6.1 Extending and setting up the ladder
1. Advance note:
Always extend the telescoping ladder from the lowest
extendable rung upwards; the telescoping ladder must
not be extended using a rung from the middle or upper part.
2. Place the collapsed ladder vertically on a firm level
surface and place one foot in the middle of the locked
ground rung (1st rung) in order to secure the ladder.
Grasp with both hands and carefully extend the rails
under the black retaining rings [E] of the 3rd rung [B]
(the rung of the lowest extendable section of the ladder)
until the whole section is completely extended and the
ladder rung is completely engaged.
Repeat this work step (the next extendable rung is the
4th rung from the bottom).
3. In order to ascend a ladder rung, the locking visual
guides [F] on the 2nd and 3rd rung must be completely
filled in GREEN.
• GREEN means:
The ladder rung is locked and can be ascended.
• RED or RED/GREEN means:
The ladder rung is not locked.
In addition, another locking visual guide [F-1] is
located underneath the ladder rung. When the ladder is
extended, this GREEN marking also indicates from below
that the ladder rung is safely locked.
4. Repeat this work step to extend the telescopic ladder (the
next extendable rung is the 5th rung from the bottom).
Then extend each additional ladder section (only one at a
time) until the desired ladder height is reached.
A block formation (group of unextended ladder rungs)
must only occur in the uppermost ladder section.
If necessary, the extended ladder must be kept horizontal
to extend the higher ladder sections.
Both locking visual guides [F] directly under each
extended section must be completely filled in GREEN, and
the GREEN markings [F-1] must be visible.
