3. Safety instructions (T1.1 - T1.13)
1. It is important to determine the required working height in advance and to select the correct rolling tower/rolling tower configuration for this.
2. The location of the rolling tower must be checked to prevent accidents during assembly, dismantling and moving with respect to:
a. A horizontal, flat and solid base;
b. The location must be free of obstacles;
c. Weather and wind conditions
d. Electricity cables (above ground)
3. The scaffold must not be out of the perpendicular in excess of 1%. So at a height of 4 meters, the deflection can be max. 4 cm. Check this with a spirit level.
4. The use of hoisting gear on or attached to the scaffold is not permitted; this can seriously affect the stability of the tower. Scaffold parts, tools and materials may
only be brought up and down (to and from the work floor) manually using a rope, for example
5. Check all parts for damage. Damaged or incorrect parts may not be used.
6. Only original Würth parts, as described in this manual, may be used. The mixing of scaffolding components of different brands/manufacturers is not permitted
because no strength and stability calculation has been carried out on the relevant mix configuration.
7. Never make constructive adjustments to the scaffolding.
8. The standard configurations in this manual are not calculated on the use of tarpaulins and/or advertising boards.
9. Never leave the rolling tower unsupervised. If the rolling tower must be left unsupervised, you have to make sure that unauthorised individuals cannot access it.
Anchor the tower with 2 anchorage tubes (0962 940 736) if there is a change that wind speed might exceed 4 Beaufort during the unsupervised period of
time.
10. Particular attention should be paid to using scaffolds when there is wind:
- Maximum wind load: see chapter 2
- Take gusts of wind into account
- Take wind-sensitive areas into account, e.g. near open constructions/structures and at the corner of a building
If the above cannot be guaranteed, the scaffolding must be moved to a wind-free location or dismantled.
11. Lateral loads exceeding 30 kg resulting from work activities on the scaffold are not permitted. In the event of significantly larger forces, the scaffold should be
anchored to the façade at 2 points every 4 metres. Each anchor point should be able to resist a load of 120 kg.
12. Never access the tower on the outside and never stand on the braces.
13. Triangle stabilisers and ballast must always be attached according to the configuration & ballast table.
14. The hoisting, hanging or lifting of the scaffold is not authorised.
15. It is not permitted to increase the height of a platform e.g. with ladders, stepladders, boxes or any other object.
16. Scaffolding in accordance with EN1004-1 is not designed for use as an anchor point for personal fall protection.
17. Scaffolding in accordance with EN1004-1 is not designed for use as an access or exit to other structures or buildings.
18. Scaffolding in accordance with EN1004-1 is not designed for use as roof edge protection.
19. The distance between 2 platforms is not more than 2.25 m. An exception is the distance to the first platform with 3.40 m.
20. Electrical danger. Assess all electrical hazards in the work area, such as conduits and other electrical equipment. Do not use the scaffolding where there is an
electrical hazard.
21. Note that only one platform level may be used as a working platform. This platform must be equipped with a hip rest, knee rest and toe board.
22. Do not use the scaffolding if it is contaminated with, for example, paint, mud, oil, chemicals or snow.
23. Do not use the scaffolding if you are not fit enough. Certain medical conditions or medication, alcohol and drug use may make it unsafe to use the scaffolding.
4. Parts
See Annex T2 for an overview of the parts and their mass.
5. Mounting instructions
See Annex T3 for an overview of the mounting instructions.
6. Assembly
• Check that all parts, necessary tools and safety aids are present (e.g. helmet, gloves, safety shoes).
• Required tools:
- Rope
- Spirit level
• Assemble the components following the steps shown in appendix T4 and T5
• Make all the connections as shown in Annex T3
• See the table below for the reference to the annex with the configuration table and configurations per type of rolling tower

Building even working heights
- Würth TOWER
- Würth TOWER+ 6 m
Step 1 (T4:1)
1. Start with two frames (T2: A). Install the wheels (T2: B) in the
frames and apply the brake [T3: F1-F2].
2. Install a double guardrail brace (T2: C) with the upper claw on top
of the 4th rung [T3: F3].
3. Level out the base section using a spirit level. If necessary, adjust the wheel legs by
screwing the wheel leg nut up or down.
Step 2 (T4:2)
1. Place two frames (T2: A) on top of one another and secure
[T3: F4-F6]. Repeat this step. Place these linked frames on the
base section and secure [T3: F5-F6].
2. Install a double guardrail brace (T2: C) with the upper claw below
the 8th rung [T3: F3].
3. Place a platform (T2: D) on the 8th rung [T3: F7-F8].
4. Install the triangular stabilisers (T2: E); [T3: F11-F15]. Check if all
stabilisers make good contact with the ground. Adjust the
stabilizers if necessary.
5. Slide out the platform's hanging mechanism [T3: F10] and hang 2x
a double guardrail brace here.
6. Climb through the hatch and sit on the platform with your legs
through the hatch.
7. Mount 2x a double guardrail brace (T2: C) with the upper claw on
top of the 4th rung of the frames [T3: F3].
Step 3 (T4:3 / T5:3)
1. Climb down and on the platform's hanging mechanism hang: 2x a linked frame (T2:A), [T3:F4], a platform (T2:D) and a double guardrail
brace (T2: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 [T3: F3]
4. Place a platform on the 4th rung of the frames you have just installed [T3: F7-F8]
Step 4 (T4:4 / T5:3)
1. Climb down and on the platform's hanging mechanism hang: 2x a double guardrail brace (T2:C) and (only if the required working height has
been reached) a toe board set (T2:F).
2. Climb through the hatch and sit on the platform with your legs through the hatch.
3. Mount 2x a double guardrail brace (T2: C) with the upper claw on top of the 4th rung of the frames [T3: F3].
4. Only once the required working height has been reached: install the toe board set (T2:F).
5. For higher working heights, repeat steps 3 and 4.
