SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Checking before assembly Check whether the people assembling the stair tower are suitably qualified and check if the location where the stair tower is to be erected is safe and suitable. Note: - The surface must be flat and sufficiently strong. - The area must be free from obstructions, both at ground level and above the ground.
Outriggers/elbow outriggers The outriggers/elbow outriggers stated in the assembly tables must always be fitted as soon as the bottom section of the stair tower reaches a height of 2 metres. The basic shape to be used, i.e. the outrigger/elbow outrigger to be used (small or large), can be found in the assembly tables.
