Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the ladder, ensure it is placed on a level, firm surface. Fully open the front and back sections until the internal spreaders are locked in place. Before climbing, visually inspect the fibreglass rails for any cracks or splintering. To maintain the ladder, wipe down the fibreglass rails with a damp cloth after use to remove dust and debris. Do not store the ladder in direct sunlight for extended periods, as UV radiation can eventually degrade the fibreglass finish over many years. When not in use, store it in a dry area to prevent the steps or fasteners from accumulating unnecessary moisture.
