The use of a TCS outrigger (raker) is limited to a single length of scaffold tubing not more than 6.4 meters (21 ft.) in length with an angle between 65 and 75. For scaffolds stabilized by outriggers, only one additional lift is allowed above the outrigger tie-in point. The bottom of the outrigger must align with and connect to the two standards of the row, and the top of the outrigger should be coupled to the scaffold no higher than the third lift. Midpoint bracing shall be provided for the outrigger to prevent buckling.
