PREPARATION
Please read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate or install the
product.
•Do not exceed the hammock stand’s weight limit. Appropriately installed and cared for, the stand
has a weight limit of 450 lbs.
• Whenever the stand is moved, check that the Steel Spring Clips (AA) are still properly inserted.
Failure to do so could result in the hammock stand collapsing while in use.
•Young children should never be allowed to use a hammock (not included) without adult super-
vision, and infants should never be placed in a hammock.
CAUTION
• Inspect the stand for rust and the pins of the Steel Spring Clips (AA) for wear each time someone
gets into any hammock (not included) being used with the stand.
•The stand should never be dragged; this puts unnecessary strain on the Steel Spring Clips (AA)
that hold the stand together. To move the stand, two people should lift at either end.
A wheel kit (not included) made for steel hammock stands can also be used for moving the stand.
• Do not replace the Offset S-Hooks (BB) with other hardware; these hooks are specially designed
for use with this stand to prevent damage to the stand’s powder-coat finish. For replacement hooks,
call 1-800-643-3522, Ext. 506.
