Troubleshooting
Ladder feels unstable
Ensure the ladder is placed on a completely flat and firm surface. Check that all legs are firmly on the ground and that the locking mechanisms are fully engaged. Inspect for any damage to the stiles or back legs.
Non-slip feet appear worn
Inspect the non-slip feet for significant wear. If compromised, contact the manufacturer for replacement parts. Continued use with worn feet can reduce grip and stability.
Handrail feels loose
Check all fixings connecting the handrail to the ladder structure. Tighten any loose bolts or rivets. If the handrail itself is damaged, cease use and contact the manufacturer.
