Does this ladder have the slow closing feature or not?? Videos and mfg. site show the sections only closing halfway until the next section is closed??

It doesn't have the slow closing but yes the sections only closing halfway until the next section is closed because it's safer this way so it doesn't accidentally snap your finger(s). I've using this for family light duty use and it's tiny foot print comes handy to me a lot times.

That doesn't seem to bother the ladder, it may be hard on the little cogs over time operating it that way though? Elevation as far as the main ladder boom is the only thing you must use a crank for, the ladder can elevate up without the crank but has to come down with it. their is a seperate crank one for extending the ladder in and out and one for the up and down boom operation.

Sorry can't help. Don't have a tall enough ladder to reach it right now. Someone else installed it for me. Absolutely love it!!!

As far as I know, the Wall Standoff attaches in only one position. This is because of how it attaches to the ladder itself.

There is a 10-page booklet included, but does not show 28 positions. It does list a handful of configuration, though. I enjoy the ladder, its easy to use, but could be a bit heavy for elderly people.

There should be a chart, count how many top rails you have... Then look on the chart to see how many sections you'll need... It will leave an opening for your ladder... Easy install... Did my 18 foot in about 3.5 hrs by myself.. Hope this helps.. I left out one section on purpose as it does not swing open... All sections are fixed...

There should be a button sticking out of the top step (front left). Just push that down and push the steps and it'll easily close. Hope that helps.

Each side has a fixed to the hinge section. Each fixed hinge section has a removeable adjustable side outer section. You can use just 3 sections with one adjustable, or the center two hinge sections. Or just use all four sections and do not extend one section. A big advantage of this type of ladder is it can be used on stairs, just adjust each side. I own three of these now and have been pleased with them. They are very sturdy, even fully extended. Very good hinge design. The two adjustable slide sections do not tie together to make a separate second ladder.

I have not deployed the ladder, however I have looked at it. It does not appear to unroll, but expand like a accordion. I do not think it would cause a problem. Hope this helped.

Yes, there is. There is a small locking tab that is meant to keep the ladder steps in place while in use. I find this to be a good safety item. When you're ready to store the item, it's simple to release this locking tab, pull on a tread to fold the ladder, then store it. Personally, I'm pleased with this item.

I think not. You should lower the ladder, not just throw it out the window. If you have questions, contact X-It. Contact info is on their website.

I think the photo that is on the listing is accurate. I believe there is a newer version of this ladder from little giant that may have a slightly different shape to it. Buying the one listed here is probably the older model (that's what I have).

It has a long loop on one end. You can wrap it around the branch and pull the ladder through the loop to cinch it tight.

I bought the 12106 leg leveler and it`s from Little Giant. I`m not so sure if I would buy it again as it is a bear to set up when you move the ladder. I bought 2 thinking that would help but it didn`t. By rhe time I get it set up I`m worn out and to tired to climb the ladder. Maybe you would have better luck. I could not find the 10106 thru Amazon. Maybe you could contact Little Giant and see if that is there model number. Good Luck.

Ours has been installed for quite a while and at my age I am no longer aloud on a ladder :&gt;)} so I can't get up there. I do know that what I bought is made for the regular size gutter and is too small for the super gutters. It works great for the area we are using it in. Hope that helps.

You control the closing with your foot. Nothing automatically stops it, but it doesn't slam down abruptly either. Specially if you have a little trash bag, this softens the closing.

No, I watched my grandson do just that. However I felt like at the time that if he kept doing it, the cord that moves the ladder would mess up some how. This is a really nice fire truck.... Worth the cost.
