Question:
Hi Can you used this ladder as a simple extension ladder ie without unfolding it spreading it as an A Frame like you can with a conventional A frame ladder eg Werner A frame step ladder?

Hey Jo, yes as long as the little dots are green in the indicator window when you go to use the ladder, you can use it in the way you're describing.
