The support, also known as a load-bearing pole, ensures a reliably secure hold. This is made possible by an extremely stable construction that offers a load capacity of up to 350 kg. The maximum load capacity depends on the size of the support and the extension length. Additional safety is provided by rubberized PVC contact surfaces at both ends, as well as a slip protection integrated into the handle.

The support can be precisely adjusted to meet requirements and securely released. This is done in three steps: First, the release button is pressed to pre-set the ceiling support. Then, the telescopic inner tube is extended to the desired length. Fine adjustment is made by operating the pump lever until the base plate of the support rests against the workpiece. After that, the handle is turned clockwise until the desired holding force is reached, always keeping the maximum load capacity in mind.

To relax the support, two steps are required. First, the ceiling support is turned counterclockwise until there is no holding force left. Then, the release button can be pressed to retract the inner tube.
