FOREWORD
Read this instruction manual carefully before using the
mast climbing work platform. Take all the safety
precautions as described in chapter 3 into account.
FOREWORD
The mast climbing work platform is
provided with a rack and pinion drive.
The mast climbing work platform can be
quickly moved and is easy to transport.
The mast climbing work platform can be
freestanding or anchored.
The mast, which consists of separate
elements, can easily be adjusted in
height to match the height of the building
work. The mast is easy to assemble from
the platform.
The platform can be adjusted to the
shape of the façade.
The MS3000 mast climbing work platform
has a control system which makes it
possible to stop at any desired height.
Every care has been taken in the
construction of the mast climbing work
platform to ensure that all safety aspects
have been considered.
Depending on the application area, a
choice can be made from different
platform lengths, platform widths and
permissible loading.
This instruction manual describes only
the basic machine, in the standard form
supplied by HEK Manufacturing BV.

1.5 Anchor forces
Torque scaffold coupling: 50 Nm.
The anchor forces can be ascertained by referring to the following illustration and table.
Conditions:
a + b must be greater than or equal to L
a must be greater than or equal to 0
b must be greater than or equal to 0
The forces Al and Bl are calculated forces parallel to the facade.
The forces Ad and Bd are calculated forces perpendicular to the facade (these forces
may either be in tension or compression).
The forces Ap and Bp are the calculated forces in the anchor tubes.
