− Do not use the ladder to bridge
distances or as a bridge.
− Wear suitably sturdy shoes when
you climb onto the ladder.
− Avoid working on the ladder with
a one-sided load, e.g. drilling
sideways through solid materials
(e.g. bricks or concrete).
− Do not remain too long on the
ladder without regular pauses
(tiredness is a danger). Climb off
of the ladder immediately if you
feel tired.
− Leaning ladders for reaching ele-
vated heights should be pushed
at least 1 m past the contact
point.
− Do not climb higher than the last
metre of the leaning ladder.
− Carry only light, manageable
items when you are on the
ladder.
− Always hold on with one hand
when working on the ladder or, if
this is not possible, take addi-
tional security precautions.
− Before use, ensure that the lock-
ing devices of the ladder function
and that all extended sections
are properly locked before you
climb onto the ladder. Only use
the ladder if it functions properly.
− Make sure that there are no lines
or pipes, unsecured windows and
doors or buttresses nearby
before you climb onto the ladder.
