5.1.1 General safety instructions on use
• Observe the safety instructions in "2.3 General safety instructions".
• Never leave the platform steps unattended in places accessible to the public.
Secure the platform steps against unauthorised access.
• Secure the platform steps to prevent them rolling away. Lock the brake levers on
the swivel castors.
• Check the following before using the platform steps:

surface?

10 mm when the platform steps are set up and without load. If this is not
sufficient for the specific application conditions (e. g. use by very light or heavy
persons), the sprung castor can be moved up or down approximately 5 mm
after releasing the fastening screws.
