condition of the ladder, the function of all parts
must be ensured.

When setting up the ladder pay attention to the
entire secured opening of both ladder parts.
Avoid incorrect placement of the ladder.
2. Storage of the ladder

producer's instructions.
• Ladders made of or using thermoplastic, thermo-
setting plastic and reinforced plastic materials
should be stored out of direct sunlight.
• Store the ladder away from areas where its condi-
tion could deteriorate more rapidly (e.g. damp-
ness, excessive heat, or exposed to the elements).
• Store the ladder in a position which helps it to
remain straight (e.g. hung by the stiles on proper
ladder brackets or laid on a flat clutter free
surface).
• The ladder should be stored folded in a dry
environment vertically or lying flat.
• Store the ladder where it cannot be damaged by
vehicles, heavy objects, or contaminants?
• Store the ladder where it cannot cause a trip
hazard or an obstruction?
• Store the ladder in such a way that it is protected
from children at play and no person can be
disabled by it.

it is secured against unauthorized climbing
(e.g. by children).
