Getting Started

Lock Indicator Buttons

The red and yellow buttons are used to show that the lock

mechanisms are engaged or not when erecting the Tower.

At all height settings, the yellow buttons should always be

in the locked position i.e. guard rails should be in place, see

page 8. At the 2 metre height setting, all

yellow and red buttons should be in their locked position.

The locking mechanism of a rung is situated at each end of

the rung immediately below it.

As a rung is lifted, it automatically locks to the frame when

it is in the correct position. When this happens an audible

‘click’ will be heard. At the same time the red or yellow buttons on the rung

immediately below the one being lifted will move to the locked position, see the

example shown right.

Red buttons

The red buttons on the rungs are used to release the locking mechanism during the

time the Tower is being collapsed. There is a red release-button located near

each end of the rungs labelled RUNG 4, RUNG 5, RUNG 6 and RUNG 7. When a

button is activated by sliding it away from the end of the rung, the locking pin at this

position is retracted which allows the rung immediately above (and any rungs and

or structures above this) to move downwards.

Yellow buttons

The yellow buttons act in the same way as the red buttons and are used during the

time the Tower is being collapsed. The yellow release-buttons are located at

each end of RUNG 2 and RUNG 3. These buttons allow the erected safety cage to

be collapsed.

Castors/Stabalisers

A stabiliser leg is an integral part of each castor. In addition to providing a larger

more stabilized foot print, the stabilisers are used to allow the Tower to be used on

an uneven surfaces.

The stabiliser can be rotated through 270 degrees.

It can be locked in one of ﬁve positions set at 45

degree intervals.

The castors and adjustable stabiliser legs are

supplied as a single item.

Getting Started

Fitting the castors

To ﬁt the castors carry out the following:

1. Carefully lay the fully collapsed main assembly (without platform) in a horizontal

position on the ﬂoor or on a bench.

2. Take a castor/stabiliser leg and slide the castor shaft into position on the main

assembly.

3. Push the red button on RUNG 9 away from the castor and push the castor shaft

fully in and rotate until the castor is adjacent to rung 9.

4. Release the button and if necessary rotate it a little further until you hear the

lock-pin click into place, which locks the stabiliser in this position.

5. Push down on the stabiliser release lever and lift the stabiliser foot until it is fully

retracted, and then release the lever. This will allow the stabiliser leg to be clear

of the ground when the main assembly is returned to its upright position.

6. Repeat for the other castors and return the Tower to its upright position.

Deploying the Ground Stabiliser Legs

The ground stabiliser legs should be deployed when the Tower has been fully

erected at the required platform height.

1. To move it into place, unlock the castors and push it to the working position.

2. Lock the castors by pushing down on the locking lever with your foot.

3. Slide the red button closest to the ground stabiliser towards the centre of

RUNG 9 and rotate the stabiliser until it is near the required position. Release the

button and rotate a little further either way until you hear the locking mechanism

click in.

4. Deploy a ground stabiliser foot by pressing down on the Adjuster until the foot is

in contact with the surface. Turn the adjuster to tighten it to be in good contact

with the ground. Repeat for the other ground stabilisers as required or allowed.

5. Check that the castors and ground stabiliser legs are secure and locked before

using the Tower.

Step 1: Erecting the Safety Cage

This procedure starts from when the Tower is in its fully collapsed arrangement,

with castors ﬁtted as in Figure 1.1.

1. Ensure the castors are unlocked and the wheels are free to rotate.

2. Release the two fabric straps fastened around the legs of the assembly that

hold the two frames together.

3. While keeping the frames together at the back,

push the front legs slightly apart as shown in

Figure 1.2.

4. Lift and withdraw the folded platform and put it

to one side.

5. Unfold the Tower and straighten the yellow gate

keeping the side frames parallel until the gate

locks. You will hear it click-lock. Check that the

gate is locked.

6. Swing the two side frames so they are each at

90 degrees to the gate and then lock the four

castors by using your foot to push the locking

lever down on all four castors.

Step 1: Erecting the Safety Cage

Lifting

1. Hold both ends of RUNG 1 (Figure 1.3) and place one foot on RUNG 9. Lift

RUNG 1 until it locks in place. A click will be heard when it locks and the yellow

buttons on RUNG 2 should then be in the locked position. This has lifted the

hand guardrail, see Figure 1.3.

2. Now hold both ends of RUNG 2. Place one foot on RUNG 9 and lift RUNG 2 until

it locks in place, Figure 1.4. This is indicated by the yellow but tons on RUNG 3

being in the locked position. This has lifted the hand and knee guard rails into

position, see Figure 1.4.

3. Repeat steps (1) and (2) on the opposite frame of the Tower.

Note. There is a pair of hand rails and a pair of knee-rails on the left and right

frames of the Tower. The lower part of each pair comprises a side rail, RUNG 1 and

RUNG 2 (xed), and the upper parts, adjustable hand-rail and adjustable knee-rail

(movable). The latter is the front rail or the rear rail (rear on the left frame, front on

the right frame).

Step 1: Erecting the Safety Cage

Front and Rear Rails

1. Hold the yellow cover on the end of an upper handrail using your thumb and

ﬁngers, and push it towards the end of the rail. Hold it in this position while you

lift the end to unfasten it from its anchor point, see Figure 1.5.

2. Rotate the anchor point through 90 degrees to face the opposite side frames,

see Figure 1.6.

3. Rotate the rail end towards the opposite frame.

4. Extend the rail until you hear two clicks. This tells you that the 3-part rail has been

securely locked in its extended position. Carefully let the rail hang down from the

attached end.

Note. You should be able to see the ball-bearings from the locking mechanism

protruding from the side walls of the rail.

5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 for the other guardrails.

6. Lift one of the extended rails above its new anchor point on the opposite frame

and push down to lock in place.

7. Repeat for the other three rails to complete the erection of the Safety Cage,

Figure 1.7.

8. The Safety Cage can remain ‘built’ until the Tower is collapsed.
