TO ASSIST WITH THE SET-UP OF YOUR TREESTAND
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 the 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 rails. 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”.

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 2.
6. Step back and look at the ladder top to see that both the lower
platform tree blade and upper tree blade are contacting the tree.
Adjust as needed so both of the tree blades are contacting the
tree.

ground, as shown by arrow “C”.
