STEP 3: Clear the area on which you plan on
placing the treestand. Remove all leaves, sticks,
rocks and debris in a 5’ to 6’ perimeter. NOTE:
The bottom section of the ladderstand will be
placed here on the cleared, clean, level area.
STEP 4: Position the bottom ladder section in
this cleared area (approximately 5’ from the base
of the tree trunk) and have one (1) adult stand
on bottom rung of the bottom ladder section.
The adult who is positioned on the bottom rung
must control the stabilizing straps and the tree-
stand as it is erected. The two (2) other adults
shall gently walk the treestand assembly up and
into position as shown in Figure 32. Once erect,
make certain the tree blade is centered on the
tree trunk as shown in Figure 33.

WARNING! You must check the ground under the treestand to make sure it is firm and level. Sloping ground or uneven
surfaces (e.g., one foot on a rock) can cause your ladder to tilt or shift off the tree as you climb. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in serious injury or death!
WARNING! DO NOT use this, or any other Millennium product(s) to climb utility poles, telephone poles, structural columns or
any other man-made structures. Never use this or any other Millennium product(s) around power generation (e.g., transformers,
generators, substations, etc.) and/or power transmission equipment. Failure to follow these instructions will result in serious
injury or death!

STEP 6: Have one (1) adult place their weight on the bottom ladder rung. Doing so will seat the ladder into the ground. NOTE: The bot-
tom ladder rung shall be flush with the ground for safe operation.
STEP 7: With the stabilizer straps with cam buckles installed as outlined, slip the cam buckle with short strap through the loops on the
bottom of the stabilizing straps with cam buckles (as shown in Figure 35) and wrap the cam buckle with short strap around the tree
trunk as shown in Figure 35. Locate the free end of the stabilizer strap (installed on the ladder bridge) and insert this end into the cam
buckle on the cambuckle with short strap as shown in Figure 35. Thread the cam buckle as shown in Figure 36 and cinch the stabilizing
strap tight. Make certain the cam buckle strap is not twisted and is tight. With the cambuckle with short strap installed on the tree and
tightened, and while standing on the ground, pull the two (2) stabilizing straps with cam buckles tight. Do not over-tighten.
STEP 8: NOTE: Never climb a stand which does not have the stabilizer straps properly installed as instructed herein and pulled tight.
With the stabilizer straps installed and secured as outlined herein, with the assistance of two (2) other adults as shown in Figure 37 to
steady the treestand, you may climb the treestand to install the seat assembly ratchet strap. Maintain three (3) points of contact when
climbing. Never lean backwards while climbing as this could cause the treestand to separate from the tree. Make certain to remain in
the center of the treestand until the platform/tree blade ratchet strap has been installed.

STEP 5: Make sure the ladder is not straight, but has about 15 degrees of angle as shown in Figure 34. This will put the bottom of ladder
approximately 5 feet from the tree as shown in Figure 34. NOTE: The seat and standing platforms must be level for a proper and safe
installation.
