The Renovator Transforma Ladder
Introducing the
Please read the Instructions in your Manual before using your Transforma Adjustable Ladder for the first time. Safety should be forefront when using any ladder and the Transforma Ladder is one of the strongest, safest ladders you can own for 2 reasons.
- We use aircraft-grade aluminium for the stiles (the sides that hold the rungs) as it is rigid and has an excellent strength to weight ratio.
- The rungs of the Inner ladder are punched and slotted into the stiles whilst the Outer ladder rungs are box welded on. Unlike rivets they will never loosen, resulting in rock-solid stability that will last you a lifetime.
Safety Tips
Please review the comprehensive list of Safety Tips in the Manual. A helpful mnemonic is C.A.L.L.
- Check condition of ladder
- Angle of 4 to 1 or 75° when in extension ladder format
- Level set up
- Length is correct
You cannot be too safe when using a Ladder, using the Transforma is a good start. Whilst the Transforma can be separated into 2 trestles and combined with a plank for use as a scaffolding system do not use a single trestle as a step Ladder.
Configuring the Transforma
Although depending on the model it can transform into 24 or 35 different configurations, the Transforma Ladder can store in an amazingly small space. To open the Transforma out into the initial A-frame is simply a matter of applying pressure to the 2 blue Palm buttons to unlock the hinge.
To adjust the height of the Transforma as an extension ladder, a taller A-Frame or unequal sides for a stair-type situation is equally easy by using the 4 Lock Assemblies located on the stiles of the Transforma.
Detailed Instructions on configuring your Transforma for the many options available to you are found on page 11of your Manual.
Using the Safety Accessories
The Safety Accessories have been designed specifically for the Transforma Ladder and are not intended to be used with any other Ladder.
The Work Platforms give a flat surface to stand on which is more comfortable than standing on a rung. Refer to Page 22 for full instructions.
The Adjustable Wall Stand-Off allows the ladder to either span an area e.g. a window or hold the ladder off the building face to give better access to guttering etc. They can also be used to span a width of hedging to give a more stable area to lean the Ladder against. Full Instructions are provided with the accessory.
The Leg-levellers allow the Transforma to be used on uneven surfaces so that the Ladder is in the correct level position. Full Instructions are provided with the accessory.
Care and Maintenance
Oil the hinge mechanism and lock assemblies with light machine oil every six months and before long-term storage. Lubricate more often as use dictates e.g. use in dusty environments, and during extreme weather conditions.
Store your Transforma in a dry location out of the weather. Keep the side-rails and rungs clean and free of debris so the ladder will extend and move easily. Keep the hinge mechanism clear of dirt, salt spray, or other contaminants that could obstruct proper operation.
To ensure safety, replace the inner and outer feet when required. Check all parts and components of the ladder to make sure they are operating safely and correctly before each use.
