when using a ladder on a
hard or smooth surface, what
extra precautions can you
take to secure the base of
the ladder?
choose an option below
choose a ladder with non-
skid feet and spurs, and
have a coworker hold the
ladder.
use a ladder equipped
with the proper
attachments designed to
level the feet of the
ladder.
Non-skid feet/spurs prevent slipping on smooth surfaces, and having a coworker hold the base adds direct stability for hard/smooth surfaces. The other option focuses on leveling, which addresses uneven ground rather than securing on hard/smooth surfaces.
