5. Safety instructions
Do not spend long periods on a ladder without
regular breaks (tiredness is a risk).
Prevent damage of the ladder when transporting
e.g. by fastening and ensure they are suitably
placed to prevent damage.
Ensure the ladder is suitable for the task.
Do not use the ladder if contaminated,
e.g. with wet paint, mud, oil or snow.
Do not use the ladder outside in adverse weather
conditions, such as strong wind.
For professional use a risk assessment
shall be carried out respecting the legislation
in the country of use.
When positioning the ladder take into account risk
of collision with the ladder e.g. from pedestrians,
vehicles or doors.
Secure doors (not fire exits) and windows where
possible in the work area.
Warning, electricity hazard.
Identify any electrical risks in the work area,
such as overhead lines or other exposed electrical
equipment and do not use the ladder where
electrical risks occur.
Use non-conductive ladders for unavoidable live
electrical work.
