to the tree before securing the platform to the tree and
stepping onto the platform.
Never exceed the stated maximum use height.
Do Not use this product until you have watched the

ticed the techniques for safe hunting discussed in this DVD.
Read and perform all inspection and maintenance tasks
before each and every use. Replace any questionable
components immediately with RETI original replacement
parts.
Do Not crush tubing when tightening bolt assemblies!
Identify and familiarize yourself with all parts before you
start. Bolt identification chart can be found on the follow-
ing page of the manual.
Double check assembly steps to be certain you have
correctly assembled this product.
Never use any product that has not been maintained or
inspected properly - Your life depends on it!
Replace any and all treestand straps every two years or

components (tuck shoelaces into boots before climbing).
