Working at heights during assembly considerations: Equiptec AHPs were designed to take the place of other more traditional devices for working at heights. For the most part , your AHP should be able to be assembled from ground level. However, depending on what accessory you are fitting, or the particular situation you are in, there may be a need to work at height during the assembly procedure.
