CONFIGURATION AND POSITIONING
The ladder can be used in one of the configurations shown.
• Extension ladder
• Step ladder
• Extended step ladder
1. When positioning the ladder take
into account risk of collision with
the ladder e.g. from pedestrians,
vehicles or doors. Secure
adjacent doors (not fire exits) and
windows where possible.
2. Identify any electrical risks in the
work area, such as overhead
cables or other exposed electrical
equipment.
3. Always place the base of the
ladder on an even, level surface.
4. Ladders should not be positioned
on slippery surfaces (such as ice,
shiny surfaces or significantly
contaminated solid surfaces).
5. If in doubt, additional effective
measures should be taken to
prevent the ladder slipping such
as tying the feet of the ladder to
stakes in the ground, and placing
a large flat wooden board
underneath to help prevent it
sinking.
