Leg Step
Steps are used to access the head when the legs are extended, to allow operators to untangle ropes or attach additional hardware such as karabiners, pulleys and rope. This prevents the need to lower the height of the system.
They attach to any of the holes on the lower or middle leg tubes with one pin (secured to the step with a stainless steel lanyard). They can fasten to either the inside or the outside of the legs. Ferno advocate that when using this function the operators should ensure safety by using an adjustable multi-purpose lanyard.
Steps do not carry a rating for any load applications.
Before using a step you must ensure that you are secured with suitable height safety rigging. |
