Read this instruction manual carefully.

Instruction manuals are also available to download from our 
website at zarges.com/uk.

PAXTower mobile aluminium towers are light-weight scaffold 
towers used throughout the building and construction industry 
for both indoor and outdoor access solutions where a stable 
and secure platform is required. Ideal for maintenance and 
installation work or short-term access, the highly versatile 
towers provide a strong working platform for a variety of 
heights.

This instruction manual provides you with step by step 
instructions to ensure your system is erected easily and safely, 
using the 3T (Through The Trapdoor) method. The law requires 
that personnel erecting, dismantling or altering towers must 
be competent. Any person erecting a mobile tower must have 
a copy of this instruction manual. For further information 
on the use of mobile access and working towers consult the 
PASMA operators code of practice.

If you need further information, design advice, additional 
instruction manuals or any other help with this product,
