Annual control
Your ASC Mobile Tower must be inspected for any defects annually by an expert.
The ASC Group can perform this control for you.
Self-inspection
The ASC Mobile Tower can be inspected by yourself. Before each use, always check the components
for any damage. We certainly recommend larger companies to do a monthly inspection of all
components of the Mobile Towers and to record this inspection. If you are in doubt about damage,
consult an accredited inspector.
Damages
Examples of the most common damages on aluminium Folding tower;
•
Components: if a claw or a sport is loose, the mobile Folding tower must be rejected.
•
Dents and or holes: if there is a big dent in the aluminium or even a crack or hole, the Folding
tower must be rejected.
•
Contamination: if there is too much concrete, paint or other non-removable contamination
on the components, the Folding tower must be rejected; after all, you can no longer judge
whether the components are still intact.
What to do in the event of damage
If there is any damage, which cannot be repaired, the component must be taken out and replaced. If
repairing is possible, please contact ASC Group for further information.

Transport
•
Always transport the components in accordance with the locally applicable legislation.
•
Stack the components correctly for transport; never place the heavy components on top.
•
Transport the components of a Folding tower, preferably standing, f.e in a carrier.
•
Handle the material with care. Do not drop components onto a hard surface; this can reduce
the quality of the material.
3.3
Maintenance
•
Make sure the Folding tower material is clean, especially the connecting pins. The frames
should go in and out easily.
•
Make sure the pawl of the hook of the diagonal and horizontal braces is clean. If necessary,
lubricate it with a little oil. The same applies to the wheel spindle.
•
Replace missing and broken parts in time.
3.4
Storage
Store components of the Folding tower preferably in a dry, clean, dark and frost-free place.
Repairing a component must be carried out by a certified body or person.
