Safe Working Practices - Mobile Tower Scaffold


To reduce risk when using mobile tower scaffold, the following safe work practices shall be followed:
  • Guard rails must be fitted to the work platform
  • Wheels should be locked and turned outwards, when the tower is in use
  • Tower must be sited on firm, level ground
  • Outriggers should be used where necessary to ensure stability
  • Tower must not be overloaded
  • People and materials should not remain in platform when the tower is moved
  • Care should be taken to avoid overheads when the tower is moved
  • People should climb up using ladder through the inside of the tower
  • Tower must be built by trained workers
