WARNING

BEFORE EACH USE PERFORM THE FOLLOWING:

•  Inspect all webbing, rope, cord, and strap assemblies for 

wear or damage.

•  Inspect cables and/or cable ends for damage or kinking.
•  Inspect all hardware and chain components for damage or 

wear.

•  Inspect for any structural damage to product. (If any exists 

stop use immediately and call RETI Customer Service.)

•  Inspect all nut and bolt assemblies to be certain none are 

loose.

•  Inspect for any missing parts.
•  Lubricate all pivot and slide together points with powder 

graphite, petroleum jelly or silicone spray to prevent noise, 

wear and rust.

•  Inspect entire product for any rust, corrosion, cracks, 

freezing, excessive heat or rotting damage that may effect 

the safety of your product. Discard any questionable 

product.

•  Inspect entire product for any structural damage - pay 

close attention to all weld locations. (Discard product if any 

damage is found.)

•  Using correct wrenches inspect all nut & bolt assembly 

locations and snug up any that may be loose. Be careful not 

to crush tubing when tightening!

•  Inspect and check operation of all cables, cable ends, cord, 

rope, webbing, and strap or chain assemblies. Replace 

with RETI  original replacement parts any item or assembly 

that shows signs of wear, damage, kinking, or functions 

incorrectly.

•  Inspect seat for damage or wear. Replace any seat with 

factory new that shows signs of structural damage or wear.

•  Never modify your stand in any way by making repairs, 

replacing parts, or altering by adding or attaching anything 

to it except if explicitly authorized in writing by the 

manufacturer.

WARNING

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

  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.

  Never exceed the stated maximum use height.
  Do Not use this product until you have watched the  

 

  online safety video, understand it, and practiced the  

  techniques for safe hunting discussed in this video. Video 

  can be found with the QR code and/or URL shown on 

  front cover of this manual.

  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  

  when any signs of damage or wear exist before.

  Always wear the appropriate footwear when using a  

  ladder treestand. A good non-slip safety boot is import- 

  ant 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).

  Only use approved RETI parts. Failure to do so may result  

  in serious injury or death!
