Safe Installation

To reduce the risk of electrocution, drowning, entrapment, falls, or other serious 

injury or death: 

Check building codes/permitting. 

Consult your local Building Department before installation of your pool and 

equipment. Pool/equipment installation must comply with the codes of the authority having jurisdiction and may 

require permits (e.g., building, plumbing, electrical, zoning, etc.).

Use for intended purpose only

•  Use only as a swimming pool ladder.

•  This ladder is designed and manufactured for a specific pool wall height and/or deck of the pool - check product 

specification and the height of your pool.

Check that you have all required parts. 

Check the contents of the carton with the Parts List for this ladder. All parts 

and hardware are required. If any parts are missing, 

DO NOT attempt to assemble or install the ladder.

 Instead, 

call Toll Free U.S. - 800-635-3213 or visit our web site at www.conferladders.com for assistance.

Select an appropriate location

 - The ladder must be located on a level, solid base and in a location that will be in full 

view of competent adult supervision when in use.

Follow all instructions

•  For stable, correct assembly and installation, all instructions must be followed completely and in the sequence 

shown.

•  Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the safe use of all hand tools and equipment used during 

installation.

Cordless drill only - no corded drills near pool.

 Use a cordless drill for assembly and installation. To reduce the risk 

of electrocution, NEVER use a corded drill in or around a pool.

Lift safely.

 When lifting awkward or heavy loads, have another person help you.

Double check after installation

•  Before using the product, after assembly and installation, go over the instructions and procedures again to make 

sure nothing has been overlooked.

•  Make sure that safety labels are installed and legible.

separated before starting assembly. Using a 

sharp knife, carefully cut the posts apart. When 

finished you will have two long posts and two 

short posts as required in step #7.

Lay one of the side panels down on a clean, 

flat surface. Push the end of each step into the 

openings of the side panel. Make sure that the 

riser groove in the top of each step is lined up 

with the riser recess in the side panel and the 

engraved markings “Danger No Jumping/No 

Diving” are facing toward the front of the unit.

Insert a riser between each of the steps so 

that the ends of the risers align in the riser 

recesses on the same panel.  

Note: Position riser so center hole faces 

“back” of steps.
