If assembly work must be interrupted, this must be done in such a way that, when the
work is restarted it is clear what stage had been reached when work was stopped. For
this reason always complete a part of the assembly, for example, assemble collect or
secure all the components for a connection, complete a ground support or completely
assemble an anchor before stopping work.
While the mast is being erected, no more than two persons may be on the platform, so
that no more than 75% of the lifting capacity is used.
The assembly must always be followed by a test run, as described in section 7.3. Until
the test has been performed, the platform may not be used for any purpose other than
transporting its own mast elements and anchoring components.
The loading of the mast climbing work platform must be planned so that when, in the
assembly situation, the maximum distance between anchors is reached, the material
load on the platform is a minimum.
