USE

Locks, if available, must be fully locked before use.
The stepladder must be placed on a smooth, level and stable base.
As a lean-to ladder it must lean against a smooth, stable surface and be fastened with a stable device before use.
Never move the stepladder from above.
When positioning the stepladder take into consideration the risk of collision, e.g. with pedestrians, vehicles or doors. Lock doors (not emergency exits) and windows in the work area, where possible.
Identify potential risks in the work area, such as high-tension cables or exposure to electrical components.
The stepladder must stand on its feet and not rest on a step.
Do not put the stepladder on slippery surfaces (for example, ice, shiny surfaces or heavily soiled surfaces) unless additional measures are taken to prevent it from slipping.
Do not exceed the maximum load for the stepladder.
Do not overreach. The user must keep the belt buckle (navel) inside the side rails and both feet on the same step when working.
Do not get off the stepladder at a higher level without additional safety measures, for example a suitable device to improve stability.
Do not use standalone ladders to get to another level.
Stepladders must only be used for simple jobs for short periods.
Do not use the stepladder outdoors in bad weather, for example in strong wind.

Face the stepladder when climbing up or down the steps.
Keep a firm grip on the steps when climbing up or down the stepladder.
Do not use the stepladder as a footbridge.
Wear suitable footwear when climbing on a stepladder.
Avoid work on stepladders that involves lateral tensions, for example drilling to the side in solid material (brick or concrete). Do not spend a long time on the stepladder without frequent breaks (tiredness is a risk factor).
Equipment carried up on a stepladder should be lightweight and easy to handle.
Always keep a firm grip with at least one hand when working on the stepladder, or if this is not possible take additional safety precautions.

MAINTENANCE

Check the parts on the stepladder and the hinges at regular intervals. Use low viscosity oil when it is cold. Lubricate the hinges at regular intervals, but be careful not to drip oil on the steps or side rails
Stepladders must be stored where they are not exposed to rain or snow, or direct sunlight.
