•  Heights greater than 125' must

be certified by a registered 

Professional Engineer.

•  Platforms rated capacity =

2,000 lbs. / tower. (Capacity

includes men, tools and ma-

terials.) (An allowance of 4.2

lbs. / foot has been made for

boards.)

•  Structural capacity based on a

4 to 1 safety factor.

•  Cable capacity based on a 6 to

1 safety factor.

•  Maximum free standing height equals 3

times the smallest base dimension.

•  When height exceeds 3 times the small-

est base dimension, scaffold must be

restrained from tipping by factory approved

methods (see above diagram).

•  Horizontal bracing is required in open bay

every 21' of height (see above diagram).

•  For heights that require more than 9 towers

(63'), consult factory for additional diagonal

and horizontal bracing instruction.

•  Before raising the platform, ensure towers

are plumb.

•  Before raising, ensure the following:

 1.  The cable is free of any defects such

as kinks, broken strands, flat spots, or any 

other defect that could reduce strength.

2. Winch is securely attached to carriage with four connecting bolts.

3. The safety dog is present and operable.

4. The pinning device is present and operable.

5. Tender platform is pinned to carriage at each tower; retainer bolt is present on mason

platform.

•  Install all guard rails, end guards, and toeboards prior to use.

•  When "jumping" cable, the only approved method of blocking the load is with pinning device

located on carriage.

•  After the cable has been placed in service and is under tension, the nuts on the 3 wire rope

clips attached to the cathead unit should be tightened to compensate for any decrease in

rope diameter caused by loading. This should be done before each use and after the initial

load has been applied.
