G. Stairway Ladder 

 setup:

To use as a Stairway Ladder, use 

same set up procedure as with the 

Step 

Ladder setup

 (Steps F1 through F3, Pg. 8), 

EXCEPT one side of ladder MUST be 

adjusted one or two rungs shorter (See 

Adjusting height

, Pg. 6). Check 

to make sure small arrows on Hinge 

Lock Knobs are aligned with the 

arrows stamped on the hinge 

bodies, indicating hinges are 

locked. (See Fig. C1, Pg. 4).

To utilize, place the 

short side of ladder on desired 

stairway step (long side 

must ALWAYS be on floor or 

large landing area). Make sure 

ladder is completely to back of step to avoid 

slippage. Do not use on open-back steps.

Reverse steps to fold.

H. Wall Ladder 

 setup:

To use as a Wall Ladder, use same set 

up procedure as with the 

Step Ladder 

setup

 (Steps F1 through F3),  EXCEPT 

one side of ladder MUST be adjusted 

one rung shorter than the other. Check 

to make sure small arrows on Hinge 

Lock Knobs are aligned with 

the arrows stamped on the hinge 

bodies, indicating hinges are 

locked. (See Fig. C1, Pg. 4).

To utilize, place the short 

side of ladder next to wall.

Reverse steps to fold.

Note:

 Pinch hazard! Be aware of sliding/moving 

parts. Keep hands and feet clear.

J. Extension Ladder 

 setup:

To configure as an Extension Ladder, begin 

by adjusting rail length as outlined in 

E. Adjusting height

, Steps E1 

through E5, Pgs. 6 & 7. 

NOTE, in the 

Extension Ladder configuration, adjust the 

rail length to desired ladder length 

at this time.

 

With ladder flat on the ground, release Hinge 

Locks (See 

C. Hinge Lock operation

, steps C1, 

C2, Pg. 4). Pull two rail sections apart until 

hinges are locked into the A-frame config-

uration.  Check to make sure small 

arrows on Hinge Lock Knobs  are 

aligned with the arrows stamped 

on the hinge bodies, indicating 

hinges are locked. (See Fig. C1, 

Pg. 4). 

With one hand supporting elevated rail, release Hinge Locks again, one at 

a time.  

Attempting to release hinge locks without supporting elevated rail 

may result in rail sections folding violently risking injury.

  Pull two rail 

sections further apart until hinge locks “click” into extension ladder 

configuration. Check to make sure 

small arrows on Hinge Lock 

Knobs  are aligned with the 

arrows stamped on the 

hinge bodies, 

indicating hinges 

are locked, 

(See Fig. C1, 

Pg. 4).

Reverse steps 

to fold.
