4. HOW TO USE
1. Place the lifting tower over a firm and flat
surface on its working place.
2. Remove the outriggers (H) from their
transport supports (C) and insert them into
their working positions (G) checking that
they are fixed by the safety pins (K). The lon-
gest ooutriggers must be placed at the front,
under the load.
3. Adjust the outrigger stabilisers (J) by tur-
ning the cranks (I) to level the lifting tower.
Ensure it is in a vertical position checking the
bubble level.
4. Place the forklifts (E) in a horizontal po-
sition and secure them with the safety pins.
5. Place the load as close to the lifting tower
as possible.
6. Elevation: Turn the winch handle (B) cloc-
kwise to lift the load until the wished posi-
tion, checking that the safety pins (A) are
activated (T).
7. To avoid lifting tower overloading, do not
separate uneccessarily the line array from the
body of the lift. See fig. 2 (page 15). Follow
loading instructions. See fig. 3 (page 15).
8. Lowering: release the safety pin (A) doing
the step U. To release them, turn slightly the
winch handle to elevate the load. In the nor-
mal working position, the load's weight does
not allow to release the safety pins. Once the
safety pin (A) is unblocked, turn the winch
handle (B) anticlockwise until the load is

lowered and the second profile is completely
down. Release the safety pins (A) and keep
on lowering the lifting tower until the third
profile is completely down. Unblock the sa-
fety pin (A) and continue lowering the lifting
tower until it is completely folded at its mini-
mum height.
9. For the lifting towers' transport it is neces-
sary to bring down all the profiles, releasing
the safety pin (A) doing the step U. Fix the
profiles with the safety pins (A) in the posi-
tion (S) and fix them with the transport sup-
port (F).
5. MAINTENANCE
1. Periodically check cable status. If the ca-
ble seems to have broken wires or crushing,
replace immediately with a new one. Never
use the lifting tower with cables in bad con-
ditions. Only use galvanized steel under EN
12385-4. Cable maximum load: 2.000kg. Ca-
ble torsion resistance: 1.770N/mm². Cable
diameter: 6mm. Cable composition: 6x19+1.
2. The lifting tower is supplied fully greased
from factory. Nevertheless, the crown gear of
the winch, to the threaded bar of the stabili-
ser outriggers and the profiles, because of its
use periodical greasing is recommended.
DO NOT GREASE OR LUBRICATE BRA-
KING MECHANISM
Braking disks were greased with a special
heat and pressure resistant grease. No other
product must be used to prevent negative in-
fluence on brake functioning.
3. Lifting tower AT-06, must be checked by
an expert a minimum of once a year as per
its use.
