C. General Operating Safety Tips
WARNING: LITTLE GIANT LADDER SYSTEMS ASSUMES NO LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE
OR INJURY THAT MAY RESULT FROM FAILING TO FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
CORRECTLY. LADDERS AND HEIGHTS ARE INHERENTLY DANGEROUS AND MAY
CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH; HEED THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
1. For your safety, set up the ladder so the rungs are level from front to back and from side
to side.
2. To avoid pinching, keep clothing and body parts out of all moving mechanisms, including
hinge locks and outer ladder locks, and away from rungs when telescoping the outer
ladder assemblies over the inner ladder assembly.
3. Use extreme caution when using the ladder around electricity. Never let ladders of any
material come in contact with live electrical circuits.
4. For your safety, never exceed the weight limit of the ladder. Depending on the model,
your ladder has one of the following duty ratings:
a) 375 lb [170 kg] - Special Duty Type IAA (CSA Grade IAA)
b) 300 lb [136 kg] - Extra Heavy Duty Type IA (CSA Grade IA)
c) 250 lb [113 kg] - Heavy Duty Type I (CSA Grade I)
This information can be found on the NOTICE label attached to the ladder.
5. Keep all ladder rungs, ladder feet, platforms, and other standing and gripping surfaces
clean and free from foreign materials (i.e. mud, paint, ice, oil, etc.).
6. Never lean too far over the side of the ladder and keep both feet on the rungs at all times;
as a rule of thumb, keep your navel between the side rails.
7. Inspect ladder feet for wear; replace them when necessary.
8. Read all labels on the ladder before use. Replace labels if damaged or worn.
9. Never use ladder in high winds or storms.
10. Always face the ladder and use both hands when climbing up or down.
11. Inspect the ladder before each use. Never climb a damaged, bent or broken ladder. If you
need replacement parts, remove the ladder from service and contact our Customer
Experience Team at 800-453-1192. Destroy the ladder if it cannot be repaired.
12. Never spend long periods on a ladder without regular breaks.
