GENERAL INFORMATION
The “ALU-50” aluminum towers are designed to carry out work at
height, following the indications detailed in this Instruction Manual.
According to the UNE-EN 1004: 2006 standard, they correspond to a
scaffold class 3. The maximum allowable load, evenly distributed, on the work
surface is 200 Kg / m2. On models with more than one level of platforms, the
lower levels should not be loaded (they are only designed to facilitate access
to the upper level).
Considerations regarding adverse weather conditions:
This instruction manual must always be available at the place
of use of the tower for any queries that may be made.
The tower should not be used when weather conditions are
adverse enough to produce slippery surfaces (caused by the
accumulation of water or ice layers on the platforms) or
unstable (sudden movements of the structure caused by the
wind).
