3. Unlock the four outer ladder locks (Fig. 18-26).
4. Begin extending the ladder by placing one hand on the hinge and tipping the ladder back.
The outer ladder assembly will begin to slide down the inner ladder assembly (Fig. 28).
Use your other hand to align the inner and outer rungs at the desired height, making sure
to keep your hands to the outside of the ladder to avoid pinching as the rungs pass each
other. Once at the desired height, lock the outer ladder locks completely into the inner
rung holes before adjusting the other side.
5. To extend the other side, hold on to the hinges or inner ladder rails, and raise the inner
ladder assembly (Fig. 29). Once at the desired height, use one hand to hold the inner and
outer rungs in alignment, then use your other hand to lock the remaining outer ladder
locks completely into the inner rung holes.
6. Make sure the ladder is level and all four feet are solidly planted before climbing.
7. To return the ladder to the storage position, reverse these steps, making sure to always
hold the inner ladder assembly firmly in place as you release the outer lock assemblies,
and keep your hands and clothing away from any moving parts.
WARNING:
HOLDING THE INNER LADDER ASSEMBLY TO PREVENT IT FROM SLIDING DOWN. THE
LADDER CAN RETRACT QUICKLY AND MAY CAUSE INJURY. NEVER HAVE YOUR FEET
DIRECTLY UNDER THE LADDER WHILE ADJUSTING IT.
E. Staircase Mode Instructions
1. Start with the ladder in the small stepladder mode. Adjust
the outer ladder assemblies to fit the staircase while
keeping the rungs approximately level front-to-back.
2. If equipped with TIP & GLIDE™ wheels, the wheels should
be placed to the bottom, facing away from the stairs
(Fig. 30).
