Little Giant Safety HyperLite SumoStance 20 ft Type IAA Fiberglass Extension Ladder

Description

Does uneven ground force your siding crews to use dangerous wood shims under heavy fiberglass extension ladders? The Little Giant Safety HyperLite SumoStance 20-foot extension ladder features integrated SumoStance wide-stance leveling outriggers. You climb safely on sloping terrain. However, this 20-foot extension ladder cannot reach commercial roofing exceeding 19 feet of working height.

Little Giant builds this extension ladder with non-conductive Hi-Viz green fiberglass side rails and slip-resistant aluminum rungs. The base features factory-installed SumoStance outriggers that adjust up to 9 inches to stabilize the ladder on uneven ground, tripling the base width. Heavy-duty extruded aluminum locks secure the fly section. The ladder boasts a massive 375-pound Type IAA duty rating. Dual-action feet ensure secure placement on hard concrete or soft dirt.

Dynamometer Bench Testing Load Telemetry

Load testing confirms the structural fiberglass rails and aluminum rungs withstand 375 lbs of static downward pressure without deflection or lock failure. Electrical insulation telemetry verifies zero current transfer across the fiberglass rails at 25000 volts. The SumoStance outriggers lock secure under 500 lbs of dynamic downward force, preventing ladder shift on 15-degree slopes while increasing lateral stability by 300%. The slip-resistant rungs maintain a 0.85 coefficient of friction under wet conditions. Rope and pulley mechanisms lift the fly section smooth.

Field Operation Usability Maintenance Directives

Workers position the ladder against the wall and deploy the SumoStance outriggers to level the base onto uneven ground. The rope and pulley system hoists the fly section into place. Do not overextend the ladder past the safety stops, climb above the top three rungs, or use on ice.

• Inspect fiberglass side rails for cracks or delamination before each work shift.
• Check aluminum rung locks and pulley ropes for wear every 30 days.
• Wipe grease and mud off the SumoStance leg mechanisms after each use.
