FAQs
What is the maximum working height?
The ladder itself is 4.18m long. The estimated safe working height is approximately 4.73m, assuming it's used at the correct angle and accounting for the user's reach.
What is the weight capacity of this ladder?
The ladder has a maximum load capacity of 150kg, which includes the user and any tools or materials they are carrying.
Is this ladder suitable for indoor use?
Yes, provided the indoor space is sufficient for the ladder's length and the floor is stable and level. However, care should be taken to protect flooring surfaces.
How should I clean the ladder?
Clean the ladder using a damp cloth with mild soap and water if necessary. Rinse with clean water and allow it to dry completely before storing. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
What does the EN131 standard mean?
EN131 is a European standard for ladders, specifying requirements for safety, strength, durability, and performance. Approval to this standard indicates the ladder meets current safety regulations for professional use.
Can I paint or modify the ladder?
It is not recommended to paint or modify the ladder, as this can compromise its structural integrity and safety features. Any modifications should only be performed by authorized technicians.
What maintenance is required?
Regular visual inspections for damage are essential. Ensure rungs and stiles are clean and that the stabiliser feet are in good condition and securely attached. Store properly to prevent damage.
Troubleshooting
Ladder feels unstable
Ensure the ladder is on a level surface. Check that the stabiliser bar is fully deployed and the feet are making firm contact. Verify the ladder is positioned at the correct angle and not leaning against a weak surface.
Rungs feel slippery
Clean the rungs thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any grease, oil, or mud. Ensure the rungs are dry before use. Avoid using the ladder in extremely wet or icy conditions without appropriate footwear.
Ladder appears damaged
Do not use the ladder if you notice any dents, bends, cracks, or loose parts. Contact the manufacturer or a qualified repair service for inspection or replacement.
Difficulty positioning the ladder accurately
Utilize the built-in ladder level gauge to ensure vertical alignment. Practice positioning the ladder at the correct angle (4:1 ratio) on a flat surface before using it at height.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the ladder is placed on a firm, level, and non-slippery surface.
- Position the ladder at the correct angle (typically a 4:1 ratio of base out to working height).
- Use the ladder level gauge to ensure the stiles are vertical and plumb.
- Extend the ladder to the desired height, ensuring all locking mechanisms (if applicable to the specific model configuration, though single sections are fixed) are secure. For this single section, ensure it's fully extended and stable.

Compatibility:
This ladder is designed for general trade and professional use. It is compatible with most standard construction sites and DIY projects requiring safe access to heights. Ensure the surface you are leaning it against is sound and capable of supporting the ladder's load.
Care:
- Regularly inspect the ladder for any signs of damage, such as dents, cracks, or excessive wear on the rungs and stiles.
- Clean the ladder after use with a damp cloth to remove dirt, paint, or debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
- Store the ladder in a dry, protected area away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
- Periodically check the condition of the slip-resistant feet and ensure they are securely attached.
