Product Manual A

Procedure “B”

This procedure requires two or preferably three men.

1. Place track section assembly perpendicular to the building with the

bottom shoes of the steel bottom section resting against the building to

prevent slipping.

2. Tie a rope to the top bracket and have the man on the roof pull up the

hoist while the other man on the ground braces the shoes on the steel

bottom base section to prevent slippage of the hoist shoes. The third

man on the ground may aid in erecting by “walking” the hoist up hand

over hand by the rungs.

3. When the hoist reaches a vertical position, carefully turn the hoist 180

degrees with the platform pointing away from the building.

4. Move the bottom of the hoist away from the building 1/4 of the height of

the building where the top of the hoist is to be supported. Angle of track

sections from building should be between 18 and 20 degrees. Make

allowances for an overhang. See page 13 for track section chart for

approximate distances of the base from the building.

5. Tie the track section to the roof with a rope fastened to a cross tie on

the top bracket to prevent slippage of the track section. See below.

DO NOT TIE ROPE TO THE RAILS - THIS WILL PREVENT THE

PLATFORM FROM OPERATING PROPERLY.

6. Make certain the shoes on the steel bottom section are ﬁrmly resting

on level ground. This will help to prevent track section slippage or

uneven loading of the track section which could cause damage or

injury to personnel and/or to equipment.
