scaffold tower components must not be
thrown during loading or unloading.
