Safety instructions
Do not use any attachments, components or
accessories that have not been expressly
approved for this ladder.
Before using the ladder, make sure that the
safety devices on the platform
hooked on.
Only place the ladder onto a level, dry, unmov-
able and firm subsurface. Never try to increase
the working height by putting the ladder onto
other objects.
Do not use the ladder on slippery surfaces.
CAUTION! RISK OF CRUSHING! Take
particular care when opening or closing the
ladder. Keep your distance from moving parts
and the safety devices.
Do not place the ladder in front of doors that
have not been locked.
Do not use the ladder as a bridging structure.
Make sure that all plastic feet are firmly on the
floor.
Be particularly careful when you set the ladder
up on protective film, a carpet or other protec-
tive subsurfaces. The plastic feet may not have
enough grip and may, therefore, slip.
The use of frame attachments is prohibited for
this ladder.
Attention! Metal is an electrical conductor!
Make sure that no part of the ladder is touch-
ing a live cable.
When positioning the ladder take into account
risk of collision with the ladder e.g. from pedes-
trians, vehicles or doors. Secure doors (not fire
exits) and windows where possible in the work
area.
Ladder shall be stood on its feet, not the rungs
or steps.
