8. Assembling the MiTOWER STAIRS
Assemble the components on the basis of the steps that are shown in appendix T7. Make all connections as indicated in
appendix T2. See the table below for reference to the appendix with the configuration table and composition per type of
rolling tower.

Step 1 (T7:1)
1. Start with a 4-rung frame (T1: A) and a walk-through frame (T1: H).
2. Install wheel legs with feet (T1: J) in the frames [T2: F16-F18].
3. Install 2x double guardrail braces (T1: C) between the 2 frames with the lower claw above the 1st rung of the 4-rung frame [T2: F3].
4. Only with MiTower Plus Stairs: install 2x a diagonal brace (T1: K).
5. Level out the base section using a spirit level. If necessarry, adjust the wheel legs by srewing the wheel leg nut up or down.
6. If the top of both frames cannot be levelled out with the adjustable wheel legs, a 2-rung frame (T1: I) can be used to accommodate the
difference.
7. Check the position of the four feet on the staircase. [T2: F19-F20]. Warning: do not continue the assembly if the base section is not level and/
or the four feet cannot be positioned correctly on the staircas.
Step 2 (T7:2)
1. Place a 4-rung frame on both frames of the base section (T1: A) and secure [T2: F4 – F6].
2. Install the triangular stabilisers (T1: E); [T2: F11-F15]. Check that all stabilisers make good contact with the ground. Adjust the stabilizers if
necessary.
3. If it is not possible to install the stabilizers in the correct angle [F2: F22-F27], install 2 anchoring tubes (T1:L) while still standing on the ground:
- On the walk-through frame side: install an anchoring tube on the upper rung of the walk-through frame and anchor it to the wall [T2: F28]
- Other side of tower: install an anchoring tube on the 7th rung and anchor it to the wall [T2: F28]"
4. If possible, install 2x lashing straps (T1: M) in the lower part of the scaffolding [T2: F21]. Only install lashing straps to a sturdy construction
such as a step of an open staircase.
5. Place a platform (T1: D) on the 4th rung of the base section [T2: F7 – F9].
6. Slide out the platform's hanging mechanism [T2: F10] and hang 2x a double guardrail brace here.
7. Climb through the hatch and sit on the platform with your legs through the hatch.
8. Mount 2x a double guardrail brace (T1: C) with the upper claw on top of the 4th rung of the frames [T2: F3].
Step 3 (T7:3)
1. Climb down and on the platform's hanging mechanism hang: 2x a linked frame (T1:A), [T2:F4], a platform (T1:D) and a double guardrail
brace (T1:C).
2. Access the platform, install the linked frames and secure them (F2: F5-F6].
3. Install a double guardrail brace with the upper claws under the 4th rung of the frames that have just been installed [T2: F3].
4. Place a platform (T1: D) on the 4th rung of the frames you have just installed (T2: F7-F9].
Step 4 (T7:4)
1. Climb down and on the platform's hanging mechanism hang: 2x a double guardrail brace (T1:C) and (only if the required working height has been
reached) a toe board set (T1:F).
2. Climb through the hatch and sit on the platform with your legs through the hatch.
3. Mount 2x a double guardrail brace (T1: C) with the upper claw on top of the 4th rung of the frames [T2: F3].
4. Only once the required working height has been reached: install the toe board set (T1:F).
5. For higher working heights, repeat steps 3 and 4.
9. Ballast
Ballast is not required for indoor and outdoor usage up to a maximum wind speed of 7.9 m/s (max. 4 Beaufort*). Please
contact Altrex with regard to use in higher wind speeds.
10. Moving the rolling tower
The rolling tower may only be moved while observing the following conditions:
1. Before moving the rolling tower, the height has to be reduced to a maximum of 6.2 metres.
2. When the rolling tower is moved, persons and/or materials may not remain on the rolling tower.
3. Beforehand, checks should be made that the environmental factors, such as swinging doors, canopies, pits,
automatically functioning awnings, aboveground electrical cables, traffic and/or passers-by, etc. do not lead to dangerous
situations while the rolling tower is moved.
4. In order to move the rolling tower, the stabilisers can only be raised to a maximum of 3 cm.
5. Only move the rolling tower manually in a lengthways direction, over a flat, horizontal and sufficiently load-bearing surface.
6. After moving the rolling tower has to be realigned horizontally using a spirit level.
7. Do not move the mobile access tower if the wind speed exceed 7.9 m/s (max. 4 Beaufort*).
11. Disassembly of the rolling tower
The rolling tower should be disassembled following the instructions for assembly but in reverse order.
