[How to extract the compressed file]

Copy the file to a folder.
The file is a compressed file in ZIP format.

Decompression method 1): For the OS with the ZIP-compatible decompression function

  1. Right-click the copied file.
  2. Select "Extract All...".
    When "Extract All..." is not displayed, follow the decompression method 2).
  3. Specify the location of the extracted file, and click the "Extract" button to start the decompression.

Decompression method 2): For the OS without the ZIP-compatible decompression function

  1. If not having the ZIP-compatible decompression tool, acquire the decompressing tool.
  2. Decompress the file using the decompression tool.

* Use the decompression tool at users' own risk.


[Precautions for using the sample ladder]

  1. Before applying the sample ladder to a system, check sufficiently if no problem occurs in the control of the system.
