Step 3.
Unhook the bungee cord that held the seat back rest
secure while you were climbing. Position the seat back rest
by wrapping each end of the bungee cord around the climbing
cable and hooking the two hooks together as shown in
Figure
28
. The bungee cord will prevent the seat backrest from
falling forwards if you stand up.
Step 4.
With your safety harness attached to the tree above
the climber, simply pull your feet, one at a time, from their
secured position under the foot straps.
Step 5.
Position your safety harness to minimize the amount
of slack in the safety line and tether strap then carefully sit
down. The treestand seat will provide maximum comfort
when the seat pad is near horizontal rather than tipped down
in the front. The seat height can be easily raised (for bow
hunting) or lowered (for gun hunting) by adjusting the two
piece buckles up or down the webbing See
Figure 29
.
CAUTION:
The adjustments should be made on the ground.
Both sides must be adjusted evenly so the seat is level side to
side. Sliding the webbing straps forward or backward on the
frame give additional comfort.
Part 4. Climbing Down With Your New Stand.
Step 1.
Reattach your treestand platform to your feet -
KEEP YOUR HARNESS SECURELY ATTACHED TO
THE TREE
until reaching the ground.
Follow the steps in
Part 2, Step 2.
Step 2.
Disconnect the elastic cord that has been holding the
foam seat in place and fold the seat up. Secure the backrest
and seat as shown previously in
Figure 23
. Disconnect and
store the strap that has held the seat frame to the tree (shown
in previous
Figure 27
).
Step 3.
Place the seat climber at about knee level, sit on
the padded bar, and grasp the upright arms as you did when
climbing (see
Figure 30)
.
Step 4.
While firmly grasping the seat climber upright arms,
disengage the platform by lifting up and tipping the edge
closest to the tree downward. Once the platform has been
dislodged, you can lower it down (see previous
Figure 25
).
Make slow, even movements of 10-12 inches at a time.
Step 5.
To re-engage, rotate the top edge of the treestand
closest to the tree upwards. Now carefully place your weight
back on the treestand.
WARNING: DO NOT JUMP OR
BOUNCE ON THE PLATFORM OR SEAT
to attempt to
cause it to “dig” into the tree. It is not necessary and may
cause you to inadvertently disengage the platform or seat.
Step 6.
Slide your safety harness rope down to about chest
height and
repeat steps 3-6
until you have reached the
bottom of the tree.
NEVER disconnect your harness until
reaching the ground
