@@BrosFOURRSpeed Both times that you had the ladder in the extension ladder config, You had the wheels on the ground. That's unsafe, It's best to have the wheels on the top.
@@RhysLoaney obviously I was focused on filming and talking to show everything. It like I said and actually showed in the beginning of the video, the wheels and levelers go on the ground..
Do you know of a good standoff that can also be used to hook to the roof just over the gutters? I was looking at the EPIC ladder version but it can't be retrofit to the M26 leveler. They have another little giant standoff but it's feet aren't really meant to rest on the roof.
They are great but exceedingly fragile. I bought and returned 2 before finding one that wasn’t damaged. Definitely keep your receipt and fully extended it in the parking lot before leaving the point of sale.
The leveler should be on the ground in order it should be level. The wheel should at the roofline not on the grass when extended straight up. You were too focused on in doing the video and forget to mention the safety part
@@xrpxtrariceplease2811 I am not. Its too hard or impossible to use fully extended. Old fashioned extension ladder easier to use and will get in more locations if trees, air conditioning unit, etc around.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed It is a real bear in the fully extended mode and not possible to use in some locations where a regular extension ladder can be used. I am 65 and have a real tough time with it in fully extended mode.. I'm not going to do that again. And it wobbles a lot. An extension ladder is much easier to get up there with the rope pull. If there is a tree in the way of putting up the fully extended ladder the way they show how to use it, forget it. A regular extension ladder with the rope pull would do that job easily at my house. I also have shrubbery, central air unit, etc in the way of putting the little giant against the house to lift it, but those things do not get in the way with regular extension ladder. You are warned. I wish someone would have warned me. I love it on painting along stair ways of course.
@@martinmengel any extension ladder in the full position is hard and heavy. That’s not specific to this one ladder. It weights a bit more, but I have a 30ft extension ladder that’s just as hard to use fully extended..I don’t agree with any of that, but use what you are comfortable with. I can easily extend the ladder and then raise it up. Branches, etc would get in the way of any ladder if positioned wrong.. I feel way more confident in this ladder with the wide base, much more sturdy and doesn’t wobble at all.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Like everything, both have advantages and disadvantages. I have an extension ladder and know its heavy. But I find it safer for working up high and getting the ladder into position, and easier to work with for high work in areas where the little giant ladder can't be placed safely. That walking back hand over hand is hard for me (it freaked wears me out). I'm not weak at 65 years old,, but would be easier if I was 30-years younger. In some specific cases it is impossible to use where I can safely use my extension ladder. I like your video though.
I slapped my forehead when I saw you fully extend it laying on the ground. That’s not how you use this ladder at all. You use your muscles to pull up on it
@@tommykittle2432 work smarter, not harder…do it the way you want…this makes it so much easier…you can do it however you want.. Also when the extension ladder is in the shortest position, you’d have to be well over 6ft tall to extend the upper half, so..
The wheels go up in extension mode. That way the tool box is under a rung and you won't step on it. Levelers to the ground that way too.
Yeah, the levelers go on the ground. I showed that..

@@landonwade7449 yeah, you didn’t see me already address that and say that? Even said that in the video..
Perhaps the Wife will be assigning various altitude inclined chores. Be safe.
lol, it’ll come in handy!
Super flexible. Makes sense with your two story house.
It’s very helpful for sure!
It’s very sketchy when doing the full extension and I’m a big guy
Any ladder at full extension can have that feeling, especially high up.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed I meant trying to get it up when it’s full extension. It’s heavy
Ladder itself is sturdy
@@Andre-lr7ri it is heavy!
@@Andre-lr7ri yeah.

I’m not sure, I haven’t looked into anything like that.
Awesome ladder, we have one!
Very cool! It’s great!
The Epic model by Little Giant is a good and versatile ladder with extra features.
Cool, I’m sure it’s another good option. I’m happy with this one.
Thank you! Have the same ladder, love it.
Great! Glad you enjoy it!
Will they be coming out with a fiberglass version this way it could be lighter?
No idea!
I hope. and it would be safe for electricians too!
Great video.
Thanks!
Great video. Thanks man
Glad you liked it!

Oh good points. Mine seems to be in good shape and every part works
Did a good doing this alone except that when raised the full height the leveling legs are supposed to be on the ground, not on the wall.
Yeah, I didn’t realize that at the time.
Thank you
You're welcome!
This was an interesting demo. I have the Harbor Freight version of this ladder, so it can do *most* of what you showed here...
Cool, they are all probably similar.
Little Giants are great ladders 👍👍
Oh yeah!
The wheels should be on the top and not on the ground
yup, I went over that several times already and said that in the video.,
The leveler should be on the ground in order it should be level. The wheel should at the roofline not on the grass when extended straight up. You were too focused on in doing the video and forget to mention the safety part
I showed that part in the beginning of the video. But yeah didn’t notice that later in the video..
@@BrosFOURRSpeed
Are you still please with the ladder?
@@xrpxtrariceplease2811 oh yeah! Definitely has come in handy.
@@xrpxtrariceplease2811 I am not. Its too hard or impossible to use fully extended. Old fashioned extension ladder easier to use and will get in more locations if trees, air conditioning unit, etc around.
NEVER EVER put the WHEELS on the bottom. Read the warning labels.
They don’t touch the ground when it’s up, but yeah while filming I did see that..
That is the most dangerous ladder I have ever worked with.
Why? Works great and I trust it!

@@martinmengel what areas are you meaning about the normal extension ladder being safer? They are nearly identical so I’m confused on that.
Shop around and see what the competition sells for.
I did, can’t beat this for the price..
I never see anyone climb up to the top of the ladder when extended 🤔
Well that’s what it’s designed to do..
what the?
I thought it was a good presentation.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed okay
@@BrosFOURRSpeed So did I. Thanks for explanation and demo!
