General Principles
You must be familiar with the opera-
on of this product prior to use. This
easy Trow Escape ladder is intended for
use as a means of escape from residen-
al buildings. Other uses could result in
serious injury or death. It is strongly
recommended that you pracce
mounng the ladder for deployment as
shown in Fig.1 and Fig.2 in the “step by
step instrucons for use of this ladder”
secon. During pracces DO NOT PULL
THE RELEASE STRAP TO DEPLOY THE
LADDER. Your ladder had been care-
fully assembled to ensure proper
deployment when needed.
Important! Do not deploy into flames.
This ladder is designed for one me use
only and should only be deployed in the
event of a home emergency. Discard
aer single use. Repeated use of this
ladder could result in serious injury or
death.
In normal use it is possible that this
ladder may scratch, dent or blemish
the exterior surface of a house. The
ladder is nor recommended for use
with storm windows or other windows
that do not open fully.
Care should be taken to ensure that the
ladder is not used from any window
that is above obstrucons I.e. a
conservatory. If possible, deployment
of the ladder should be from a window
that is not above another window (risk
of damage to lower and/or surrounding
windows). In no event will our com-
pany or it’s agents be liable to the
purchaser, or any other persons, for
indirect, consequenal, incidental or
any other damages that may occur
during the use of this ladder. We
recommend replacing the ladder every
5 years to ensure opmum strength
and performance. In the event that the
ladder is deployed in an emergency,
you must discard and replace immedi-
ately. The ladder is intended to supple-
ment (not replace) the more important
fire protecon principles of fire drills,
emergency exit plans, smoke alarms,
fire exnguishers etc.
Do not store in direct sunlight or at
high temperatures (above 50 degrees
cengrade). Maximum load 450kg
(70,9 stone) and a maximum of 3
people may use the ladder at the same
me. This ladder is not a toy and
should not be used by young children
unless supervised by an adult.
1. Close the doors to the room before
opening the escape window – this
will avoid intensifying the fire.
2. Open the ladder hook and adjust
the appropriate width (fig. 1.)
3. place the ladder hooks over the sill
with the ladder hanging on the
outside of the building (fig. 2.)
4. Pull the release strap to deploy the
ladder (fig. 3.).
5. carefully exit the window, feet first,
onto the ladder. Hold the ladder
hooks for support and extra
stability.
6. When descending the ladder, keep
your body close to the ladder to
maximize stability. Only carry
children on the ladder when it is
absolutely necessary.
7. in family escape situaons, a
parent should exit first to stabilize
the ladder during the descent of
children or elderly adults.
8. be careful not to break glass in
adjacent windows when
descending the ladder.
