3 SOFT TOUCH PUSH KNOB LOCKING HINGE
HINGE OPERATION
For safety, follow these Soft Touch push knob hinge
instructions:
The OX Telescopic Multi-ladder inner section allows the ladder to be
folded into 3 set positions; extension ladder, twin stepladder, and
storage. Each of these configurations is made possible by using
the Soft Touch push knob locking hinge located on each side of the
ladder.
To adjust the angle of the ladder:
1) With the center hinges in the closed position (See Figure 1) push
the push knobs with the palm of your hand directly into the
center of the ladder, they will stay in the open position.
2) In the open position (See Figure 2) the ladder angle can be
adjusted.
Note:
The open position can be verified by the exposed triple inner
posts on the push knob (See Figure 2).
3) When the ladder reaches any of the 3 set positions the push knobs
will automatically spring back into the closed position.
4) To close ladder to the folded position repeat steps 1-3.
Note:
Excess pressure on the centre hinge will make the push knob
difficult to operate. Do Not Use any tools to pry or manipulate the hinge
and or the push knob. If the push knob is difficult to use simply move
one of the leg sections in or out to unbind the lock.
WARNING
- Serious injury or death could result if supporting hinges
are NOT LOCKED when ladder is in use.
- Make certain supporting hinges are LOCKED before
using ladder EACH TIME.
