Tips and precautions
1. Keep clothing and body parts away from the hinges and lock
assemblies while in the process of adjusting the ladder. These heavy
duty mechanisms will pinch if carelessly adjusted.
2. When extending the inner ladder within the outer ladder railings, never
let clothing or body parts be placed between the moving rungs. When
extending the ladder up or down always hold the ladder with both hands
on the vertical upper rails or the hinges of the ladder.
3. When working around electricity or when electricity is involved, be very
careful and take all precautions to prevent the ladder from making
contact with any electrical circuits.
4. When using ladders be sure to:
•
Set all four feet on a firm level surface
• Keep steps dry and clean
• Wear slip-resistant shoes
• Keep body centred between both side rails
• Read additional instructions on ladder
5. When using the ladder in the extension position, use the proper working
angle, which requires that the distance from the base of the ladder to
the base of the support wall must be 1/4 the height of the ladder, ie: 1
foot out from the wall for every four foot in height, or approximately at a
75° angle.
6. Dependent on the model ladder you have purchased they are rated to
the following load bearing capacity and AS/NZS 1892.1:1996 standard:
• 180kg load bearing capacity.
• 150kg load bearing capacity
• 120kg load bearing capacity.
Do not exceed safe working limits.
7. The Transforma
™
Ladder System has been designed so the surface of
the rungs are parallel to the surface upon which the ladder stands.
