Repair and maintenance


Repair and maintenance work to ladders must be performed by expert
personnel and in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. And
in the case of ladders used in a professional context, they must be in-
spected by a competent person.
A competent person is anybody possessing the knowledge of how to
perform repairs or maintenance work; e.g. after receiving training from
the manufacturer.
in the event of doubt, ladders should be repaired by specialist compa-
nies or the manufacturer.
in the event of repairs and the replacement of parts – e.g. feet – the
manufacturer or dealer must be contacted if necessary.
Depending on usage frequency and environmental influences, ladders
must be serviced regularly. this involves cleaning, function checks of
moving parts and, if necessary, cleaning.
treat heavy soiling with warm water and commercially available clean-
ing agents, and dry down the ladders with a clean cloth. Solvent-based
cleaning agents must not be used.
Moving parts – such as hinges, lift locks, spring bolts, etc. – are to be
treated with commercially available spray grease (e.g hhS 2000) if
required.
Oil must not be used for lubrication. Make sure that rungs, steps and
step pads are not covered in grease or oil, or become so. if this does
occur, clean the affected areas immediately; e.g. with some spirit.
ladders made from wood must not be covered with opaque or water
vapour-tight paints.
