CLIMBING UP WITH YOUR NEW STAND
ALWAYS refer to the written FBFAHS instructions
and videos for proper and safe use of your FBFAHS
before climbing.
1.
Following the FBFAHS Instructions, attach the
harness tether to the tether strap. Loop the strap
around the tree to secure it. See
figure 21
.
2.
Your RapidClimb stirrups and bungee heel cord
should be already attached to your treestand. To use,
back your heel into the bungee heel cord (
figure 22
)
then simply slide your boot under the RapidClimb
stirrup. Make sure that your boot is secure under the
stirrup as shown in
figure 23
.
3.
On the Explorer, hook the black elastic bungee
cord around the seat as shown in
figure 24
to keep
it secure while you climb. On the Sentry, pivot the
seat up against the V-Brace and using the green
tourniquet strap, secure the seat in the up position.
4.
To begin climbing, raise your seat platform up to
just below waist height and grasp the upright arms
very firmly as shown in
figure 25
.
WARNING
!
At this point IT IS MANDATORY AND REQUIRED
that you attach your FBFAHS to the tree and
remain connected at all times after leaving the
ground.
