RECORD OF SATISFACTORY CONDITION (THE “RECORD”)
After assembling the ladder and before putting it into service, generate a record of its condition. Take
photographs and/or videos of the ladder that clearly show each of the rung brackets, rungs, rubber pads,
hooks, the junctions of the upper and lower ladder sections, and all fasteners (bolts and lock nuts) and
labels. Collect all photographs, videos, and any other records produced in a single file. This file is a record
of the ladder in satisfactory condition. Compare the results of all inspections to this RECORD to determine
whether the ladder remains in satisfactory condition. Do not use the ladder unless it is in satisfactory
condition. Purely cosmetic changes, like damaged paint or powdercoat, are not changes from
satisfactory condition. However, touchup paint should be applied as soon as damage occurs. Left
untreated, exposed metal will rust and rust could eventually compromise the integrity of the rusted
area(s).
INSPECTING & MAINTAINING THE TANK LADDER
Inspections and repairs should only be performed by qualified persons. Compare the results of each
inspection to the RECORD OF SATISFACTORY CONDITION (the “RECORD”). Do not use the ladder unless all
parts are in satisfactory condition. Replace parts that are not in satisfactory condition before using the
ladder again. DON’T GUESS! If you have any questions about the condition of your ladder, speak with
TECHNICAL SERVICE personnel. The phone number is provided on the cover page of this manual. Never
make temporary repairs of damaged or missing parts. Only use manufacturer-approved replacement
parts. DO NOT continue to use the ladder if damage cannot be repaired.
BEFORE EACH USE
Inspect the ladder for any sustained damage such as impact/collision damage, unusual wear,
deterioration, or corrosion. Look for loose connections. Tighten all loose connections. If any lock nut is
removed from its bolt, it must be replaced with a new lock nut. DO NOT use the ladder if there are obvious
problems with it even if inspection personnel have not inspected the unit.
REGULAR INSPECTIONS —AT LEAST ONCE PER MONTH
Inspect the following items. Replace all parts not in satisfactory condition before returning the ladder to
service.
Rungs, rung mounting brackets, and extension mounting brackets (refer to FIG. 2 on p. 4): Each rung
should be dry and clean, i.e. free of grease and other debris that might make it slippery. Confirm the
satisfactory condition of each rung, each rung mounting bracket, and each weld between a rung
mounting bracket and a side rail. Check the rungs, brackets, and welds for warps, cracks, rust, corrosion,
and other forms of damage or deterioration.
Hook arms: Confirm that hooks retain their original shape. The hook must be sound, i.e. without cracks,
warps, etc.
Rubber pads: Inspect the rubber pad attached to the end of each hook. The pad should be securely
attached to the end of its hook. If a foot is significantly worn, torn, or if the end of the hook has pressed
into or through the pad material, remove the pad and install a new replacement.
Siderails: Check the side rails. Both rails must be straight and rigid. Pay particular attention to rung
attachment points for warps, cracks, rust or corrosion, or other forms of damage or deterioration.
Surface finish: Examine the surface coating for damage. Remove rust from areas where the coating is
damaged. Apply touchup paint to those areas.
Labels: All of the labels must be intact, easily readable from a reasonable distance, and applied where
shown in the LABELING DIAGRAM on p. 7.
Fasteners (bolts, nuts, pins): Check the fasteners used to connect upper and lower ladder sections.
Check the areas around bolt holes for warps, cracks, etc. Replace all fasteners that are damaged before
using the ladder again. If a lock nut has been partially or completely unfastened, replace it with a new
lock nut.
Maintenance: in addition to correcting issues discovered during inspections, maintain the ladder as
described below.
Clean the ladder to remove dirt and grime, especially from step surfaces.
Tighten all fasteners (only applies to models with two ladder sections: NTAL-10 & NTAL-10-HDG; NTAL-12
and NTAL-12-HDG; NTAL-15 and NTAL-15-HDG)
Lubricate the axle as necessary for the wheels to rotate freely.
Apply touchup paint wherever the finish is chipped.
