    Read this instruction manual carefully. Note that diagrams are for illustrative purposes only. Instruction manuals are also available to download from our website at zarges.com/uk. PAXTower mobile aluminium towers are light-weight scaffold towers used throughout the building and construction industry for both indoor and outdoor access solutions where a stable and secure platform is required.
  • Page 4: Safe Use

    2 Safe use • Check that all components are onsite, undamaged and that they are functioning correctly - (refer to Quantity Schedules, page 12). Damaged or incorrect components should not be used. • Check if the ground on which the mobile access tower is to be erected and moved is capable of supporting the tower.
  • Page 5: During Use

    • No person or materials should be on the tower during movement. • Caution should be exercised when wheeling a tower over rough, uneven or sloping ground, taking care to unlock and lock castors. If stabilisers are fitted, they should only be lift- ed a maximum of 25 mm above the ground to clear ground obstructions.
  • Page 6: Maintenance - Storage - Transport

    • Do not use boxes or stepladders or other objects on the platform to gain extra height. • After assembly the tower should be regularly inspected by a competent person to ensure that no environmental changes have occurred that may affect safe use. 2.5 Maintenance - storage - transport •...
