Safety warning:
The Fair-faced concrete positioning cone may
only be used on suspension points that are
located within a maximum of 80 cm from the
top edge of the concrete. The reason for this
restriction is the reduced load-bearing capac-
ity of such suspension points, due to the shal-

NOTICE
When making project-specific platforms,
observe the following points:
▪ Position brackets as symmetrically as pos-
sible and keep their cantilever short.
▪ Ensure that all loads are applied centrally. 9715-219-01
CAUTION ➤ Tilt up the railings. When you reach the stop, lift the

applied non-centrally.
If there is no way to avoid cantilevers extending
out to one side, observe the following points:
➤ Choose the widest possible bracket spacing
in relation to the cantilever!
➤ Allow for the greater influence of the bracket
in the cantilevering region!
➤ Contact your Doka technician for information
on further measures to prevent platforms tip-
ping over.
The anti-liftout guards are not suitable for sus-
taining planned forces! The anti-liftout guard is
