The stand is available in two configurations. The roller configuration (T55580/T55590)

features a 4 castor base plate, with removable legs which slot into the base plate when

the stand is in use. When the stand is not in use the legs can be removed and slotted

into their transport position parallel to the main body of the stand (figure 4).

The turnbuckle base (T55582/T55592) comprises of a flat base plate with all four legs

permanently attached. The legs rotate outwards from their transport position until they

contact the ground, and retract into their transport position (figure 5). There are two

transport wheels fitted to the reverse side of the stand base as illustrated, to aid

transportation.

Safety Precautions

The Zenith stands provide easy and smooth lifting and lowering. The user must

determine if the product has the necessary characteristics to fulfil the required

application.

Excluded applications:

• Not tested for construction hoists

• Not approved for lifting persons

• Not approved for motorised use

Automatic mechanical brake: The TÜV approved winch used on these stands is fitted

with an automatic brake. The minimum load as marked on the stand should be met to

ensure the brake performs correctly. For any matters relating to the winch, please refer

to the winch operating instructions supplied.

Note: Do not apply oil or grease to the brake mechanism. The brake washers are pre-

greased with pressure resistant grease.

Before loading, the stand must be placed on a suitably firm and level surface, with the

stabiliser legs in place and in firm contact with the ground. Confirm that the mast section

of the stand is vertical prior to use. A spirit level is located on the baseplate of the

turnbuckle stand to assist.

The cable should be visually inspected at all accessible points for frays, cuts or kinks

before the stand is used. If any defects are found then the stand should be removed

from service until a suitable repair can be made. Do not attempt to use the stand with a

damaged cable. Do not shorten the cable at the winch connection.

The winch handle must not be removed from the stand while a load is fitted, as this will

disengage the brake and allow the load to drop. The minimum load as listed on the

table above and on the stand must be met to ensure correct braking action on the

winch.
