IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

Before you get on any ladder, make sure it is posi-

tioned well away from any potential conductors...and

that it is completely stable and secure. Once you're on

the ladder, secure yourself to it following the practice

that applies to your work.

Every effort has been made to design this product with

your personal safety in mind. But every outside plant

tool is only as safe as its user...and that's you.

Don't take chances with your safety! Be sure you've

read and are completely familiar with all of these in-

structions and the safety practices that apply to the

installation before you use your E Ladder Support.

We can't be held responsible for any injury that occurs

to you if you fail to follow these instructions and your

company's practices thoroughly.

If you have any questions about any of these proce-

dures, please call us at 1-800-345-6009 (in AK, HI, PA

and outside the USA call 1-215-357-5500) or contact

your supervisor for further information before you start.

Special Precautions

Be sure to take these important precautions every time

you use your new E Ladder Support:

• Check your ladder and support each time before you

use them for cracks and breaks. If you see any, re-

port them to your supervisor and get a replacement.

• Make sure all equipment on both is working proper-

ly. Even if you only suspect that something isn't

right, use a replacement instead.

• Never have more than one worker on the ladder.

• When you're aloft, make sure your safety strap pass-

es through both D rings on your body belt, and the

ends are snapped onto the strand on either side of

you. This could be your last line of defense if the

support were to fall.
