S:
Do not use this equipment if you are in poor health, taking medications, drugs, or drinking
alcoholic beverages, all of which may impair your ability to work safely on this product.
Do not mix platforms, casters, trusses, end frame access ladders or other components from
other manufacturers with FramePro scaffolding. Component dimensions differ enough to be
hazardous when mixed. Use only authorized FramePro parts and components. Discard the
scaffold if it has been exposed to fire or corrosive chemical.
Do not overreach. Keep your body within the boundaries of the guardrail and scaffold section.
Do not stand on guardrail or use any components of the guardrail to gain additional standing
height.
Do not place ladders, chairs, boxes or any other such object or device on the platform to gain
additional standing height.
Do not try to pull or “scoot” yourself from one location to another while standing on platform.
Climb down from the platform to the floor. Mount and dismount the platform from the top
center of the End Frame Access Ladder. Do not swing around the side of the ladder. Unlock the
casters and move the scaffold in a safe manner. Relock the casters before climbing to the
working platform. For easier locking and unlocking of the casters, turn the brake levers
outward.
Do not subject the FramePro scaffold to any side-load forces or impacts.
Do not place a FramePro on the deck of a scissor-lift or any other type of access equipment in
order to gain additional standing height.
Do not
use near electrical circuits. This metal equipment is conductive. Serious injury or death
could result.
Guardrails must be used at working platform heights of 6 ft. or higher. (Refer to OSHA 1910.28,
1910.29, and ANSI A10.8) Check with state and local codes and regulations for variance from
federal standards.
All lock pins must be engaged before using scaffold. Lock nut screws onto threaded nipple after
scaffold assembly and platform height adjustment. DO NOT HAMMER LOCK PINS. If locks stick,
clean and grease lightly. Move back and forth to free movement.

Assembly of The FramePro 6’ Multifunction Scaffold
1. Invert an End Frame Access Ladder. Insert the casters into the ladder leg bushings,
pressing the casters into the bushing by hand until the hole in the caster stem lines up
with the hole in the scaffold ladder. Secure the casters using the provided clevis pins.
Repeat this process for the second End Frame Access Ladder.
2. Turn the End Frame Access Ladder over so that it rests on its casters. Holding an End
Frame Ladder with one hand, engage one truss to the ladder leg. Secure the truss by
using the provided clevis pin.
3. Hold the second End Frame Access Ladder with one hand. Repeat Step 2 to attach the
other end of the truss to the second End Frame Access Ladder.
4. Attach the second truss to the partially assembled scaffold. Make sure both truss are
the same height and parallel to the floor. Secure the truss by using the provided clevis
pins.
5. Set the scaffold upright. Make sure the brakes on the casters are set.
6. Complete the assembly by laying the platform in place, resting it securely within the
platform ledges of each truss channel. No metal platform should be visible above the
vertical lip of the truss channel. Make sure the platform ledges on the truss channel are
thoroughly cleaned and free for debris that would prevent the platform from seating
properly into the trusses.
Assembly of the Guardrails
Note: Guardrails shall be used at working platform heights of 6 feet or higher. (OSHA 1910.28,
1910.29 and ANSI Z359.1-2007) Check with state and local codes or private company directives
for variances with may be more restrictive than federal coders.
1. Take the Fixed End of the Guardrail and attach one Truss securing it with the provided
Clevis Pin.
2. Take the other Truss and attach it to the other side of the Fixed End of the Guardrail
securing it with the provided Clevis Pin.
3. Repeat this process with the Access Point End of the Guardrail.
4. Install guardrail by inserting four corner pegs in their corresponding receivers on the
scaffold. Secure each peg with the provided Clevis Pins.
