REFINED GEAR FOR ADVENTURE
Use
> If you are using a thin tree, wrap the
webbing which acts as tree guard
multiple times around the tree. After
wrapping the webbing around the tree,
sling the short slitline at the end of the
webbing around the webbing itself or
slitline and Insert the 2 end knots into
the slits to lock them.
> Hang the hammock at an angle of 30 to
45 degrees in relation to the horizontal
position. Beware not to hang it up at an
angle less than 30 degrees as the
maximum load capacity could otherwise
be surpassed! To be able to maintain this
angle, a ridge line is attached to the
Suspension Kit (refer to illustration last
page). This slit line is made of 100%
Dyneema.
> Prior to seating yourself in the hammock
after set up, gently apply pressure to the
hammock to ensure that knots and
supports hold securely.
> The double floor with mat sleeve holds
an insulating mat in place and hinders
mosquitos from stinging through the
hammock. Slide the inflated mat between
the 2 layers of fabric and center.
> 3 fabric sleeves sewn to the top of the
mosquito net can hold sticks or trekking
pole segmets. Combined with the
numerous tie-out-loops they allow for an
airy setup of the mesh canopy.
> The tarp is waterproof and creates a cool
shady spot. Tie it out with the included
cords, which in turn can be stowed in the
cord stuff sacks so they do not tangle
up.
Warnings
> For safety reasons in case of a fall we
recommed mounting the hammock only
approximately 8” / 20 cm off the ground.
> Prior to each setup, check all support
components like straps, cords, carabi-
ners, seams and fabrics for damage or
wear. Should you notice any damage or
changes from its original state, do not
use the hammock. Check carabiners for
fissures, sharp edges, wear or distortion.
In these cases discontinue use of the
product. The carabiner gate must be
closed completely. The carabiner should
only be used lengthwise. Do not clip
the carabiner to metal objects.
> To help prevent injury should you fall,
check that no sharp objects, rocks, tree
limbs, etc. are under the hammock.
> Always use the original knots when
retying. Pull them tight and ensure that
enough cord protrudes from the knot ends
(minimum 3 x the diameter of the cord).
> Keep sharp objects away from the
hammock. Keys, belt buckles, nut shells,
pebbles in shoe soles, etc. could
puncture or tear the fabric and lead to
sudden failure.
> Children should not use the hammock
unsupervised
> Do not jump into the hammock or swing
vigorously! Do not load above capacity!
> Do not hang multiple hammocks above
each other.
> Do not leave the hammock exposed to
ENGLISH
INSTRUCTIONS – PLEASE READ !
Scout Hammock Combi Extreme, Scout Hamock Combi UL
the sun for extended periods of time as
lightweight fabrics are not designed to
withstand constant exposure to UV
radiation. Also keep away from heat
sources and fire!
> Prevent misuse or theft - do not leave
hammock unattended.
> Test the hammock carefully each time
you use it and before putting your full
weight in it.
> Do not make changes to the hammock
as this will void the warranty.
> Insure that the trees you use for setup
are strong enough. Do not use dead
trees. Beware of dead branches that
may fall.
> To prevent abrasion of the suspension
cords, never set up the hammock by
using 2 ropes per side, e.g. by running
the setup rope around a tree and
attaching each end to a corner of the
hammock. This leads to friction between
rope and tree with every movement of
the hammock and can lead to the rope
breaking. Always set up a hammock
with only one rope per side!
> Disregarding these warnings may lead to
severe injury or death.
Care
> Remove all hardware like carabiners and
wash in lukewarm water using a soft
brush to remove stains. Dry thoroughly.
Do not clean in a washing machine.
Do not store when wet. Do not iron or
dry-clean. Never tumble dry.
> If the hammock is ripped or torn, sew it
together and we then recommend to
treat the new seam with a seamsealer
such as Seamgrip by McNett as a
backup.
Storage
> Dry thoroughly prior to storage to
prevent mold and mildew
> Store unpacked in a dry, cool and dark
place.
Tips
> We recommend a diagonal position in
the hammock in order to lie as level as
possible.
> Tie a cord to a root or tree and slip the
end into the hammock. This gives you
a lever to easily get the hammock
swinging.
> When raining, we recommend setting up
the tarp first as this will keep the
hammock dry. If the tarp is wet after
teardown, store it in the stuffsack with
the wet cords and place the hammock
separately in your pack to keep it dry.
