7. Assembly and operation
7.1 Extending and setting up the ladder
Caution, damage!
Always handle the ladder carefully.
Extend and collapse the ladder in a deliberate and
careful way. If a rail is bent or damaged, the ladder
can potentially be extended or collapsed only with
difficulty or not at all.
NOTE
1.
Advance note:
Always extend the telescoping ladder from the
lowest extendable rung upwards; the telescoping
ladder must not be extended using a rung from
the middle or upper part.
2. Place the collapsed ladder vertically on a firm
level surface and place one foot in the middle
of the locked ground rung (1st rung) in order to
secure the ladder.
Grasp with both hands and carefully extend the
rails under the black retaining rings [E] of the
3rd rung [B] (the rung of the lowest extendable
section of the ladder) until the whole section
is completely extended and the ladder rung is
completely engaged.
Repeat this work step (the next extendable rung
is the 4th rung from the bottom).
3. In order to ascend a ladder rung, the locking
guides [F] on the 2nd and 3rd rung must be
completely filled in GREEN.
GREEN means:
The ladder rung is locked and can be ascended.
RED or RED/GREEN means:
The ladder rung is not locked.
In addition, further locking guide [F-1] is located
underneath the ladder rung.
When the ladder is extended, this GREEN mark-
ing also indicates from below that the ladder
rung is safely locked.
