Introduction

The Builders Trestle(s) you have just purchased was supplied by Dermot

Redmond Engineering of Bunclody, Co Wexford. Provided the instructions for

the operation and maintenance of the trestle are followed, it will work

perfectly for many years.

The trestle handrail system has been designed in compliance with the Working

at Height Regulations and has been fully tested in accordance with: BS1139

Part 4 1982.

Prior to assembly of the trestle the user should familiarize themselves fully

with the contents of this document and pay particular regard to the safety

instructions should be given to ensure that they are aware of the safety

procedures. Please call our office on 053-9377082 should you require some
