NOTE For multifunction ladders reference should be made to the manufacturer's instructions. SIST EN 1147:2010

Figure 1 — Width between stiles 5.2.2 The maximum width between stiles on hook ladders shall be 250 mm. 5.3 Mass The mass for different types of ladders shall not be more than:  25 kg for a ladder operated by one person;  15 kg for hook ladders;  8 kg/m of overall length for all other ladders. 6 Rungs 6.1 The distance between rungs shall remain constant throughout a ladder except where the hook is attached on a hook ladder:  for hook ladders the distance between rungs shall be a maximum of 365 mm and a minimum of 280 mm except for the rungs supporting the hook where the distance may be reduced to a minimum of 180 mm;  for all other ladders the distance between rungs shall be a maximum of 305 mm and a minimum of 250 mm. 6.2 Rungs shall have a flat or arched non-slip tread surface. Where the non-slip tread surface is a rung covering, the covering shall not move (see also Annex O). 6.3 Roof ladder rungs shall have a flat or arched non-slip surface on all sides. SIST EN 1147:2010

Figure 2 — Position of adjacent rung centres 6.6 Rungs shall be fitted with their tread surface perpendicular to the stile axis (see Figure 2). 6.7 For hook and roof ladders, the minimum clearance between the underside of a rung and a flat surface roof or wall shall be 50 mm in the user position (see Figures 3a) and 3b)) (see also Annex O).

b) Stand-off bracket

NOTE 1 Pawls should be visible from the ground and when climbing the ladder. NOTE 2 Pawls should preferably be independent but may be linked if desired. 8 Fittings 8.1 Hooks Hooks, where fitted, shall conform to the following. SIST EN 1147:2010

Figure 4 — Measurement between contact points 8.2 Feet The parts of all types of ladders in contact with the ground shall have non-skid fitments. 8.3 Wheels The fitting of wheels to ladders shall be allowed where these are considered necessary for the safe and satisfactory operation of the ladder. NOTE Where wheels are fitted, they should have a resilient solid contact surface, should be able to withstand a temperature (in air) of 80 °C without malfunctioning and should be fitted to the ladder in such a way as to enable the ladder to roll up or roll down a wall or roof. 9 Stabilizing means All ladders over 11 m in length shall be fitted with stabilizing means, which may, for example, be in the form of a pole (see also Annex O). 10 Poles Poles designed to form an integral part of the stabilizing means and/or used for handling the ladder into position shall have a non-slip grip surface extending from the bottom of the pole (closed where telescopic) for a distance of 2 000 mm. Poles designed to form an integral part of the stabilizing means shall have non-slip feet at the bottom of each pole. NOTE Where poles are
