Ladder Safety

* Always inspect your ladder before use. Never climb on a damaged ladder, or one that is missing parts.

* Do not leave your ladder set up and unattended if children are present.

* Always face the ladder rungs when climbing up or down. Keep your body centered between the side rails.

* Use both hands when climbing.

* Do not overreach. Do not "walk" the ladder when standing on it.

* Do not stand, climb, or sit on the top or pail shelf of the ladder.
