Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is a lifting tripod, and how does it work?
A lifting tripod is a portable, three-legged device providing a stable, secure anchor point for hoisting or lowering personnel or equipment. It is typically paired with a winch system for controlled movement, essential for maintenance and rescue.
What is the difference between a tripod lifting frame and a tripod lifting device?
A tripod lifting frame refers only to the structural anchor point (the three legs). A tripod lifting device refers to the complete system: the frame plus the mechanical components (winch and pulley system) used for the actual lifting operation.
What regulatory standards apply to my lifting tripod in the UK?
When your lifting tripod handles personnel or materials, it falls under LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998), requiring thorough examination every six months (man-riding) or 12 months (materials). PUWER also applies, mandating suitability and proper maintenance.
Can a tripod and winch system be used for rescue operations?
Yes. Tripod and winch systems are essential for confined space rescue. They provide a controlled, safe method for lowering and retrieving individuals, a key function of our dedicated rescue tripods.
