SAFETY
• The use of a safety harness is not required when erecting or dismantling
the scaold.
• Check that all components are on site and that they are functioning
correctly – see Scaold Quantity Schedule (page 12).
• Check if the ground on which the scaold is to be erected and moved
upon is level and capable of supporting the Mobile Scaold unit. To
support uneven surfaces, use 6” adjustable scaold wheels (available for
purchase).
• The quantity of platforms restricts the safe working load of the scaold.
The safe load per platform is 230kg. A maximum load of 460kg is
permitted over two platforms at full height including your own weight.
STABILISERS
• Stabilisers should always be tted when the specied. The ground for
laying the scaold must be solid (i.e. not water or loose sand) and should
not be positioned to overload individual legs.
• Adjustable stabilisers should only be used for levelling.
To meet NZ Health & Safety guidelines where the platform height is at
1.9m or above, stabilisers and toe boards must be used.
MOVEMENT
• The scaold should only be moved from the base using manual eort.
• When moving your scaold, beware of any overhead obstructions
including live cables or moving parts of machinery.
• No personnel or materials should be on the scaolding during movement.
• Caution should be exercised when wheeling scaolding over rough,
uneven or sloping ground, taking care to unlock and lock castors. If
stabilisers are tted, they should only be lifted suciently above the
ground to avoid hitting obstructions.
• The height of the scaolding when being moved should not exceed 4.0m.
