While replacement parts may be available from the manufacturer or authorized dealers, it is recommended to contact Hymer customer support for guidance on part availability and replacement procedures.
What makes this ladder suitable for small spaces?

Troubleshooting
Ladder feels unstable when open.
Ensure the ladder is placed on a flat, stable surface. Verify that the anti-splay straps are securely engaged and taut. Check that both sides are fully extended.
Difficulty unfolding or collapsing the ladder.
Check for any obstructions or debris in the hinge mechanisms. Ensure the ladder is not being forced; smooth operation is expected. Clean hinges if necessary.
Anodised finish appears discoloured.
This can sometimes occur with prolonged exposure to certain chemicals or intense sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Avoid harsh chemicals.
