ASH4000 High Level Supplementary Support Stand

Thank you for purchasing a Sealey product. Manufactured to a high standard, this product will, if used according to these instructions, and properly maintained, give you years of trouble free performance.
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. NOTE THE SAFE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS, WARNINGS & CAUTIONS. USE THE PRODUCT CORRECTLY AND WITH CARE FOR THE PURPOSE FOR  WHICH IT IS INTENDED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY. KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS SAFE FOR FUTURE USE.

IMPORTANT NOTE: these stands are rated singly. Used in pairs they will support twice the rated load.
TAKE CARE; you may know the total weight of the load you want to support but you cannot calculate the exact weight distribution between support points.
For this reason always allow a 40% margin for error.
For example: a load weighing 8tonne could have a single point load of more than 4tonne and two 4tonne supports would not be adequate.
Note: Sold singly but must be used in pairs.
Only to be used in conjunction with permanently fixed lifts. Not mobile column lifts.

OPERATION

4.1. Before undertaking work, conduct a risk assessment with a responsible person and ensure it covers the weight to be supported and a margin for error. Never work alone on a load supported on these stands. It is the employer’s responsibility to ensure the operator has read these instructions and is familiar with the products’ use and limitations.

Engage the assistance of a colleague  while you perform this task. LOWER ONTO ALL STANDS BEING USED AT THE SAME TIME, ensuring load is lowered onto the centre of the crutch/saddle.
