Never climb a closed
stepladder. It may
slip out from under
you.
If you need to
adjust the ladder
throughout the
course of the job,
you should remove
your tools or use a
proper accessory
to secure them in
place.
Werner tops are built
to handle a variety
of tools
for this purpose.

The pail shelf may

to stand or sit on
them.
Don’t climb on
the back of a
single sided
stepladder. It is not
designed to carry
a person’s weight.
Doing so can
damage the
