Has anyone had any experience with collapse or failure on ladder jacks?
I use type1 250# ladders, which is what I understand to be the minimum. It is my fear that a ladder rung will snap before the jack does.
It's hard to get specifics online, but qualcom implies no more than 250# per jack....with my belt loaded up that's damn near me.... then the plank, other guy....box of coils, some hardi shingle...
laying awake tonight thinking about it.
How can you they say 250#, but mention a plank and 2 people...
So what is really safe?
