Use Ladder only in positions shown

An Important Note on Safety

We strongly recommend you use the ClimbTek Scaffold Platform Board accessory when using the ladder in any of the approved scaffold positions.  If you choose not to purchase the convenient self-storing Scaffold Platform Boards, you must first attach a working surface if using the ladder in any of the approved scaffold positions.  Do not attempt to use your Climbtek ladder in any of the approved scaffold positions without a construction grade 2 ft x 12" plank placed over the rungs and between the side rails.  The plank must fill the entire work level and be secured to prevent movement during use.  Never stand or step onto any overhang of this plank.
