HSS Hire 86990 Operating & Safety Manual

You should always grip the shoulder height rungs
Operating & Safety Guide 962
with your hands when climbing, keeping your feet
in the middle of the rungs as you move up the
ladder. By holding the rungs, you can prevent a fall.
Always climb on the outer face never on the
Hire Shops
underside, and never lean too far to one side to reach.
Never do anything that involves applying a lot of
force. The ladder could topple over.
When in use, stand with your feet two or three rungs
below the stand off.

EQUIPMENT CARE

Never push the equipment beyond its design limits.
If it will not do what you want with reasonable ease and
speed, assume you have the wrong type of equipment
for the job. Contact your local HSS Hire Shop for advice.
Keep the equipment clean – you will find this less of a
chore if you clean it regularly, rather than wait until the
end of the hire period.
When not in use, store the equipment somewhere
clean, dry and safe from thieves and unauthorised users.

FINISHING OFF

Lower the ladder, then remove the ladder stay by
reversing the instructions in 'GETTING STARTED'.
Give the equipment a final clean ready for return
to your local HSS Hire Shop.
