Ladders and Scaffolding

• Inspect every ladder before use.

• With an extension or straight ladder, make sure that the tops of both rails make solid contact with the wall.

• Make sure the spreader bar of a stepladder is fully extended and locked before you use it.

• Do not push or pull too hard on a scraper while on a ladder.

• Keep all ladders away from power lines.

• Place plywood under the legs of a ladder to ensure solid footing.
