•
Anytime you are ascending, descending, or hunting from an
elevated platform, make sure that you are secured to the tree the
moment you leave the ground until the moment you return to the
ground. This should be accomplished with the use of one or more
of the following: The optional Lineman’s Climbing Strap and tree
strap combination (to stay doubly attached to the tree), or the
optional Lifeline.
• Always use the optional
Hunter's Elite
Lineman’s Climbing Strap
and tether/tree strap according to the manufacturer’s instructions
when hanging
a fixed position, hang-on style treestand.
• When hanging or removing climbing aids or treestands, the Lineman’s
Climbing Strap must always be used in conjunction with the tree
strap and tether provided with the
Hunter's Elite harness
. To
maximize safety,
always attach the harness’ tether and tree strap
to the tree along
with the optional lineman’s climbing strap,
staying doubly attached
while climbing, hanging, or securing a
treestand, ladder stick or other
accessories to/from the tree.
• Always maintain 3-point contact when climbing up or down a tree using
climbing aids. Proper 3-point contact means having either two feet with
one hand or one foot with two hands on the steps of your climbing aid
at all times when climbing up/down or in and out of the treestand.
• When moving to gain access into the treestand with the optional
Lineman’s Climbing Strap and tether/tree strap still attached to the
tree, remove and reattach the tree strap to the tree at a point located
above the treestand before disconnecting the lineman’s climbing strap.
Once securely attached to the tree by the tether, remove the lineman’s
climbing strap and climb above the base of the treestand. Reattach
the lineman’s strap to the tree and stay doubly attached to the tree
while stepping down into the center of the treestand. Remain doubly
attached until you are secure in the stand. Then remove the lineman’s
climbing strap.
• The
Hunter's Elite
harness is only considered a fall restraint device when
all waist and leg buckles are closed securely and adjusted comfortably
snug in place around the body, and the harness is attached firmly to the
tree by the tether according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Leg straps & buckles must be correctly adjusted and in the proper
position between your legs (left strap/left leg, right strap/right leg), and
the waist buckle must be locked closed (and checked by pulling sharply
on it) from the time you leave the ground until you return to the ground.
