Step 9. Using two people, pull upwards on the bag
compressing the tree branches upwards. Pull even
and slowly. Do not pull one side too hard as the tree
may become uneven and fall over. Pay attention to
the fabric as it might have become twisted during
storage. If this is the case stop pulling and untwist
the fabric before resuming. It might be necessary to
place your foot onto the tree stand while pulling
upward to steady the tree.
Step 10. If the bag becomes tight on the tree don’t
worry that is normal. This can happen either when
pulling up the storage bag to store your tree or
when you pull down the bag to use the tree during
the holiday season. Simply just push the branches in
and work the bag up or down the tree.
Step 11. After the top skirt is pulled all the way up
and over your tree, fasten the two buckles on each
side of the top ring of the bag.
Step 12. Once the buckles are clamped, gather the
tree bag at the top and pull tight with the
drawstring.
Step 13. Carefully zip up the top of the bag. For
extra thick trees you may need to compress the tree
with your hand slightly to allow the zipper to
function. Repeat on the opposite side of bag.
Step 14. For many trees over 7 feet tall, you will
need to remove the top tree section and place it in
the bottom access pocket as shown. Note: Pocket
design may vary from the illustration however the
function is exactly the same as shown.
Your tree is now stored and ready to move into
storage. Carefully lean the tree onto its side and
carry the tree into storage. Please read the cautions
below prior to moving.

CAUTION:
DO NOT LEAN ON SIDE AND PUT ALL WEIGHT OF THE
TREE ON ONE OR TWO LEGS. THIS WILL DAMAGE YOUR STAND
AND TREE.
Always use two people and use caution when leaning the tree
over. Do not put too much pressure on the stand while tipped as this could
result in damaging the trunk of the tree. Use caution when lifting the tree
as it may be heavy. Use extreme caution when moving the tree up or down
stairs. Whenever possible use two or three people to store your tree.
