Spanish translation:apoyo reducido e inseguro
Explanation:
La frase completa: nunca apoye las patas de la escalera en lugares reducidos e inapropiados. "Crib" en este caso se refiere a un lugar tan pequeño que no le permita a la escalera tener estabilidad y seguridad, e.g.: apoyarla en un filo o zanco en que se puede deslizar y caerse.

Nunca empotre/encasille las patas de las escaleras


Explanation:
Accepcion 5 segun el Oxford Dictionary
(also cribwork)
A heavy timber framework used in foundations for a building or to line a mineshaft.

Si cribwork es una instalaccion de madera, quizas, "to crip the shoe or foot of a ladder" pueda significar encasillar, empotrar, montar.
