BEFORE YOU START PREPARATION The floor area must be clear of any obstructions including materials and debris. Check that you have all the components necessary to construct the tower height you require. Check also each component for condition and correct function. If any part is missing or damaged/not working correctly it must be replaced before assembling the tower.
GETTING STARTED GETTING STARTED MiTOWER+ requires only one person to assemble and dismantle it. Your MiTOWER+ is supplied with uniform 1m high 4 rung frames which can be used at any stage of the assembly. During erection, the frames may be connected together to create 2m high frames which makes assembly both quicker and easier.
MI TOWER+ 2m - ASSEMBLY STEP 1 FROM TROLLEY For ease of storage and transportation your MiTOWER+ is designed so that all the components can be safely stored within the tower’s base. Start by removing the free-standing components from within the trolley and stack safely nearby for use.
