FAQs
What is the maximum load capacity of this ladder?
The Lytepro+ Extension Ladder has a maximum load capacity of 150 kilograms.
Is this ladder suitable for DIY use?
While it meets professional standards, it is designed for regular industrial use. For occasional DIY tasks, it provides exceptional safety and durability, but may be more robust than typically required.
What does EN131-2 Professional Standard certification mean?
This certification indicates that the ladder has passed stringent safety, stability, and durability tests specifically for professional and industrial applications, ensuring reliable performance.
How do I ensure the ladder is safe to use?
Always inspect the ladder before each use for damage. Place it on a firm, level surface at the correct angle. Ensure all locking mechanisms are fully engaged before ascending. Do not exceed the maximum load capacity.
Are the wall running wheels replaceable?
Typically, replacement parts for industrial ladders can be sourced from the manufacturer or authorized distributors. Please consult the manufacturer's documentation or contact their support for specific part availability.
Can this ladder be used on uneven ground?
The ladder should always be placed on a firm, level surface. While the stabiliser bar enhances stability, it is not designed for use on significantly uneven terrain without appropriate leveling measures.
Troubleshooting
Ladder sections do not lock securely
Check for obstructions in the locking mechanism. Ensure the upper sections are fully extended. If the issue persists, inspect the mechanism for damage.
Difficulty extending or retracting ladder sections
Ensure the ladder is clean and free of dirt or debris that could impede movement. Check that the stiles are not bent. Lubricate the sliding mechanism sparingly if necessary.
Ladder feels unstable during use
Verify the ladder is placed on a firm, level surface. Ensure the stabiliser bar is properly engaged. Double-check that the ladder is positioned at the correct angle and that all locking mechanisms are secure.
Wall running wheels are stiff or stuck
Clean the wheels and the surrounding area to remove dirt or grit. Inspect the wheels for any damage or foreign objects.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Extend the ladder by disengaging the locking mechanisms on each section and carefully pulling the upper sections upwards. Ensure the ladder is fully locked out before use. Position the ladder on a firm, level surface at the correct angle (approximately 75 degrees, or a 4:1 ratio of distance up the wall to distance from the base).
Compatibility: This ladder is designed for industrial use and is certified to EN131-2 Professional Standard, making it suitable for use across Ireland and other regions adhering to these standards. Its wall running wheels allow for use against various sturdy vertical surfaces.
Care: Regularly inspect the ladder for any signs of damage, such as dents, bends, or loose rivets. Clean the aluminum rungs and stiles with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure moving parts, like the extension mechanism and wheels, remain free of debris. Store the ladder in a dry, protected area when not in use to prevent corrosion or damage.
