POSITIONING AND/OR ERECTING A TELESCOPIC LADDER
- A telescopic ladder in ladder position has to be positioned in such a way that the distance from the
foot of the telescopic ladder to the wall is approximately equal to a quarter of the operational length
of the ladder. The set-up angle will then be approximately 75° (figure 1 C).
- Always stand the telescopic ladder on a firm, stable, horizontal surface, which is not slippery. This will
ensure that the feet of the telescopic ladder cannot sink into the ground and/or slip away. Therefore,
do not place the telescopic ladder on tables, boxes, crates or other unstable surfaces, such as muddy
soil or loose sand.
- Position a telescopic ladder in such a way that each of its four points are adequately supported by
a firm bearing surface, therefore never against a window, against circular or narrow pillars, poles or
trees or against corners (figure 1D).
- Satisfy yourself that the telescopic ladder is sufficiently stable and if required, is secured to ensure it
cannot slip.
- A telescopic ladder may never be repositioned if somebody is standing on the ladder, or from a
position that is higher than the ladder.
- Take extra precautions if the telescopic ladder has to be positioned in front of a door opening, an
opening window or in a corridor, etc. Make sure that nobody can walk against or under the telescopic
ladder.
- Never position a telescopic ladder within a range of 2.5 m from non-insulated electrical components
or low-voltage installations and networks which are under live current. Never position an aluminium
telescopic ladder in the vicinity of components of high-voltage installations.
- Take care when using electrical equipment. Telescopic ladders conduct electric current. Always
take precautions so that a power cable cannot become trapped or become caught when climbing,
sliding or repositioning the telescopic ladder. Check beforehand that your tool's electrical cable is not
damaged.
- Telescopic ladders must always be positioned on their feet and not on the step/rung.
- Always position a telescopic ladder as close as possible to the work to be carried out.
- Do not operate the unlocking catches or the unlocking/locking buttons when someone is standing
on the telescopic ladder (figure 2 C, figure 2 D and figure 2F).
- Visually check that all steps/rungs are locked before climbing the telescopic ladder: this can be
checked through the position of the locking buttons below the rungs (figure 2 C) and the catches
(figure 2 D).
