Cautions & Warnings
For safety reasons, ladders in general shall always be
used with care and common sense. With regard to the
telescopic ladder, the following should be pointed out:
1. The ladder should always be used at an angle of
75 degrees in relation to the ground (Fig. 10).
2. The ladder is designed to support a maximum load
of 150kg (Fig. 11)
3. The ladder should always be used on a flat and
firm level surface.
4. The upper rung must never be used as a foot step.
5. The ladder must be used with a regular distance
between the steps. Do not leave any steps without
extending and blocking them completely (Fig. 12).
6. Avoid using the ladder in locations such as wa-
ter-filled wells to avoid dirt and water getting in the
tubes.
7. Avoid subjecting the ladder to knocks or rough
treatment, as damage to the tubes directly affects
the telescopic function.
8. Always transport the ladder in folded position, so
that the telescopic tubes are protected inside each
other and cannot be damaged.
9. The ladder must not be used by hanging it from
the top rung.
10. Do not open, close or use the ladder upside down.
11. The ladder must not be used in a horizontal posi-
tion such as resting on a step or sawhorse.
