1. Check before use
- Make sure the ladder is in good condition, without cracks, deformations, or missing parts.
- Check that the steps are clean and non-slip.
- Check the stability of the feet and fittings.
2. Correct installation
- Place the ladder on a flat, stable, and non-slip surface.
- Avoid loose or unstable floors.
- Fully extend the ladder and lock the safety devices if present.
3. Safe usage
- Always face the ladder when climbing, using both hands to hold on.
- Do not lean too far to the sides to avoid losing balance.
- Do not exceed the last recommended step (usually the last usable step is indicated on the ladder).
- Do not carry heavy loads while climbing or descending.
4. Additional precautions
- Do not leave the ladder deployed unattended.
- Store the ladder in a dry place to avoid corrosion.
- If working at height, consider using a safety harness or appropriate protection.
