Operator's Manual
RELAX 2-MAN Ladder Stand
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 five 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.
