To release the foot pedal, first
raise the red lock into the unlock
position (green).
Gently lift the foot pedal upwards
to open the clamping mecha-
nism. The clamps will spring (!)
into a vertical position.
Give the trunk a straight and even
cut. Set the trunk in the center of
the stand over the spike. Make
sure the trunk and spike have con-
tact but do not use force. Do not
drill a hole into the trunk.
!
The foot pedal must be lifted with
suitable foot wear. To avoid injury
do not place any body parts (fin-
gers) in area of the clamps.
!
The trunk may not be drilled in
the middle. If the cut is inclined or
the trunk is drilled, re-cutting the
trunk is necessary. An uneven or
inclined cut causes reduced sta-
bility and enhances the risk of the
tree to fall.
To take out the Christmas tree
raise the lock into the unlock posi-
tion (green).
Hold the tree in an upright po-
sition. Lift the foot pedal. The
clamps will spring (!) into a ver-
tical position. Now you can take
out the Christmas tree.
To drain the water, tip the stand
towards the level indicator open-
ing into a sink. Wash the stand
with a soft sponge and a mild
detergent. Rinse thoroughly.
!
The foot pedal must be lifted with
suitable foot wear.
!
Do not use any chemicals or
abrasive cleaners.
Dry completely prior to storage.
• Do not use the tree stand for any other purpose like
sign plates, clothes dryers, flag poles or sunshades etc.
KRINNER will not cover any damage done by misuse
of this Christmas tree stand. This Christmas tree stand is
for indoor use only.
• Before putting up your Christmas tree, ensure that your
tree stand has a secure base. A thick carpet is not a
secure base! Only use the tree stand on a solid, level
and even surface. Uneven or inclined surfaces cause
reduced stability and enhance the risk of the tree to fall.
• To prevent possible damage to your carpet or floor, the
use of a heavy plastic sheet underneath the Christmas
tree stand is recommended.
• To prevent floor damage due to possible leakage,
please check water tank for cracks and holes yearly
before tree setup. Check the water level indicator for
free movement. Use a pointed tool to pull the indicator
up and out. Wash with soap if there are sap residues.
• While pushing down the foot pedal with your feet, en-
sure that there are no hands or other body parts in be-
tween the clamps and the trunk as it can cause serious
injuries. The Christmas tree stand is not a toy! Do not
allow children to operate the tree stand. Make sure they
are not near the stand while setting up your tree.
• This Krinner Christmas tree stand is a safety product. Do
not alter the construction of the Krinner Christmas tree
stand. This will void the warranty. Do not use the stand if
it shows any structural damage.
• If electric lighting is used, do not allow this electric light-
ing to burn unattended. (!) Water is a conductor. Ensure
that electric wires are in a safe distance to the water tank
of the Christmas tree stand.
• Adding too much water will lead to overflowing and
may cause damage to the surface underneath. Strictly
follow the instructions under the chapter ‘Putting up the
tree (6.)’
• A fresh and green Christmas tree reduces the fire haz-
ard. The trunk must have a fresh, clean and even cut to
absorb water. Therefore always keep sufficient water in
the tree stand.
• Ensure that the tree is securely fastened, well balanced
and positioned in the middle of the tree stand before
applying decorations and lighting.
• Keep your tree away from fireplaces and open flames.

SAFETY
!
Push down the foot pedal. Repeat
pushing until the clamping mech-
anism securely fastens the trunk.
When tree and trunk are well
positioned and securely fastened,
slide the lock into the red position
(locked) to secure the foot pedal.
Add tap water to keep your tree
fresh. Slowly fill the tank with tap
water until the level indicator is
clearly visible. Stop adding wa-
ter. Always keep the inner con-
tainer filled with tap water.
!
Ensure the tree is securely an-
chored in the stand.
For additional security, a padlock
can be inserted to avoid acciden-
tal unlocking of the foot pedal.
!
Overfilling can damage the seal
and create recurrent leaking, and
may cause damage to your floor
covering. Please check water
tank for cracks and holes yearly
before tree setup.

The foot pedal must be lifted with
suitable foot wear. To avoid injury
do not place any body parts (fin-
gers) in area of the clamps.

and pedal is in horizontal posi-
tion. Hold pedal and bring lock

a horizontal position for storage.
Put the stand back in the box pro-
vided for this purpose.
