ATTACH THE STABILISER BAR 1. Flip the telescopic ladder upside down. 2. You will notice plastic pins in the slot on each foot. In order to attach the stabiliser bar (7), these pins will need to be removed. • This can be done using a flathead screwdriver.
INSPECTION BEFORE EACH USE The following items shall be checked before using the ladder: 1. Check that the stiles/legs (uprights) are not bent, bowed, twisted, dented, cracked, corroded or rotten. 2. Check that the stiles/legs around the fixing points for other components are in good condition.
OPERATION The telescopic ladder can be used at different heights for different tasks. NOTE: The ladder shall be erected at the correct angle for a leaning ladder (angle of inclination approximately 1:4) with the rungs or treads level (e.g. 0.5 m away from the base of a wall if extending to climb 2 m up).
