4. HOW TO USE

1. Place the lifting tower over a firm and flat
surface on its working place.
2. Remove the outriggers (H) from their
transport supports (C) and insert them into
their working positions (G) checking that
they are fixed by the safety pins (K). The lon-
gest outriggers must be placed at the front,
under the load.
3. Remove the front support bars (O) from
its transport support (D) and place them in
its anchoring support (P) on each front ou-
trigger, ensuring that they are fixed with the
safety pins (M & N).
In order to fix properly the front support bars
(O), adjust the support of the front outrigger
by turning the stabiliser crank. Insert safety
pins (M & N).
4. Adjust the outrigger stabilisers (J) by tur-
ning the cranks (I) to level the lifting tower.
Ensure it is in a vertical position checking the
bubble level.
5. Place the forklifts (E) in a horizontal po-
sition and secure them with the safety pins.
6. Place the load as close to the lifting tower
as possible.
7. Place on the forklifts (E) the supports AC-
584 and AC-585 in case of flying a line array
system with central anchoring by either one
or two hanging points. See fig. 4 (page 17).
If the line array's bumper has four hanging
points, use the supports AC-582 and AC-583
which enables to fly the line array system
from four hanging points. See fig. 5 (page 17).

8. Elevation: Turn the winch handle (B) cloc-
kwise to lift the load until the wished posi-
tion, checking that safety pins (A) are activa-
ted (T).
9. When erecting the lifting tower outdoors,
the risk of wind is prevalent. When wind
speed exceeds 30km/h, it is mandatory to
bring down the lifting tower, for which we
have provided two fixing side rings (L) in the
upper part of the second profile, where ten-
sors should be attached and fixed on a secure
and firm surface. (Never on a vehicle or an-
ything that can move).
10. To avoid lifting tower overloading, do not
separate uneccessarily the line array from the
body of the lift. See fig. 2 (page 17). Follow
loading instructions. See fig. 3 (page 17).
11. Lowering: release the safety pins (A)
doing the step U. To release them, turn
slightly the winch handle to elevate the load.
In the normal working position, the load's
weight does not allow to release the safety
pins. Once the safety pin (A) is unblocked,
turn the winch handle (B) anticlockwise un-
til lowering the load and the second profile is
completely down. Release the safety pins (A)
and keep on lowering the lifting tower until
the third profile is completely down. Unblock
the safety pin (A) and continue lowering the
lifting tower until it is completely folded as its
minimum height.
12. For the lifting towers' transport, it is ne-
cessary to bring down all the profiles unless
the carriage (β), releasing the safety pin (A)
doing the step U. Block all profiles with the
safety pins (A) in position (S). Put the forklifts
(E) in its initial position. Move the front sup-
port bars (O) from its anchoring support (P)
and fix them to its transport support (D) fi-
xing it with the safety pins (M & N).
