Install Diagonal Braces
Onto Top Ladder Section
STEP 17: Locate the two-piece adjustable stand-off bar. Slide the bar with the “V” portion into the smaller bar with the holes.
Secure using a spring pin as shown in Figure 33. You will install this two-piece adjustable stand-off bar during installation of the
ladderstand onto the tree.
STEP 18: NOTE: The following assembly STEPS may be easier with the standing platform assembly on its side. Locate the two (2)
diagonal braces. Install the one (1) end of the two (2) diagonal braces to the standing platform using two (2) ¼ x 2 ¼” bolts,
four (4) steel washers and two (2) locknuts as shown in Figure 34. NOTE: The diagonal braces install to the INSIDE of the stand-
ing platform as shown in Figure 34. Repeat this STEP for installation of the opposing diagonal brace on opposite the side of the
standing platform.
STEP 19: Locate the top ladder section. NOTE: The top ladder section has a drilled hole just below the top rung as shown in Figure
35. Slip the male portion of the top ladder section into the top ladder section brackets and secure using two (2) ¼ x 1 ¼” bolts,
four (4) steel washers and two (2) locknuts as shown in Figure 36.
STEP 20: With the top ladder section installed, rotate the two (2) previously installed diagonal braces into place on the OUTSIDE
and attach them to the top ladder section using two (2) ¼ x 2 ¼” bolts, four (4) steel washers and two (2) locknuts as shown in
Figure 37. ASSEMBLY TIP: The ladderstand assembly locknuts MUST be loose to allow the diagonals to be mounted. If the hardware
is tight, the diagonal braces WILL NOT align.
STEP 21: With the treestand laying on the ground and on its side, you may now install the remaining ladder sections. NOTE: The
ladder sections install using two (2) spring pins per section. Locate the 2nd top ladder section. Slide the male end of the 2nd
top ladder section into the
female
end of the top ladder section as shown in Figure 38. Secure using spring pins as shown in
Figure 39. Repeat this STEP for the two-piece adjustable stand-off bar ladder section and the bottom ladder sections.
