Welcome to Allegro Industries
Hey everybody, Allegro Al here
I want to talk to you about safety and manholes
and demonstrate some great products that will not only keep you safe but make your whole job a lot easier
Allegro offers an all steel ergonomically designed Manhole Lid Lifter.
It features a long steel handle that provides the leverage necessary to lift the heaviest manhole covers.
Simply twist the locking collar and drop the hook down
Place the lid lifter on its anti-skid base.
Slide the hook under the manhole lid, push it in and then rock it back, pulling the handle to lift.
Then slowly pull the lid way from the manhole.
The product is ergonomically designed to use your arms and not your back.
After you've removed the lid, insert the hook back into the collar and lock it into place.
Make sure you always carry the lid lifter by the handle and not the hook
The Allegro manhole guardrail is designed to act as a manhole barrier by protecting workers from falling into a manhole.
The guardrail protects and 33 by 33 inch area and stands 42 inches high.
It collapses to forty-four inches squared by only four inches wide for easy storage and handling.
The unit weighs only thirty-four pounds and is constructed of strong .078 gauge steel
that is powder coated in bright safety yellow for high durability and visibility.
Setup is a snap
and no tools are required.
Simply unfold the three sides then attach the bracket which keeps the unit locked in place.
Before entering the manhole
attach the two chains for extra safety.
The unit is made to utilize many handy attachments including the guardrail winch
that easily mounts to the guardrail by attaching two side brackets.
Simply use the enclosed u-bolts and nuts to attach the brackets to the guardrail and tighten bolts "wrench tight."
Next, slide the winch into the cradle making sure it is seated properly.
Remove the locking nut and attach the winch handle.
Tightening the nut "wrench tight."
There are two safety pins that lock the unit into place.
Make sure they are both attached before using the winch.
The manhole shield fits 32 inch, 30 inch and 27 inch diameter manholes.
And is made of polyethylene making it durable, lightweight and will not rust.
The unit has unique inflatable watertight seal to help keep water out and stands 12 inches tall.
4 outrigger support gussets help stabilize the shield.
Made to fit inside the manhole guardrail, simply place the shield over the manhole,
inflate the seal and you're ready to go.
This 84 inch diameter Deluxe Umbrella offers low-cost protection from the sun and rain.
It features heavy-duty vinyl in safety yellow with a sturdy 92 inch two part metal pole that tilts for convenience.
It can be pushed into the ground, attached to the guardrail or used with an umbrella stand.
For easy storage, it collapses to 4 feet tall by 6 inch diameter.
Using the same heavy-duty safety yellow vinyl as the Deluxe Umbrella,
the Economy model uses strong pointed 84 inch two-part wood pole.
It is 68 inches in diameter and collapses to a convenient 4 foot tall by 6 inch diameter.
To set up, simply point the umbrella towards the ground or away from you and open it until the unit snaps into place.
Next, attach the additional pole.
The umbrella can be driven into soft surfaces using the pointed end of the pole, attached to the guardrail or used with an umbrella stand.
