Installation/disassembly
The GEDA rubbish chute is suitable for virtually all installation situations
on account of the versatile mounting options.
The rubbish chute is generally installed using the hand winch. When
using other installation aids, it must be ensured that they are suitable for
the intended purpose and for the loads which occur.
Important information relating to installation:
•
Intermediate fastening points must be provided every 10 metres
(fastening = 2.5 kN). GEDA provides appropriate chains with
carabiners for this purpose. The rubbish chute must not be deflected
by the intermediate fastening points.
•
When releasing the rope of the hand winch to pull up the rubbish
chute, there must be at least two turns remaining on the rope drum.
•
Only pull the rubbish chute up vertically. Otherwise there is the risk
that the lifting equipment will be overloaded and damaged.
•
The rubbish chute must hang freely. It must not rest against
scaffolding tubes etc.
•
Avoiding twisting the suspension chains.
•
If the rubbish chute is also intended to be filled from intermediate
storeys, the corresponding branching points must be provided when
pulling up the rubbish chute. An intermediate fastening point must be
provided at each branching point for filling.
•
If fall protection (intermediate bar) must be removed to install the
filling funnel, then tubes must be attached to the left and right up to
the funnel as a replacement to ensure protection against falling.
