OVERVIEW
Take time now and review the entire assembly manual. A few minutes now could save hours later during assembly.
Check BOM against parts shipped and report any shortages now before assembly starts. Foundation is critical for the structural integrity of the tower. Be sure to follow foundation design. A local
engineering firm should review site, soil conditions and foundation design before work is started. Local codes may require the design stamped by a licensed engineer .
Depending on your work environment, these instructions may need to be altered to best fit your needs. Assemble tower on a level horizontal surface. Block up column sections high enough to be able to place
horizontal angles under columns and attach with hardware provided. Note: V ertical “X” bracing must be placed between column and H-Brace. Internal X-Bracing is used at every 5’ of vertical height. Bracing attaches to the H-Braces.
Attach column splice plates to outside of columns using 1/2" hardware provided. Use splice on both outside surfaces.
One style of assembly is to build 2 sides laying approximately 48" apart. Rotating sides up attach horizontal bracing for proper spacing between sides. Keep sections small enough to handle easily. Slide section ends together and splice together.
Once all sections have been assembled, align and string columns for straitness. Tighten all hard­ware, columns must be straight!!!
Layout parts for ladder package & service platform. With tower assembly complete & hardware tightened proceed with attaching service platform & ladder sections. Refer to page 33 that shows general layout of ladder, safety cage, & plat form. Use the layout that corresponds to the height of tower. Any tower over 30' must use offset platform included with ladder package. Before starting ladder assembly give some consid­eration on how to raise tower and attachments to provide safe setting of tower. Some floor planks may need to be left out until tower is stood in place.
Assemble service platform and attach to top of tower. Place opening of service platform on side of tower that will have ladder. This will align ladder placement. Attach ladder from service platform towards bottom of tower. Be sure and use the 10’ ladder access weldment in conjunction with the service platform. Follow the general layout using the proper ladder section as you proceed. Offset platform is used only on towers over 30’ tall. Follow details for offset platform for proper attachment.

SAFETY
This equipment shall be installed in accordance with the current installation codes and applicable regula­tions which should be carefully followed in all cases. Authorities having jurisdiction should be consulted before installations are made.
PREPARE FOR EMERGENCIES
Be prepared if fire starts. Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy . Keep emergency numbers for doctors, ambu-
lance service, hospital, and fire department near your telephone.
WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
Keep Emergency Equipment Quickly Accessible.
Wear close fitting clothing and safety equipment appropriate to the job.
Safety glasses should be worn at all times to protect eyes from debris.
Wear gloves to protect your hands from sharp edges on plastic or steel parts.
A respirator may be needed to prevent breathing potentially toxic fumes and dust.
Wear hard hat and steel toe boots to help protect your head and toes from falling debris.
Remove all jewelry . Tuck in any loose or dangling shoe strings. Long hair should be tied up and back.
