Reasons the product is recalled

The hazards to consumers
There is a possibility of a fall injury if the ladders fail while loaded with more than 112.5kg.
What consumers should do
Consumers should not use the ladder for loads of more than 112.5kg. Consumers may contact Factory Fast to arrange to be refunded the full purchase price.
