The legs are fully adjustable to accommodate uneven surfaces, and the outrigger stabilisers have rubber feet that are large and articulated to provide exceptional stability to the entire structure.
The ladder rungs are hexagonal in shape, which makes it safer and easier for workers to climb the tower.
