Abstract
An apparatus for supporting a roof seaming machine on a roof has a frame formed by a pair of spaced support members. Each support member includes an arm having a slotted transverse channel member affixed to one end thereof, and a vertical column is connected to the opposite end of the arm. A platform for supporting the seaming machine is connected to the frame by a pair of hinge knuckles which allow the platform to be folded upward when the machine is not resting on it. The frame is secured to the roof by applying clamps to roof seams where the seams protrude through slots in the channel members, thus enabling the platform to support the machine beyond the edge of the roof.
