SET UP & USE - THE WRONG WAY
Never drop or
throw ladders,
doing so can
damage or weaken
them and cause
serious injury to
others.
Never place or use
a ladder on slippery
surfaces or on
uneven ground
that may cause an
accident.
Never use any
ladder that has
been exposed to
fire, acids, caustics
or other strong
chemicals. These
may damage or
weaken the ladder.
Don’t move the
ladder with materials
on it. They may fall
and cause damage
or an injury.
Never position the
ladder where it
blocks foot traffic,
work vehicles, or
where it could be
bumped by a door.
If it is necessary
to use a ladder in
front of a door,
lock or barricade the
door and put
up a caution sign.
Never leave a
ladder unattended.
This may present
a hazard to others
in the area.
Do not allow
children to play or
climb on ladders.
