Ladders with wheels? #littlegiant #innovative #toolwatch #laddersafety

What happens here

While the wheels typically retract automatically, there are situations where you 'can retract it manually'. This manual retraction option is important for safety, particularly when setting up the ladder on a sloped surface or 'down the hill'. Manually retracting the wheels ensures the ladder remains stationary and does not 'roll down the hill' due to gravity, even before weight is applied. The exact mechanism for manual retraction may vary by model but typically involves a lever or button.

Goal: Manually retract wheels to ensure stability on sloped or uneven terrain.

What they say

Hide

You can't retract it manually so that it doesn't roll down the hill. But otherwise, that's nice to be able to scroll back.
