For heavy-duty jobs, nothing
beats the Super Duty
Type 1AA Little Giant Ladder.
When you need industrial-strength,
only one ladder will
dothe Little Giant Type 1AA. Its government rated
to a whopping 375 pounds, so you know it can stand up
to even the most demanding applications.
And because its a Little
Giant, the Type 1AA gives you
the advantages of traditional A-frame ladders, extension
ladders, stepladders and even scaffoldingall in one
convenient package.
|
|
Safety
The Little Giant is designed to be the safest ladder on
the planet. Since its adjustable, the Little Giant can
be used safely on stairs, ramps, curbs, docks or other
uneven surfaces.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Strength
The Little Giant is made of heavy-wall, 6005-T5
aluminumthe very same material used in aerospace
construction. So its ultra-strong while remaining light
and portable.
In fact, The Little Giant Type 1AA is government-rated
to hold up to 375 pounds, but has survived brutal stress
testing of up to 1200 pounds with absolutely no
structural failure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Little
Giant Type 1AA Features:
* Heavy-wall aircraft-grade
aluminum construction
* Rated to hold up to 375 lbs.
* Combines 24 different ladders into on convenient system
* Lightweight and portable
* Complies with all applicable OSHA ANSI A14.2
standards
* Includes a full Lifetime Warranty
|
|
|
|
|
Versatility
No other ladder gives you the versatility of a Little
Giant. Independent tests prove the Little Giant will
replace 60-70% of all portable ladders currently being
manufactured.
When you buy a Little Giant, youre not just getting one
ladder. Youre getting 24 different ladders combined to
make the worlds most versatile ladder system. |

A-Frame Ladder
With a simple click of the patented hinge, the Little Giant can be used
as a
traditional A-Frame ladder. |

Because it's adjustable in one-foot increments, the Little Giant allows
one side
of the ladder to be extended allowing safe use on uneven surfaces like
staircases,
curbs or docks. |

For large projects the Little Giant easily converts to a stable extension
ladder allowing you to reach rooftops, tree limbs and more with ease. |

Scaffolding
Since the Little Giant pulls apart to form two scaffold trestles, you just
add the Little Giant work plank (sold separately) to form a convenient scaffolding
system. |

A. The Hinge - located
at the top of the ladder when it is in storage position, permits you to
alter the shape of the ladder.
The hinge locks in the following positions (See Figures A-1, A-2, and
A-3). |

straight in on the Palm Button until it stays in the open (unlocked) position
on both
hinges (See Figures A-4 and A-5). |

a.
NOTE - If there is pressure on hinge lock pins it will be difficult to unlock
the hinge. To relieve pressure,
simply adjust one half of the ladder back and forth until hinge lock pins
move without force. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
b.
NOTE - DO NOT FORCE HINGE LOCK in or out with any tools as it will cause
permanent damage to
the hinge mechanism. It should never require more than light pressure to
unlock the hinge if the holes are
properly aligned. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.
You may now open the ladder to the A-frame position by pulling the two ladder
halves apart until both hinge lock
pins snap into the A-frame locked position. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.
Now place the ladder into the extension position by again pushing straight
in on the palm buttons of both hinges
(See Figures A-4 and A-5). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Rotate
either side of the ladder until the hinge locks snap into their locked position. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To
restore the ladder to the storage position, reverse the above procedure.
The hinge lock will lock automatically at
the A-frame configuration to prevent damage to the ladder or injury to the
user. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use
caution and do not let the full weight of the ladder fall on the hinge lock
as the ladder folds from extension to
A-frame configuration. Disengage the hinge locks in the A-frame position
and return the ladder to its storage position. |

B.
The Lock Tab Assemblies- The second mechanical component of the ladder
system is the LOCK TAB
ASSEMBLY. There are four of these on each ladder. These permit you to change
the height of the ladder (See
figure B-1 and C-1). |

1.
Unlock both hinge locks (See figures A-4 & A-5).
2. With the ladder in the storage position and while holding the inner ladder
assembly firmly in place, pull the four
Lock Tab Assemblies out of the rung holes of the inner ladder and rest them
on the side of the outer ladder rail
(See figures C-1).
3. Raise the inner ladder up to the desired height.
4. At the desired height align the outer holes with the nearest rung hole
of the inner ladder assembly. |

Holding the inner and outer ladder at the aligned height with one hand,
reinsert the opposite Lock Tab Assemblies
into the rung holes with the other hand.
6. Alternate hands and perform the same operation with the other Lock Tab
Assemblies (See figure C-2). |

7.
Open the ladder to the A-frame configuration by pulling the ladder halves
apart until the hinges lock into place
(See figure A-2 and A-4).
8. To return the ladder to the storage position, reverse the procedures
and position as seen in Figure A-1. |
