The Lyte Glassfibre Platform Step Ladder is engineered for high performance in challenging environments. It is an indispensable tool for electricians and maintenance technicians working on electrical installations, wiring, or lighting fixtures, where the risk of live currents necessitates non-conductive equipment. Its reinforced platform and non-slip treads provide a secure base for tasks requiring extended periods at height, such as data cabling, HVAC maintenance, or intricate assembly work in industrial settings. The integrated tool tray significantly boosts efficiency, allowing professionals to keep essential tools like screwdrivers, pliers, or meters right at hand, reducing trips up and down the ladder. This ladder excels in scenarios where safety, stability, and durability are paramount, ensuring compliance with professional standards and enabling focused, confident work.
To set up your Lyte Glassfibre Platform Step Ladder, simply unfold it fully. Ensure that all four legs are extended and that any locking mechanisms are securely engaged. Place the ladder on a firm, level surface, checking for stability before ascending. The handrails will automatically be in position once the ladder is unfolded.
This ladder is highly compatible with professional trade and industrial environments, especially those involving electrical work. It is designed to safely support a single user up to a maximum weight of 150kg, including tools and materials. Its robust construction makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, though it should always be used on stable ground.
Regular care and inspection will prolong the life and ensure the safety of your ladder.
Cleaning: Wipe down the fibreglass stiles and platform with a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the fibreglass or rubber components. Ensure the ladder is dry before storage.
Inspection: Before each use, inspect the ladder for any signs of damage, such as cracks in the fibreglass, loose rivets, worn rubber feet, or bent components. Check that all cross braces and ‘K’ straps are intact and secure.
Storage: Store the ladder in a clean, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to prevent material degradation. Store it in a way that prevents it from being knocked over or subjected to undue stress.
