Do not straighten deformed parts.
5.
immediately remove Scaffold from service and destroy if exposed to excessive heat, such as fire, due to loss of structural strength.
6.
Do not allow objects or slippery material to accumulate on Scaffold.
3.
acids and other corrosive substances may severely affect metal strength on the Scaffold.
Use extreme care around such materials and follow instructions. Do not use acids or other corrosive substances on Scaffold parts.
7.
Do not use with damaged or deteriorated deck.
Periodically coat wood decking and rails with transparent (penetrating) wood preservative.

8.
Do not use for cantilever applications.
Use with supports directly underneath.
9.
rated working load: 900 lb. for one stage. total combined weight of workers and materials must not exceed rated working load. Do not overload. Distribute load evenly.
Be aware of dynamic loading! Jumping on or dropping load may briefly create excess load causing product failure.
10.
Do not stack scaffold over one stage high.
11.
position on hard level surface, level the working/standing surface, and lock wheels before getting on scaffold.
12.
Do not use ladder or other climbing device on top of scaffold.
13.
Use guard rails, mid rails and toe boards as required by local, state and federal regulations. Using such safety devices is always recommended.
14.
Do not climb onto Scaffold from ladder unless both Scaffold and ladder are secured from movement in all directions.
15.
Scaffolds that are covered in ice or snow cannot be used until they are cleaned off thoroughly.
Scaffolds MUST NOT be used during storms or in windy weather.
16.
Work stands may only be used on a floor or surface which is within 1-1/2 degrees from level, smooth (the equivalent of broom finished concrete) and free from pits, holes or obstructions.
17.
all tools or materials shall be secured or removed from the platform unit(s) before the mobile work stand is moved.
18.
persons shall be prohibited from riding on mobile work stands while they are being moved.
19.

A moment of inattention while using may result in serious personal injury.
23. Only use safety equipment that has been approved by an appropriate standards agency. Unapproved safety equipment may not provide adequate protection. Fall-arrest systems must be OSHAapproved, eye protection must be ANSI-approved, and breathing protection must be NIOSH-approved for the specific hazards in the work area.
24. Store idle Scaffold out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the Scaffold to climb on, or use it for any purpose. The Scaffold is dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
25.
Check for misalignment or binding of parts, cracks and/or breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect safe operation.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
26.
the warnings included in this manual are intended to give general safety guidelines.
Scaffold safety regulations may change periodically. the operator is responsible to be familiar with and obey current OSHa guidelines as well as local, state, and federal regulations regarding the set up and use of this product.
27. Have Scaffold serviced by a qualified repair person only. This will ensure that the safety of this Scaffold is maintained.
28. Only use the included platform or an identical replacement platform. The platform must not extend beyond the base support.
29. Maintain labels and nameplates on the
Scaffold. These carry important safety information. If unreadable or missing, contact
Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
30. The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur.

tO prEVEnt SEriOUS inJUry:
Scaffold components from other manufacturers must not be used with this Scaffold.
Safety equipment added to this Scaffold, such as rails, toe guards, stability strapping, and safety harnesses, must be installed by a qualified technician. they must fit together without being forced, and the Scaffold’s structural integrity must be maintained.
note:
For additional information regarding the parts listed in the following pages, refer to

on page 10.
1. Mount the Swivel Casters (4) to the bottom of the
End Frames (1) by sliding each Swivel Caster (4) into a leg and securing it with a Locking Pin (5).
Then snap the Pin Spring (6) around the end of the
Locking Pin to keep it in place. Refer to Figure A.
2. Slide a Side Rail (2) onto an End Frame and secure in place using Height Adjustment Pin (7) and a Locking Pin and Pin Spring. Secure the other end of the Side Rail to the other End
Frame in the same manner. Refer to Figure B.

Operating instructions
read the EntirE iMpOrtant SaFEty inFOrMatiOn section at the beginning of this manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.
tO prEVEnt SEriOUS inJUry anD DEatH: put on safety harness (not included) before climbing onto Scaffold.
Do not use the End Frames or any other part of this Scaffold as a means of climbing onto the Scaffold.
tO prEVEnt SEriOUS inJUry: inspect Scaffolds thoroughly before use each day. Check all components and Locking pins before each use.
Do not use front-end loaders, forklifts or similar pieces of equipment to support Scaffold platforms.
General Operating instructions
WarninG! tO prEVEnt SEriOUS inJUry,
DO nOt pErMit pEOpLE Or EQUipMEnt On tHE SCaFFOLD WHiLE it iS BEinG MOVED.
1. Wheel the Scaffold to the area where it will be used, grasping and pushing the scaffold at points no higher than 5 feet off the floor to help prevent tipping.
the surface where this Scaffold is placed must be capable of supporting the loaded Scaffold without settling or displacement. Use this Scaffold on concrete or asphalt concrete only.
2. Lock the Swivel Casters (4) by depressing the Lock Mechanism attached to each Wheel.
Pressing down on the end marked ON locks the Swivel Caster. Pressing down on the end marked OFF unlocks the Caster.

FrOM inStaBiLity:
Use a level to verify that the Scaffold frame is plumb and level in all directions. “Eyeballing” the straightness of the Scaffold is not accurate enough.
3. A ladder should normally be used to climb onto the
Scaffold.
the ladder must be positioned so as not to tip the Scaffold when weight is placed against it.
Any “attachable” ladders used must be specifically designed for this type of Scaffold.
They must clamp securely in place to the Scaffold and any ladder used must be securely held in place during use to prevent movement. Any ladder (normal or stairway type) must meet
OSHA requirements for use with scaffolds.
4. If the Scaffold will be accessed directly (such as from an opening in the side of a building), it cannot be more than 14 inches horizontally nor more than 24 inches vertically from the other surface.
5.
Each worker on a scaffold more than 10 feet above a lower level MUSt be protected from falling to that lower level.
Fall protection consists of either personal fall arrest systems, or guardrail systems meeting OSHA requirements.
6. For most activities, there must be no more than a 14 inch gap between the Scaffold platform and the structure being worked on. One exception is when using for lathing and plastering.
For this, a gap of 18 inches is permitted.
7. If toe-boards, guardrails, or canopies are used to prevent a “falling object” hazard to passers-by, then the area below the Scaffold must be barricaded and the danger clearly stated.
8. All plug-in electric tools used on the Scaffold must be protected by a GFCI outlet or plug.
9. When finished using the Scaffold, wipe down the
Wood Platform (3) and all metal supports. Then store the tool indoors out of children’s reach.
note:
Be aware of any grease or other oily substance spilled on Wood Platform and wipe up immediately.
