Assembling the base unit
The machine must be installed and deployed only vertically!
The base unit must be aligned at right-angles to the building or scaffolding.
WARNING
Hazard to life through the base unit slipping or tilting.
The support plates must not carry any load, they serve the sole
purpose of adjusting the base unit.
The foot section must be anchored to the ground.
Secure at least two support plates with screws against dislocating.
If this is not possible, one
mast tie
must be installed at a
height of
approx. three metre.
After the base unit is erected, check to make sure that it stands
securely and can be used by personnel to assemble the mast.
Set the basic unit on the support points (support plate of the spindles and,
above all, on the foot section support beneath the mast) on load
distributing and even base supports and align. Observe load-bearing
capacity of the foundation!
The foot section must be supported under the mast and protective
buffer on a minimum area of 1.0 m x 0.6 m, the spindles are only used
for adjustment and not for transferring forces from the mast
sections.
