The Hoffen 4 Step Pontoon Boat Ladder features a telescoping design for convenient deployment and storage.

5.1. Extending the Ladder

• To extend the ladder, simply pull the bottom section downwards. The steps will slide out smoothly.
• Ensure each step is fully extended and clicks into its locked position before use.

5.2. Retracting and Stowing the Ladder

• To retract, gently push the bottom steps upwards. The telescoping sections will collapse.
• Once fully retracted, the ladder can be flipped up and over onto the deck for storage.
• Use the re-usable bungee cord strap to secure the ladder in its stowed position, preventing it from deploying accidentally during transit or when not in use.
