Operating Instructions - ENGLISH
3.3 - Make sure the tower is in a vertical position, check it by viewing the spirit level lo-
cated on the base profile. If necessary, adjust its verticality using the outriggers, turning
the crank in the appropriate direction.
3.4 - When used outdoors, place the tower on a solid surface and if necessary secure it
against excessive wind force by means of cable ties.
3.5 - Do not use ladders or support them on the tower.
3.6 - Be careful with cables, prominent objects etc. located above of the tower.
3.7 - Do not stay under the load.
3.8 - Do not move the tower if it is raised or loaded.
3.9 - Before using the tower, check the condition of the cable. This should be free of cuts
and wear. Never use damaged cables.
3.10 - Never disassemble the winch lever or any element of the winch under no circum-
stance.
3.11 - Once the tower is set up in its working position it is recommended the winch lever
is locked to prevent any interference with the same.
3.12 - The minimum load for correct operation is 25 kg.
3.13 - Do not grease or lubricate the winch brake mechanism.
3.14 - This lift cannot be used to lift people.
4 - OPERATION.
4.1 - Place the tower in the work area, on a flat and solid surface.
4.2 - Extract the legs from their transport supports and insert them in their working posi-
tion. Check that they are fully inserted and secured with the locking triggers. Also remove
the steel tie rods from the tower for later use, in step 4.11.
4.3 - Place the aluminium sections that make up the tower on the ground, right in the
area towards where the steel trolley tilts (Fig. 4.3). Assemble the aluminium sections
according to your need combining the sections to form a single section of 3, 4, 5 or 6 m.
Make sure the steel pins are correctly positioned and secured with the “R” clip.
4.4 - Loosen and remove the two wing nuts and the aluminium section joint bolts with the
steel base of the tower (Fig. 4.4.1).
Then tilt the steel carriage and place it in a horizontal position (Fig. 4.4.2).
4.5 - Join the truss section that you have formed with the aluminium section of the base
using the Kuzar taper joint, ensure that the steel pins are correctly positioned and secu
-
red with the “R” clip.
4.6 - Place the steel core sling hugging the first aluminium section.
Place it inside the truss, hugging the two lower main tubes and leaving the part open
towards the ground (Fig. 4.6).
4.7 - Next, place the steel cable on the two sheaves of the pulley head making use of the
safety triggers (Fig. 4.7).
Now locate the part ‘forwarding’ (4.7.1). Loosen the wing nut and the locking screw the
return part (4.7.2) and pass the cable by the pulley (4.7.3), replace the hook with screw
and wing nut (4.7.4), then fasten the hook from the ‘return’ to the sling placed in the alu-
minium section of the base (Fig. 4.6).
