DISASSEMBLING THE PLATFORM SYSTEM
1. To remove the drapery from a backdrop:
a. “Peel” the drapery away from the crossbar.
b. Fold the drapery carefully to minimize
wrinkling in storage.
An optional carrying case can be purchased
from Wenger to store the drapery.
c. Press the release button on each upright,
and lift the backdrop support from the guard rail.
2. Remove any stairways by lifting the outer end
(lowest step) until the hook tube assembly is
free of the stage.
3. Remove any drapery enclosures by reversing
the installation procedure. See “Installing
Drapery Enclusures” on page 10.
Don’t remove the clips from the drapery
unless they have to be relocated. Keeping
the clips on the drapery prevents lossing
them and eliminates the need to store separately.
If the clips remain attached to the platform
frame they will interfere with storage of the
platform units.
Carefully fold the drapery to minimize wrinkling. Special drapery hangers are available from Wenger.
4. Remove any guard rails by unscrewing the handles. Store the guard rails on the (optional) guard rail
storage cart.
5. Remove all closure panels.
6. Remove all chair stops.
IMPORTANT: Two people are recommended for the following step.
7. Release the unit-to-unit clamps on the underside of adjacent same-height platforms.
See “Connecting Same-Height Platforms” on page 8.
8. Pull the first platform section away from the stage or riser and place near the storage cart.
Tilt the section onto the cart.
9. Return the legs to their shorter position (if extended on dual-height models).
10. To fold the legs:
a. On each leg brace, slide the brace lock away from the deck,
and use the heel of your other hand to unlock the brace.
b. Fold the legs against the deck.
11. Be sure the platform units are positioned securely on
the cart:
a. On 12-Unit Carts, slide the end of the platform units
all the way into the guides on the handle end.
b. On 6- or 8-Unit Carts, secure each platform unit
with the unit lock.
c. On 3-Unit Carts, the platform units rest against the
diagonal brace.
10. Repeat steps 8 through 11 for the remaining sections.
