The most common mistakes when working with formwork
9 September 2024
Large equipment, such as combines, tractors, seeders and other agricultural machines, periodically require maintenance and repair, because everything sometimes, sooner or later, breaks down.
Since the height of the vehicle is high, repairmen need stands to reach components located at height. It is convenient to use articulated ladders for this.
The 4x4 ladder folds out in several positions:
An articulated ladder can be made of different materials:
Multifunctional hinged ladders are made of 4 sections so that the ladder can be unfolded in several positions.
There are two-section hinged ladders, but they have only 3 working positions:
Sections of a hinged ladder are attached to each other using hinges. Some manufacturers suggest using an auxiliary lever to change the position of the ladder. But we made Virastar hinged ladders with automatic hinges that do not need to be unlocked with a lever or other tool.
When repairing large equipment, mechanics have to repair various components, for example, replacing controller network connectors, water pump, transmissions, etc. If the equipment is large, a ladder is needed to repair it. To have access to different heights and to work in both supported and unsupported positions, it is convenient to use hinged ladders.
In the ladder position, the working height is greatest. In the position of the working platform with sheets of flooring, the worker can take a step left and right. The double-sided stepladder provides significant working height in an unsupported position.
If you need a ladder for maintenance and repair of equipment, choose the VIRASTAR TRANSFORMER articulated ladder.
This model is made from reinforced aluminum profile, which has an additional stiffening rib. Thanks to this, the ladder can easily withstand a load of 150 kg.
