GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION
The Ladder Access System was designed for ladders meeting the current NFPA 1931 standard. Systems
accommodate most ladder combinations. However, for ladders over 35 feet or with tormentor poles, contact
Ziamatic Corp. to ascertain if they may be used with an Access System. Combinations (see page 18) 36, 44, 53,
63, 72, 80, 126, 128, 129, 130, 132, 133, 144, 152, 154, 157, 158, and 159 require ladder mounts in excess of
12 inches. Some of these combinations may be accommodated by adding spacers behind the ladder mount and
retainer handle support, but this increases the mounting depth and the ladders may protrude excessively beyond
the side of the vehicle. We do not recommend mounting of these ladders.
Note: The weight of ladders and/or hard sleeves may not exceed 300 pounds with any of the Lad-
der Access Systems. We recommend the manual or electric locking systems (see pages 33 through 38) be
used whenever a hard sleeve tray is mounted over the LAS or HSS System or apparatus routinely navi-
gates rough/uneven terrain.
A. Mounting Points
The Ladder Access devices should be placed symetrically in reference to the ladder. The same
number of rungs should extend past each ladder support (page 23). This will ensure that both units are
lifting approximately the same weight (if this is not possible, contact Ziamatic Corp.). Bolt holes have
been provided on both the vertical and horizontal mounting surfaces. Although the device may be
securely mounted from the horizontal surface only, it is a great advantage to be able to use mounting
bolts on the vertical surface as well. One-half inch thick backing plates should be used if using only
vertical or horizontal hole sets for mounting (see Section V.A., last paragraph). Bulk Head Mount units
must have backing plates and can only be mounted to a vertical surface.
All bolts should have reinforcement structure added underneath the mounting surface where
possible. Channel or rectangular tube should be used instead of flat plate as reinforcement. If
aluminum plate is used, it should be 1/2" thick (see page 21).
B. Electrical Circuit
The control switch should be a momentary double-pole double-throw exterior 30 amp switch. We
provide a switch with each system. It should be placed in such a position that the operator has full view
of the QUIC-LIFT System and personnel that might come in contact with it. Using wires of equal
length between power source and actuators will help to keep the actuators running in synchronization
(see page 22 for wiring diagrams).
