HOW TO UNNBLOCK THE MAST PROFILES IF THE SAFETY BRAKE (IPB System) HAS BEEN ACTIVATED.
If it is activated due to a kink in the cable or sagging, raise the tower by turning the winch handle clockwise, this way the cable
will become tensed again and the safety brake will deactivate automatically, so you can continue too use the tower.
Our towers are fitted with a special deactivation system for when the IPB system is activated due to cable breakage, this system is
called the MSU System. Unblock the tower using the following instructions:
1.- Firstly the load, where possible, must be removed from the tower.
2.- The profile closest to the base must lifted using a forklift truck or another ECI tower,
pushing it up from underneath to unblock the safety brake and then completely lower the
profile. If the safety brake stays blocked when this has been done, it must be unblocked
using the MSU lever system; lift up each profile and then use the lever to unblock them.
3.- Continue to lower the tower, profile by profile in the same way.
AFTER EACH USE
1.- Completely lower the fork carriage and remove any adaptors.
2.- Ensure the forks are in the storage position (vertical position).
3.- Fold the side stabiliser legs. To fold the side stabiliser legs into the vertical, folded
position, press the levers at the back of the tower, see the picture.
NOTE: If the legs won't fold, adjust the front legs with the adjustable wheels until
they can be folded.
4.- Remove the front legs and store them in the back sockets in the wheels up position
as per the picture.
IMPORTANT: Replace the profile safety hook to stop the profiles from moving during
horizontal transportation.
5.- Select a safe storage location making sure it is: on a firm and level surface,
protected from the elements, clear of obstructions and passage.
