ASSEMBLY

WARNING! Assembly of these types of ladders can be inherently dangerous. Please take all necessary precautions during the assembly process. Always use a separate ladder to finish assembly in high places. Never climb a ladder that is not completely assembled. Do not assemble or use a ladder with missing or damaged parts. Use proper lifting mechanics when assembling a ladder. Watch for overhead electrical hazards and obstructions.

STEP 1: FRAME ASSEMBLYNOTE: DO NOT tighten bolts until instructed to.NOTE: Back panel (F) has both round and slotted holes. The round holes are at the bottom, and the slotted holes are at the top (L1).

1. 1. Place the ladder stile (D) on the floor. Be sure to assemble on a protective surface so the finish does not get damaged. (See Figure 1)
2.  Using 3/8-16 x 1¼” hex head cap screws and self-locking nuts, bolt the top (slotted hole) of the back panel (F) to the insides of L1. (See Figure 1)
3.  Bolt the bottom (round hole) of the back panel (F) and back of the base panel (E) to the insides of L2.
4.  Bolt the front of the base panel (E) to the insides of L3. (See Figure 1)

STEP 2: HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL BRACE ASSEMBLYNOTE: DO NOT tighten bolts until instructed to.

1. Using (3) 3/8-16 x 1¼” hex head cap screws, locate horizontal brace (G) on the outside of L4 and L5.
2.  Locate the vertical brace (H) on the outside of L4 and L6.
3.  Start (2) self-locking nuts onto screws at L5 and L6.

WARNING! Never climb a ladder that is not completely assembled.

STEP 3: DIAGONAL BRACE ASSEMBLY

NOTE: DO NOT tighten bolts until instructed to.

1. Locate diagonal brace (I) on the inside of L4 using the existing screws from Step 2, #1, and #2. Start locknut. (See Figure 1)
2. Using the screw installed at Step 1, #2, locate another end of the diagonal brace (I) on the inside of L2 and start locknut.
3. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to another side.

STEP 4: INSTALL HANDRAILSNOTE: DO NOT tighten bolts until instructed to.

1. With a ladder on its side, install handrail (A) into the rear stile tubes. Use the rubber mallet as needed for mating parts. (See Figure 2, Step 1).
2. Clamp side handrails to the outside of stile tubes using detached handrail brackets and 3/8-16 x 2″ hex head cap screws, gray bushings, and self-
3. Repeat step 3 with the side handrail (B).

STEP 5: INSTALL REAR HANDRAIL BARS

1.  Detach the rear handrail bar (C) from the handrail.
2.  Insert notched bushing into each end of rear handrail bars (C). (See Figure 2, Step 3)
3.  Position rear handrail bars between mounting holes on the top part of side handrails using (4) 1/4-20 x 2¾” hex head cap screws. (See Figure 2, Step 3)

NOTE: You may now tighten all handrail bolts.

STEP 6: LEVEL LADDER

1.  Stand ladder upright on a level surface.
2.  Activate safe lock by stepping on the trip bar located in front of the first step.
3. This sets the ladder on the feet to level. 4. When steps are level, tighten all installed bolts.

NOTE: Do not proceed until the ladder is stable.
