FOR THE
TRANSFORMA LADDER SYSTEM
PART ONE
Description - Transforma Ladder System
A. The Transforma ladder is a multi-purpose ladder system combining three core components.
One inner ladder unit with two outer ladder units which slide and lock over the inner ladder
unit.
1. The inner ladder has a central locking hinge that allows the Transforma Ladder to be set up in
a variety of ways, namely:
a. A-frame Position
b. Extension Position
c. Step Level Position
d. Scaffolding Trestle Position
SAFETY PRECAUTION: ONLY USE THE TRANFORMA 24 120KG LADDER IN THE
A-FRAME AND SCAFFOLDING TRESTLE CONFIGURATIONS WITH THE SPREADER
INSTALLED TO BRACE THE LADDER. REFER TO PAGE 15.
2. Locking assemblies on the two outer ladder units allow the telescoping and height adjustment
of the outer ladder sections up and down the inner ladder unit. This mechanism locks into
the rungs of the inner ladder unit, allowing adjustment at both ends of the ladder.
B. A table of the working heights for the Transforma 24 & 35 models is as follows:
C. High grade aluminium is used to make the inner and outer ladder side rails.
1 Both the inner ladder and the outer ladder units use slip-resistant aluminium.

PART TWO.
Using the Transforma Ladder System
The Transforma Ladder System has
two mechanical components:
A. The adjustable hinge found at the top of the
ladder when it is in the storage position, allows
youtorotatethelegsandreconguretheladder.
This hinge rotates and locks into these three
positions. (See Figures A-1, A-2, and A-3).
1. Unlock the hinges by pushing both Palm
Buttons straight in until they stay in the open
position. (See Figures A-4 and A-5).
a. NOTE - Any pressure on the hinge
lock pins may make it
difculttounlockthehinge.
Relieve the pressure by
simply jiggling one half of
the ladder back and forth
until the hinge lock pins can
move freely.
b. NOTE - DO NOT USE TOOLS TO
FORCE THE HINGE LOCK in or
out as this will cause permanent
damage to the hinge mechanism.
When the holes are aligned correctly
it should only take light pressure to
unlock the hinges.

To reset the ladder to the storage position,
use the above procedure but in reverse. The
hinges lock automatically at the A-frame
position to prevent damage to the ladder
or injury to the user. Take care not to
let the full weight of the ladder collapse
uncontrollably onto the hinge lock as you
change the ladder from the extension to
A-frameconguration.Disengagethehinge
locks in the A-frame position and return the
ladder to its storage position.
SAFETY PRECAUTION:

4. Next, change the ladder
into the extension posi-
tion by pushing straight
in on the palm buttons of
both hinges (See Figures
A-4 and A-5). Rotate
the ladder halves until
the hinge locks snap into
their locked position
(See Figure A-8).

B. Four Leg Lock Assemblies make up the second mechanical component of the ladder.
These allow you to adjust the height of the ladder.
(See Figure B-1).

C. Using the A-frame Positions
1. Unlock both hinge locks. (See Figures A-4 & A-5)
2. While the ladder is in the storage position, pull out the four Lock Assemblies from the
rung holes and rest them on the outside ladder rail.
(See Figures C-1 and C-2).
3. Raise the inner ladder to the required height.
SAFETY PRECAUTION:
READ THE WARNING STAMPED BELOW
EACH LOCK ASSEMBLY
4. At the required height align the nearest inner and outer rung holes.
5. With the inner and outer ladder aligned hold the ladder in one hand and re-insert the
opposite Lock with the other hand.
6. Change hands and re-insert the other Lock Assemblies.
(See Figure C-3).
7. Pull the ladder halves apart until the hinges lock into place and the ladder stands in the
A-Frame position.
8. Insert the work platform as a spreader to brace the ladder. (120KG MODEL ONLY)
9. To reset the ladder to the storage position, reverse the procedures and position as seen
in Figure A-1.
SAFETY PRECAUTION:
ALWAYS HOLD THE INNER LADDER WHENEVER CHANGING THE LEG
LOCK ASSEMBLIES OTHERWISE IT WILL SLIDE & HIT THE GROUND.
DO NOT USE THE OUTER OR INNER SECTIONS OF THE LADDER AS A
SEPARATE STEPLADDER.
D. Using the Extension Ladder Position
1. From the storage position, unlock the hinges (as shown in Figures A-4 and A-5) and
rotate the legs until both hinges lock into place at the extension position. (See Figure A-7)
2. NOTE:ThehingewillrstlockintotheA-frameposition,unlockthehingesagainand

1. Adjust ladder to required height (refer
to adjusting the height of the ladder
for use in the A-frame position).
2.Adjusttheladderlegstotthe
staircase. Open the ladder by pulling
the two ladder halves apart until both
hinge lock pins snap into place.
(See Figure E-1)
3. Unlock the Lock Assemblies on the upper half of the ladder.
Hold the outer ladder then walk backwards allowing the ladder
to extend to the required height. Extend the lower half of the
ladder if more height is required. (See Figure D-1)
Figure D-1
4. To stow the ladder from its extension position, reverse the above
procedure, starting with the ladder base.
5. NOTE: Always hold the inner ladder securely when unlocking
the lock assemblies and adjusting the ladder height.
DO NOT USE THE OUTER OR INNER SECTIONS OF THE
LADDER AS A SEPARATE STEPLADDER.
DO NOT USE THE INNER SECTION WHEN SEPARATED
FROM THE OUTER SECTIONS IN THE EXTENSION
LADDER POSITION.

F. Scaffolding Trestle Instructions
1. Pull the entire inner ladder assembly out
of the outer ladder railings and set them
down side by side (See Figure F-1).
4. Hold the two outer ladder bases so
their rungs face outwards and spread
the footings apart to form an A-frame
position. (See Figure F-4).
3. Gather both of the outer ladder railings
together.
(See Figure F-3).
2. Open the inner ladder assembly until the
hinges lock into the A-frame position.
This is one half of the trestles needed for
the scaffolding facility (See Figure F-2).
