WARNING
This product carries strict height and weight restrictions.
Do Not use this product if you exceed the total weight
limit. Please note that the total weight limit includes the
user(s) and their equipment.
WARNING
When hunting from a treestand falls can occur any
time after leaving the ground causing injury or death.
Always wear a Fall Arrest System (FAS) comprising a full
body harness at all times after leaving the ground. You
must stay connected at all times after leaving the ground
while using climbing and hang-on treestands. Single
safety belts and chest harnesses are no longer allowed
and shall never be used. If you are not wearing a full body
harness properly attached to the tree that is protecting
you from a fall, do not leave the ground.
Read and understand all of the manufacturer’s Warnings
and Instructions and use all safety devices provided by
the manufacturer. Contact the manufacturer for any
questions. Failure to do so could result in injury or death.
Never exceed the total weight limit of the treestand.
Never use a treestand during inclement weather such as
rain, lightning, windstorms or icy conditions and end your
hunt and return to the ground if inclement conditions arise.
Never use a treestand while using drugs (even
prescription drugs) or alcohol.
Never use a treestand while feeling ill, nauseous or dizzy,
or if you have a prior medical condition that could cause
a problem, that is, heart condition, joints that lock-up,
spinal fusions, etc., or if you are not well rested. Never
sleep in stand.
Never use a treestand on a dead, leaning, diseased or
loose barked tree, or a utility pole. Always avoid electrical
power lines.
Never rely on a tree branch for support.
WARNING
Never jump or bounce on a treestand to seat it to the tree.
Pull up a bow, backpack, or rearm or other equipment
only after being secure in the treestand and a rearm
must be pulled up with it unloaded, chamber open, and
muzzle down.
Always inform someone of the hunting location, where
the treestand will be located and the expected duration
of the hunt.
A signal device such as a mobile phone, radio, whistle,
signal are or personal locator device (PLD) must be on
your person and readily available at all times.
Inspect the treestand and all safety devices each time
before use and Do Not store a treestand outdoors when
not in use.
Never modify your treestand in any way by making
repairs, replacing parts, or altering it except if explicitly
authorized in writing by the manufacturer.
Practice installing, adjusting and using your treestand at
ground level prior to using it at elevated positions. Study
your new stand to become familiar with all of its features
and design. Doing so will conrm that the product is
manufactured, assembled and installed correctly.
Instructions (written and video) shall be kept in a safe place
and reviewed at least annually. It is the responsibility of
the treestand owner to furnish the complete instructions
to any person who borrows or purchases the treestand.
Use at least three (3) people to install or take down a
ladder treestand.
The criss-cross straps/ropes and stabilization devices
must be attached before climbing to the platform.
When installing a ladder stand, always bounce on the
rst rung to set the ladder into the ground according to
manufacturer’s instructions before proceeding to climb
any higher.
Check every ladder section connection every time you
use the stand before you leave the ground. If ladder
sections are separating, do not use the stand.
Check the ground under the stand to make sure it is rm
and level. Sloping ground or uneven surface (one side on
a rock) can cause your ladder to tilt or shift o the tree as
you climb.
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.

carry in your hands!
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
shooting rest only. Always be aware that the shooting rail
can swing to one side or pivot up and down.
Some models include a footrest, which is designed as a
footrest only. Never stand on footrest! Always be fully
aware of foot placement.
Some models include a multi-piece stabilizer bar system.
Be sure attachment hardware goes through both the
extension tube and the stabilizer bar.

1. With assembled product lying on the ground, position one
person at bottom end of ladder lying on the ground. This
person has to prevent the ladder end from tilting up when
platform end is lifted and prevent the ladder from skidding
across ground.
2. a. Position two people at the platform end of the ladder,
lift the platform end and continue uprighting by walking
toward bottom end of ladder and moving hands along
ladder legs. Stand ladder up against chosen straight tree
on dry, level ground. Use caution when ladder comes over
center against the tree. SEE FIGURES 9A.
b. Step back and look at the ladder top to see that it is level.
Adjust as needed to achieve a level platform top. Make sure
tree blade is contacting tree. SEE FIGURES 9B.
c. Step down hard on bottom step to push ladder legs into
the ground. SEE FIGURES 9C.
3. 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 (33) by forming a cinch knot with
both ends of the strap and running the long end of the
strap through the cam buckle. SEE FIGURES 10 and 11.

4. a. Loop the d-loop end of the two 16' criss cross straps
(35) 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 12A.
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 (35) behind the tree and feed the free end
through the opposite d-loop. SEE FIGURE 12B-E.
c. Criss cross the other 16' stabilizer strap (35), forming an
"X" pattern on the of the tree and feed the free end through
the opposite d-loop. SEE FIGURE 12B-E.
5. Make sure the criss cross straps and stabilizer bar strap are
snug and the tree blade is still 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 (34)
attachment. The same holds true when the ladder is
removed.
6. With two people securely holding the ladder, use the three
point contact climbing method to slowly climb the ladder and
carefully keep a constant hand grip on the ladder at all times.
Always lean forward, toward tree, to keep top section tree
blades against the tree. Be certain 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.
NOTE: Bring ratchet strap up with you in a pocket. DO NOT
carry in your hand!
7. Standing on ladder step, lean toward tree with previously
installed 6' ratchet strap (34) now in hand.
a. Wrap the previously installed end of the long strap
around the tree and feed through the slot in the ratchet
mechanism. SEE FIGURE 13A
NOTE: Be sure to feed the long strap correctly so there are
no twists in the strap.
b. 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. SEE FIGURE 13B
c. Use the ratchet to tighten the strap to tree. The tightened
strap will stabilize the stand to tree and prevent
movement. SEE FIGURE 13C
NOTE:Make surethere isat leasttwo fullrevolutionsof strapon
the ratchet spoolbeforethe strap tightens. Proper tensionwill
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 the release lever and open
tightening lever wide open (at). SEE FIGURE 13D.
8. If necessary, re-check and adjust the 6' ratchet strap (34), 16'
criss cross straps (35) and horizontal stabilizer bar assembly to
securely attach the treestand to the tree. The tree blade must
be touching the tree.
9. Attach the backrest portion of the seat cushion by securing the
bungee cord around the tree.
10. You are now ready to use your ladder stand!
