INSTRUCTIONS
The combi ladde
r is a telescopic ladder with
dual functionality as a freestanding step ladder
with or without knee support/handle and as a
leaning ladder. Due to its unique design, it can be
expanded from a compact format to full height.
In order to retain the properties and function of
the ladder, you must use, look after and main-
tain your combi ladder as described in these
instructions.
WARNING! The combi ladder must
always be properly locked when in
use. Always check that all opened
rung sections are locked before clim-
bing the ladder. Don’t forget to check
the locking catches at the bottom,
which are not visible from above.
The combi ladder locks automatically when
you open it up.
The combi ladder must always be ful-
ly opened, to full height with or wi-
thout the knee support/handle. You
must not sit, stand or step on the com-
bi ladder unless it is fully opened,
and as a freestanding stepladder
also fully unfolded and locked with
the fold up locking latch.
Opening the combi ladder:
1 Remove the carry handle.
2 Position the combi ladder on a firm, level sur-
face. Keep the sides of the ladder together
and hold down the lowest rungs with your
foot when opening the ladder.
a)
Open up to a step ladder with knee
support/ handle:
Grip the top of the ladder
and pull out the upper rung section fully. Conti-
nue to pull out the rung sections one after ano-
ther, until the combi ladder is fully opened. Check
that the locking catches protrude completely.
b)Open up to a step ladder:
Grip the si-
des of the double rung (hinged joint) below
the knee support/handle and pull out the up-
per rung sections on both sides of the ladder
fully. After that the next section. Continue to
pull out the rung sections until both ladder
sides without the knee support/ handle are
fully open. Check that the locking catches
protrude completely.
3 Unfold both sides of the combi ladder. The
spreader must be fully stretched and the lad-
der at a 70° inclination angle. Bring out the
fold up locking latch between the both sides
of the ladder and secure it.
4 Check that all open rung sections are
locked:
the locking catches must prodtrude comple-
tely. When used without the knee support/
handle, the upper locking catches of the
closed sections will not protrude.
5 If necessary, adjust the ladder so that all rung
sections are in the locked position.
6 Once you have checked that the fold up lo-
cking latch and all opened rung sections are
locked, you can use the combi ladder as a
freestanding stepladder.
The combi ladder can also be used as a leaning
ladder. To convert the combi ladder into a
leaning ladder:
7 Open the ladder as described above (see
A Opening the combi ladder into a freestan-
ding step ladder).
8 First unlock the rung sections on the rear of
the ladder by pressing in the two bottom lo-
cking catches, one at a time.
9 Lean the combi ladder forwards. Slide together
the lower rung sections and secure the belt
around both rungs so they are held together.
10
Check that all rung sections on the
front ladder side of the combi lad-
der are locked:
all locking catches must protrude fully.
11 Use the combi ladder as a leaning ladder with
the rear folded ladder side hanging. Place the
ladder at a 65-70°inclination angle.
