Little Giant® 17228

DESCRIPTION

The HyperLite SumoStance is the only extension ladder in the world with Little Giant's patented SumoStance leveling outrigger system, which more than doubles the ladder's base width and increases side-tip stability by up to 600 percent. The SumoStance's intuitive safety features help ensure a safe, stable set-up for any job on almost any surface and is lighter than any other manufacturer's lightest ordinary extension ladders. To be precise: the HyperLite SumoStance, with the added safety of leveling outriggers, is still lighter than any other traditional extension ladder without sacrificing strength and stability. The HyperLite SumoStance also offers a side-to-side bubble level and front-to-back angle indicator, making it possible to set up the ladder safely. It also features Little Giant's unique side-mounted, dual-pulley system, which reduces the effort required to lift the fly section by 45% and removes the potential trip hazard caused by traditional center pulley rope systems.
