carry in your hands!
Be sure only one person ascends or descends ladder at a
time. Be certain rst person is seated safely, and attached
to tree with provided Fall Arrest System (FAS) correctly
before second person ascends or descends ladder.
Never have two people on one side of the platform. Keep
weight evenly distributed on platform.
Always be aware of the other person’s position. Use
extreme caution when weapons are used to prevent
personal injury.
WARNING
Double check assembly steps to be certain you have
correctly assembled this product.
Study your new stand to become familiar with all of its
features and design. At ground level, following provided
use instructions, practice attaching stand to tree and
removing stand from tree. Practice sitting, standing, and
using this product before attaching overhead. Save these
instructions for future reference. You must always use the
provided Fall Arrest System (FAS) while using this product.
Always use at least three (3) people to install or take down
a ladder treestand. Always have two people stabilize the
ladder before climbing to the platform the rst time after
every set-up.
Be absolutely sure the tree blade(s) on stand and the
stabilizer bar are contacting tree before climbing ladder.
Stabilizer bar must always be correctly and securely
attached to ladder and tree before climbing ladder.
Make sure ladder bottom is rmly seated on dry, level
ground. Attach your harness tether to the tree before
securing the platform to the tree and stepping onto
platform. Refer to the Full Body Harness instructions.
Never ascend or descend ladder without criss-cross
straps/ropes securely holding ladder to tree and stabilizer
bar securely attached. Failure to correctly perform these
steps can cause the ladder to collapse/buckle-over
backwards during the initial ascent to attach ratchet strap
resulting in serious injury or death.
Always lean forward as you climb and attach your harness
to the tree before securing the platform to the tree and
stepping onto the platform.
WARNING
Always maintain three (3) points of contact when
climbing a ladder treestand. Proper three-point contact
means having either two feet with one hand or one foot
with two hands on the step portion of the ladder or
climbing aid at all times.
Always wear the appropriate footwear when using a
ladder treestand. A good non-slip safety boot is important
to your personal safety. Be especially careful that boot laces
do not get hooked on the stand or any of its components
(tuck shoelaces into boots before climbing).
Never stand on seat, it is designed for sitting only.
Do Not allow excessive strap buildup in ratchet as this
will prevent the ratchet teeth from engaging causing
slippage.
Always attach ratchet straps securely while using this
product!
If seat is removable, be certain it is securely attached
when in use.
Some models include a shooting rail. Never lean against,
lean over, or sit on shooting rail. It is designed as a

1. Select a straight, healthy tree. Do not attempt to install on a tree
that is not healthy.
2. Place the assembled product lying on the ground in front of the
tree with the bottom ladder section approximately ve feet away
from the base of tree.
3. Position one person at bottom end of ladder. This person has to
prevent the ladder end from tilting up and from skidding across
the ground when platform end is lifted.
4. Position two people at the platform end of the ladder, lift the
platform end and continue uprighting by walking toward bottom
end of ladder while moving hands along ladder legs. Stand
ladder up against chosen tree on dry, level ground. Use
caution when ladder comes over center against the tree, as shown
by arrow “A”. SEE FIGURE 12.
5. Once elevated completely, carefully slide the base so that the
sitting and standing platforms are parallel to the ground, as
shown by arrow“B”. SEE FIGURE 12.
6. Step back and look at the ladder top to see that the tree blade
is contacting the tree. Adjust as needed so the tree blade is
contacting the tree.
7. Step down hard on bottom step to push ladder legs into the
ground, as shown by arrow “C”. SEE FIGURE 12.
8. While two people hold the stand in place, the third person should
connect the horizontal stabilizer bar to the tree. Adjust the length
of the stabilizer bar as need so it contacts the tree and is level to
the ground. Then secure it to the tree with the 6' cam strap (37)
by forming a cinch knot with both ends of strap and running the
long end of strap through the cam buckle. SEE FIGURES 13 & 14.
9. a. Loop the d-loop end of the two 16' criss cross straps (38)
through the loop end to form a cinch knot around the ladder
rail tube. Secure beneath a step rung, at the stabilizer bar height
location. SEE FIGURE 15A.
b. With the stand level and being held in place by two people,
the third person must cross one of the 16' criss cross straps (38)
behind the tree and feed the free end through the opposite
d-loop. SEE FIGURE 15B-E.
c. Criss cross the other 16' strap (38), forming an "X" pattern on
the of the tree and feed the free end through the opposite d-loop.
SEE FIGURE 15B-E.
During installation and removal of ladder treestands, you
must always and properly use the included Full Body Harness
(Fall Arrest System). Refer to the Full Body Harness instructions
included with this product for proper use.

10. Make sure the criss cross straps and stabilizer bar strap are snug
and the tree blade is still both contacting the tree.
NOTE: This ground level ladder-to-tree attachment will prevent
the ladder from pulling away from the tree while ascending to
the top for nal 6’ ratchet strap (36) attachment. The same holds
true when the ladder is removed.
11. With two people securely holding the ladder, the third person
must now use the three point contact climbing method to slowly
climb the ladder. Make sure to keep a constant hand grip on the
ladder at all times. Always lean forward, toward the tree, to keep
the platform tree blade against the tree.
NOTE: Make sure the ladder bottom is rmly seated on dry, level
ground. Attach your harness tether to the tree before securing
the platform to the tree and stepping onto platform. Refer to the
Full Body Harness instructions included with this product.
12. a. Standing on ladder step, lean toward tree with ratchet strap (36)
now in hand, hook“S” hook with long strap through hole provided
on the tree blade. Feed the long strap through the center (slot) of
ratcheting mechanism and back around through tightening lever.
SEE FIGURES 16A, 16B AND 17.
NOTE: Be sure you feed the long strap correctly so there are no
twists in the strap.
b.Wrap entire ratchet assembly around tree and hook other“S”hook
through opposite tree blade hole. Pull tail of long strap until most
of the slack is taken out. Be sure entire strap is even and at the same
level all around tree. “Ratchet” tight to tree, this will securely attach
ladder to tree and prevent movement. SEE FIGURES 16B AND 16C.
NOTE: Make sure there is at least two full revolutions of strap on
the ratchet spool before the strap tightens. Proper tension will
ensure the stand is secured to the tree. Do not allow excessive strap
to build up in the ratchet as this will prevent the ratchet teeth from
engaging and can cause slippage.
To release ratchet, simply pull therelease lever andopen tightening
lever wide open (at). SEE FIGURE 16D.
13. If necessary, re-check and adjust the 6' ratchet strap (36), 16' criss
cross straps (38) and horizontal stabilizer bar assembly to securely
attach the treestand to the tree. The tree blade must be touching
the tree.
14. You are now ready to use your ladder stand!
