DISMANTLING INSTRUCTIONS - All Platform Working Heights

Step 1

The dismantling procedure requires 
a  minimum  of  2  operatives  to 
complete the task safely.

To start, first remove the aluminium 
toeboard assembly.

Step 2

Next,  remove  the  4  guardrails.  To 
remove  braces  or  guardrails,  first 
disconnect  each  brace  at  the  end 
furthest away from the platform trap 
door. Then immediately take up the 
protected  position  detailed  in  the 
3T method. Whilst standing through 
the trapdoor as per the 3T method, 
disconnect the braces completely.

Step 3

Now,  working  from  the  platform 
below, the upper platform(s) can be 
removed.
