OVERSIZED TRADTIONAL STYLE ROPE HAMMOCK

*CAUTION* If you are not familiar with construction, hardware or the use of tools, please use a qualified general contractor to install.

Improper installation may cause injury.

Safety First: Before entering hammock, inspect your hammock, hardware, installation points and objects supporting your hammock

for wear or weakness. Make sure there is no excessive rust or twisting in the hanging hardware. Proceed carefully and take your time

getting into and out of your hammock. Any hammock may tip if your weight isn’t centered. A hammock is not a playground swing or a

trampoline. Excessive swinging and other rough play may result in falls and may wear out your hammock and hardware prematurely.

Small children should not play unsupervised in your hammock.

Hammock Care and Maintenance:

To prevent mildew and increase the useful life of your hammock, store it in a dry location during seasons and time periods when it is

not in use. Avoid keeping in direct sunlight and rain for long durations. Some fading may occur.

Cleaning:

Your hammock is hand washable with cold water and a mild detergent or soap. Do not use harsh chemical cleaners or bleach. Rinse

well and let it dry thoroughly before storing. Keep rope and loops away from fabric while cleaning.

Storage:

Make sure the hammock is completely dry before storing in a dry location.

HANGING INSTRUCTIONS

Since most hammocks are hand crafted, you should measure the overall length of your hammock, in order to determine the best hanging option.

Tree mounting – Two hardwood trees with a minimum of 12 inches in diameter and a minimum of 12 feet apart are needed. You can also set up 1 post mount if you

only have 1 tree available (see “post mounting” to learn more about mounting posts). Appropriate hardware like 2 eye screws with hooks, or tree straps and S hooks

need to be used for support and attachment to trees. Chains and S-hooks are recommended but may not be necessary, if you are limited in space between the 2

mount points. ***IMPORTANT: WHEN USING EYE SCREWS, MAKE SURE TO TIGHTLY SCREW EACH EYE SCREW ALL THE WAY IN THE TREE***

Post mounting – When only 1 tree or no trees are available, pressure treated posts can be substituted. The posts should have minimum dimensions of 4”x 4” x 8’ .

These posts should be cemented a minimum of 2 feet into the ground (sandy or loose earth might require longer posts and deeper cementing). In order to properly

hang your hammock, 8-12 feet of space between the posts is the minimum requirement depending on the size of the hammock. Posts should periodically be checked

for cracking and rotting.

Hammock Stand – When trees and posts are not available, the simplest way to use your hammock is on a free standing hammock stand. The overall length of the

stand should be about 1.0’ - 2.0’ longer than the overall size of your hammock. To check if your hammock fits on your stand, hang the hammock on the stand and

adjust to fit according to the “hanging guidelines” section, and on the diagram.

Hanging Guidelines: Refer to page 2 for hanging instructions
