PLEASE BE ADVISED: Before assembling the Dormer system for the first time, it is highly
recommended that Installers familiarise themselves with the component parts and carry out a test
assembly and disassembly in a safe area away from the point of final installation. All component parts
detailed in the operating instructions must be used in the assembly of the system. Should a piece be
missing or appear defective do not continue to assemble and contact Easi-Dec Immediately.

With bent Legs and a straight back, lift the Platform firstly to waist
height, then using your arms to offer it to the roof and lift it into
position.

position of the handhold and the way the Claw Foot grips while
taking a second handhold.
Adjust the height by removing the two Leg Pins and Lifting the
Platform up the roof to the desired height and replace both Leg
Pins remembering to also replace the safety ‘R’ Clips provided.
Ensure the Platform is level.

Remove the top Pin and fit to the Back Leg at about eye level to
the Main Leg.
When fitting the Brace, position the foot as close to the wall as
possible without fouling the wall or touching the ground. Fit the Pin
and ‘R’ Clip.

and secure with the pin and ‘R’ Clip. Ideally a finger’s clearance
under them will ensure the Easi-Dec remains in contact with the
Roof.
The Ladder is placed against the Platform, extended 1 metre above
Platform level between the Ladder Restraints and sided to the right
to allow enough room to step through on the left hand side.
Foot the Ladder or use a suitable Ladder safety device, such as
Easi-Dec Ladder spurs shown in Fig 3. Climb the Ladder and Tie off
both sides with the Ladder Ties provided.
Positions the Left Guardrail over your shoulder, when climbing the
Ladder maintain three points of contact. REMEMBER: When fitting
the Guardrail to the Right hand side of the Platform carry up on the
Right shoulder.
Feed one arm through the top rung of the Ladder this provides a
handhold when offering the Guardrail into position. (NOTE: This is
why the Ladder needs to be extended above the platform by 1
metre to provide a handhold)
Fit the Right hand guardrail into the two front sockets and gently
ease the back of the Guardrail open. REMEMBER: Always have
your arm through the top rung of the Ladder when positioning
these guardrails.
