Lower Mounting Bracket		EASE OF USE QUESTIONS How much does the Crawler weight? The Crawler weighs approx. 90 lbs. And can usually be carried by one worker. How long does it take to set up the Crawler? First time set-up takes about 15 minutes to install 2 brackets. Subsequent mounting/dismounting takes 5 minutes. When the Crawler is attached, can the scaffold be used without a drill? Yes, the Crawler's floating drive wheel will lock in an up position in seconds and pushing the scaffold by hand is easy. How long will the Crawler operate on one battery charge? The larger the voltage, the longer running time. For example, the DeWalt 36 volt drill will operate the Crawler approx. 2,450 feet, the Bosch 24 volt drill approx. 1,650 ft. and the Hilti 18 volt approx. 1560 feet. The above data was compiled using new drills with new batteries and the Crawler being mounted on a six ft. Crawler brand scaffold. The total distance traveled is based on starting and restarting the Crawler in 30' intervals. Actual running time will depend on the application and operator.

		CRAWLER USE AND SCAFFOLDING QUESTIONS Is the scaffolding included with the Crawler? No, scaffold is not included with the Crawler, however we do offer our exclusive “Crawler Brand” scaffold and Crawler accessories. Will the Crawler fit any brand of scaffold? The Crawler is designed to fit any brand of "Baker" scaffold, (platform or fold up). (Perry, Eaglerock, Bil-Jax, Louisville, Granite, Sonny, Buffalo, etc.) There are features found on the Crawler brand scaffold that allow for easier set up and smoother operation. What is the maximum height the Crawler will extend? The Crawler height can easily be adjusted with no tools required. The Crawler can be extended to accommodate a six foot section of scaffold with guardrails attached, (see illustration at left). The Crawler, when completely extended will allow the operator to comfortably stand at an elevated platform height of approx. 7 feet, allowing an approx. 14' working height. Will the Crawler fit though a man door or into an elevator? Yes, the Crawler will compress to a total height of 79” allowing it to pass through a door opening without removing it from the scaffold. Does the Crawler's weight count against the scaffold load? The addition of the Crawler to a scaffold does not alter the weight limit set by the manufacturer of the scaffold. Because of the floating drive wheel, the pressure on the drive assembly remains constant regardless of the gross weight of the scaffold. The weight of the scaffold is not transferred to the drive wheel. Can the Crawler adjust to various platform height? Yes, The crawler can adjust to fit scaffolds from five feet to nine feet six inches in height. top of page
