  • Lock Cable (T): 1

Usage Features

The Smart Choice Ladder offers several features to ensure safe and convenient use:

• Single-Person Use: The ladder is designed for use by one person at a time, emphasizing safety.
• Face Ladder Rule: Users are instructed to face the ladder when entering and exiting the pool, promoting a safer posture.
• Solid Base Requirement: The ladder must be located on a solid base to ensure stability.
• Swimming Pool Specific: This ladder is intended solely for use as a swimming pool ladder.
• No Jumping/Diving: Strict warnings against jumping or diving from the ladder are provided to prevent accidents.
• Clearance Zones: Users are advised not to swim through, behind, or around the ladder or step system, ensuring clear passage and preventing entrapment.
• Adjustable Fit: The system allows for adjustment to different pool wall heights. In some configurations (e.g., Model 200740T), it may be necessary to cut the Adjustable Support Feet (C) or Comfort Incline Extensions, as well as the Adjustable Support Tubes (G), to ensure the Platform (B) rests flat and level on the pool top rail.
• Secure Installation: Ladder Secure Straps (I) are provided to firmly attach the assembly to the pool's top rail, preventing movement.
• Lift-N-Lock Feature: For enhanced safety and security when the entry system is not in use, the Outside Ladder Body (D) and Foot Extension Assembly (E) can be lifted and positioned onto the hooks of the Platform (B) and into slots on the Handrails (A). A Lock Cable (T) is included to secure the ladder in this position, although a padlock is not included. This feature helps prevent unauthorized access to the pool.
• Compatibility: The ladder is designed to integrate seamlessly with various step systems (Comfort Incline, Smart Step, Easy Entry Step), offering flexibility based on user preference and pool setup.
• Platform Stability: The Platform (B) is designed to rest flat and level directly on the pool top rail, providing a stable transition point.

Maintenance Features

While the manual primarily focuses on assembly, some aspects relate to maintenance and care:

• Component Check: Users are instructed to ensure all components and hardware are present before beginning assembly, which is a crucial step for proper maintenance and longevity.
• Secure Fastening: The assembly process emphasizes securing all parts with the specified hardware (bolts, nuts, screws, washers), which is essential for maintaining the structural integrity and safety of the ladder over time. Regular checks of these fastenings would be part of routine maintenance.
• Customer Service: The document provides contact information (888-333-1134) for requesting missing or damaged parts or hardware, facilitating easy replacement and repair to maintain the ladder's functionality and safety.
• Material Durability: Although not explicitly stated as a maintenance feature, the use of specific hardware types (e.g., #14 x 3/4" Tapping Screws, 3/8" x 4" Carriage Bolts) suggests the components are chosen for their durability and ability to withstand the pool environment, reducing the frequency of maintenance.
• Regular Inspection: The safety instructions, such as "Install ladder per manufacturer's instructions" and "Locate ladder on a solid base," imply that periodic inspection of the ladder's installation and base condition is necessary to ensure continued safe operation.
