LS1000
Step Operation
The LS1000 Stair Step takes the traditional vehicle ladder step to a new level of safety, quality and ease of operation. It is a three tread stair step incorporating full damping to the lowering movement of the staircase. The staircase is held in the deployed position by the action of a pair of sliding links that give a very solid feel to the step. The 250mm deep treads also provide safe, non-slip two point contact to each foot. The slide casing is made from powder coated mild steel with the treads and links in anodised aluminium alloy. All pivot points have nylon bushes and stainless steel bolts. The tread unit runs on nylon rollers in the step casing. It is retained in the closed position with a simple spring-activated latch working with rubber end-travel stops. The lower tread incorporates a striking tiger stripe anti-slip rubber in addition to the anti-slip profile of the surface of the tread units. The front of the lower tread also incorporates a soft rubber nosing strip. It can be fitted with a limit switch to activate a warning in the vehicle to indicate when the step is deployed.Download Product Specification
