1. SAFETY
Before use:
a)
Check your physical fitness before using a ladder.
Certain pathologies or medicines, overindulgence in alcohol or
consumption of drugs can represent a danger.
b)
When transporting a ladder on the roof rack of your vehicle or
in a lorry, make sure that it is secured firmly to avoid causing any
damage.
c)
Before using the ladder for the first time, check it to ensure
that all its parts are in good condition and operate correctly.
d)
Before use, check the ladder visually to ensure that it has not
been damaged and can be used in complete safety.
e)
Regular checks are essential for all users.
f)
Check that the ladder is suitable for the job to be done.
g)
Do not use a damaged ladder.
h)
Clean the ladder of any foreign substances such as wet paint,
mud, oil or snow.
i)
Before using the ladder for professional purposes, risks must
be assessed depending on the legislation of the country in use.
Positioning and Erecting Ladders:
a)
Ladders must be put up in the right position, i.e. at the correct
angle (inclined at about 1 in 4), with the steps or rungs parallel
for a leaning ladder, or completely open in the case of a trestle
ladder.
b)
Any ladder equipped with locking systems; the locks must be in
the fully locked position.
c)
Ladders must be placed on flat regular and firm surface.
d)
Leaning ladders must always be placed on a flat solid surface
and be stabilized before use, for example by using ties or any
other suitable device for ensuring their stability.
e)
Ladders must never be repositioned from a point high-up.
f)
When installing a ladder take account of any possible risks of
collision, e.g. collisions with pedestrians, vehicles or doors.
If possible, secure any doors (other than emergency exits) and
windows on the site.
g)
Identify all electrical risks on the work-site, e.g. overhead lines or
any other bare electrical equipment.
h)
Ladders must rest firmly on their treads and not be on rungs or
steps.
i)
Ladders must not be placed on any slippery surfaces (e.g. ice,
shiny surfaces or surfaces clearly covered with foreign
substances) unless other effective means have been taken to
avoid the ladder slipping. Otherwise, make sure that all dirty or
contaminated support surfaces have been adequately cleaned.

safety system (for example, a tie or use of a suitable stabilizing
device).

Do not use a trestle ladder to get up to a higher level.
e)
Do not stand on the top three steps or rungs of a leaning ladder.

when on a ladder.
