You should visually inspect the ladder prior to assembly and use. Look at each part of

the ladder immediately after you receive the package from the shipper. Look for damage that might have
occurred during shipping. If damage is present, contact Vestil; DO NOT assemble or use the ladder
stand if you notice any damage to one or more of the steps or to any other structural element (step
weldment, back leg weldment, horizontal braces) of the ladder. Using the ladder stand despite weakness
of a structural component could cause the ladder to collapse and result in serious personal injuries. DO
NOT use your ladder stand if any of the hardware (bolts, nuts, etc.) is damaged. Contact Vestil to order
replacement parts. Additionally,
• DO NOT assemble the ladder by yourself. At least 2 persons are needed for assembly. Do not

participate in the assembly process if you have weight-lifting restrictions, back injuries or other
physical conditions that could make lifting the ladder dangerous.

• Review the safety guidelines on p. 5 before you attempt to assemble the ladder.

• Read the entire instruction manual before assembling the ladder stand; only assemble the ladder

stand if you fully understand the associated risks and the manufacturer-approved assembly
procedure discussed below.

• DO NOT assemble the ladder stand unless your employer has given you approval to do so.

• DO NOT deviate from the assembly instructions. To be safe for use, the product must be assembled

as directed.

• DO NOT modify the ladder stand in any way unless and until you receive written approval from Vestil.

• DO NOT use the ladder stand if either of the wheels is damaged. A damaged wheel may cause the

ladder stand to tip over while supporting personnel and/or material.

• ALWAYS use proper lifting techniques to minimize back strain if you must pick up ladder parts or

move the ladder.

• Any

unauthorized modification automatically voids the limited warranty. Contact Vestil to order

replacement parts.

• The ladder stand is designed for both indoor and outdoor use. However, the ladder stand should be

sheltered from the weather when not in use.

After accepting delivery of a new ladder stand, remove it from the packaging and confirm that all parts are
present and undamaged. Do not assemble the ladder if any of the components is damaged. Compare the
parts to the photographs and tabular data below; contact Vestil if the ladder as delivered is incomplete or
damaged.
