Troubleshooting

Ladder feels wobbly during use

Verify that all four feet are making contact with a flat surface and ensure the safety locking mechanism is fully engaged.

Locking mechanism is difficult to open or close

Slippage on smooth flooring

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the ladder, fully expand the frame until the safety locking mechanism clicks into place. Always ensure the ladder is placed on a flat, level, and solid surface. To maintain the unit, check all bolts and hinges periodically to ensure they remain tight. Clean the non-slip treads regularly with a mild detergent and water to remove debris that could compromise grip. When not in use, store the ladder in a dry, indoor area to prevent rust or degradation of the rubber components. Do not leave the ladder exposed to harsh weather conditions, as this can affect the integrity of the locking mechanism and safety labels.
