OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
Always use logic and common sense when using the tower. This is a complex product
designed for professional use and should not be operated by amateurs. Ensure all
personnel are correctly trained and instructed on the content of the manual and the
dangers related with operating the tower.
SET-UP
CAUTION! Check the work area for overhead obstructions or possible hazards before
use (signs cables, balconies, etc.). ALWAYS follow the set-up and working area and
tower use safety instructions in this manual.
Position the TORO tower at the desired work site.
1.- Pull the outriggers out of the back leg sockets and insert them
into the front sockets with the wheels downwards. Block them in
the position required, making sure they are fixed in place with the
magnetic locking pins.* Adjust the wheels with the Allen key
provided (found in the manual holder) until they touch the floor
and the back wheels are touching the floor, in the following way:
a) Unblock the spindle with the bolt found on the side of the leg.
b) Adjust the spindle until the wheel touches the floor.
c) Block the spindle again.

* The legs can be placed in the back of the tower to use it close to a wall. In this case the
counterweight holder must be installed on the legs securing it with the locking pins. Place 5
counterweights in the holder to raise the maximum safe working load specified in the load
table pg 14. IMPORTANT: The maximum permitted weight is calculated taking the furthest
point of the load as a reference.
2.- Unfold the side stabiliser legs, starting with the leg with the sliding bar that is closest to
the user (see pictures below).

3.- Make sure the TORO is properly levelled using the spirit level
as a reference. VERY IMPORTANT: At least 6 wheels must
always be in contact with the ground.
