Imprimir páginaUSE OF THE TELESCOPIC LADDER
Attention! If a telescopic ladder falls, immediately check if the ladder can be fully collapsed. If this is
not possible, do not use the ladder! Deformities may lead to breakages.
- Never load a telescopic ladder in excess of 150 kg (= a person climbing telescopic ladder including any
"baggage").
- When carrying out work, always keep both feet on a step/rung of the telescopic ladder. Never stand, for
example, with just one foot on the telescopic ladder and the other foot resting on a window frame. Never
reach or lean too far to the side when working on a telescopic ladder (max. 1 arm length). If the centre of
gravity is moved from the centre of the telescopic ladder, this can become unstable and can collapse (rule of
thumb: keep your navel between the uprights of the telescopic ladder). If necessary, reposition the telescopic
ladder more frequently.
- Never climb a telescopic ladder any higher than the red rung or never higher than the 4th rung from the top
(the maximum safe standing position).
- Telescopic ladders may only be used for light work and for short periods of time.
- If there is an unavoidable risk of direct contact with electricity, do not use this telescopic ladder!
- Do not use a telescopic ladder outdoors in high winds (force 6) or other unfavourable weather conditions.
- Never leave a telescopic ladder unsupervised that has already been set up for use. Think about (playing)
children.
- When possible, close windows and doors (not emergency exits) in the immediate vicinity of the work.
- Climb the telescopic ladder when you have at least one hand free. When ascending/descending the
telescopic ladder, hold on properly. This should always be done while facing the telescopic ladder. Holding a
rung with at least one hand provides increased security should you slip or miss your footing.
- Do not use a telescopic ladder as a bridge (section).
- Wear sensible footwear to avoid slipping and/or painful knocks (no slippers, high-heeled shoes or clogs).
- Do not stand on a telescopic ladder for long periods without taking regular breaks.
- Tiredness is a risk!
- The telescopic ladder in ladder position should protrude by at least one metre above the required standing
or step-over height.
- Any tools that are used while standing on a telescopic ladder have to be light and easy to use.
- Avoid any work that could cause sideways pressure on the telescopic ladder, such as drilling into hard stone.
This can cause the telescopic ladder to tip over. While working, hold onto the telescopic ladder with at least
one hand, or take precautions if it is not possible to hold on.
- No more than one person should stand on a telescopic ladder at the same time.
- Never reposition the telescopic ladder/folding ladder while somebody is standing on it.
