4. Explanations of the pictogrammes attached to
the product to guarantee safe use of the ladder.
Before using the ladder, read these instructions
carefully. The instructions are included in the
packaging. If they are missing, please contact your
dealer before using the ladder.
Never load a telescopic ladder in excess of 150
kg. This includes your own weight, the weight of
materials and tool as well
the additional force that arises when working. If
you are unsure about the weight, do not use the
ladder and consult your dealer or set up scaffolding.
Lean the ladder with the correct slope against the
wall. This can be easily checked by placing your feet
in front of the ladder and using both horizontally
held arms, holding the ladders by the beams.
Check before each use whether all parts of the
ladder are in good
condition. If in doubt, consult your dealer or
consider replacing the relevant part.
Before use, check whether the anti-slip feet are not
worn. If in doubt, consult your dealer or consider
replacing the relevant part.
A ladder may not be used by more than 1 person
at the same time.
Ensure that the ladder is secured against slipping
at all times. In case of doubt, tie the ladder firmly
or pin into the ground to secure the ladder base.
If you are using the ladder to access a roof, make
sure that the ladder projects 1 m above the roof
edge so that you have sufficient support when
climbing up onto the roof. Do not climb higher than
the roof edge to prevent the ladder from tipping
over. If not sure, tie the ladder firmly or pin into the
ground to secure the ladder base.
Never use the ladder without the base crossbeam.
This must be installed before use.
Never place the ladder on uneven surface.
Do not lean too far to the side and keep your upper
body always at the level of the ladder.
Never place the ladder on an uneven surface.
Never place the ladder in water or in the rain.
Place the ladder on a stable surface and make sure
that it does not sink into the ground.
Do not climb from the ladder to another object.
Never use the ladder with more than one person
at a time.
Never use the ladder as a bridge or platform.
Never climb the ladder with your back to the
ladder.
Be careful as the ladder can slip. It has a low weight
and can be easily knocked over, which may result in
dangerous situations.
