4.3 Attaching ballast to the mobile scaffold tower

Mobile scaffold towers have to be weighed down by placing ballast weights on top of the base rails to ensure the tower's
stability. Please refer to the corresponding table in the table section starting on page 130 for the number of ballast weights
to be used, which depends on the height of the mobile scaffold tower.

4.4 After assembly or modification of the mobile scaffold tower's configuration

The tower has to be fitted with a sign that is visible from the ground and contains the following minimum information:
– Name and contact details of the person in charge of the site
– Whether or not the mobile scaffold tower is ready for use or not
– The load class and maximum distributed load
– Whether the mobile scaffold tower is only designed for use in closed indoor spaces
– The date the tower was erected

5. Disassembling the mobile scaffold tower

The mobile scaffold tower has to be disassembled in reverse order of the relevant assembly instructions.

6. Inspection, care and maintenance

All of the tower's parts must be checked for damage before setting it up and any damaged parts must be replaced.
Damaged parts must only be repaired by the manufacturer. Only use original spare parts.
Visually inspect the tower to make sure that all of the welds and other materials are free from cracks, and that none of the
parts are bent or dented. Make sure that parts such as locks, spindles, castors etc. are in proper working order.
The following components always have to be checked every time before assembling the tower:
– Vertical frame and base sections with castors: check for deformations, dents and cracks
– Diagonal braces and guardrails: check for deformation, dents, cracks and whether the locks work
– Working platforms: check for deformation, dents, cracks and whether the locks work
– Hatch: make sure hatch works
– Toe boards: condition of wood, cracks
– Swivel castors: castors' ease of movement and brakes' effectiveness in stopping the castors from rolling and
rotating.
– In adjustable castors, check the spindles' ease of movement. Check safety locks (locking pins, wing screws) on the
vertical frame and base sections with castors
– Retainers: check for deformation, dents, cracks and secure fit
– The tower's components have to be stored in such a way that they cannot become damaged.
– The individual parts have to be stored lying down and protected from weather.
– Components have to be positioned and protected in such a way during transport that they cannot become damaged.
– The tower components can be cleaned using water and conventional cleaning agents. Any paints spilled on the
components can be removed with white spirit.
