CLIMBING UP WITH YOUR NEW STAND
(continued)
5. Rest your weight on your forearms.
Disengage the foot platform by lifting as
shown in figure 35. Pulling up and slightly out
on the platform while pointing your toes down
should disconnect the foot platform from the
tree.
6. Bring the foot platform up by raising your
legs straight up. Take care not to snag the
cable on tree bark or limbs. Take your time!
User short controlled movements.
7. To re-engage the foot platform, simply
rotate the edge back against the tree upwards,
as shown in figure 36.
The RapidClimb stirrups are located in such a
position that equal distribution of weight will
secure the platform to the tree while climbing.
8. Now ease your weight back onto the foot
platform (to ensure that you have not placed
it on an unseen knot or limb on the backside
of the tree). Once the foot platform is secure,
stand and slide your safety harness tether up
the tree.
9. Once the foot platform is fully supporting
your weight you can disengage the seat
platform and raise it back up to just below
waist height as shown again in
figure 34.
Repeat steps 4-9 until you are at your hunting
height.
NOTE: It is unnecessary and unadvisable to
be higher than 15 feet (4.57 meters) from
ground level.
WARNING
!
Use short controlled movements when
ascending or descending the tree. NEVER
GET IN A HURRY! The FBFAHS must be
used from the time you leave the ground
until safely returning to the ground.

NEVER jump or bounce on the foot or seat platform to seat the teeth into
the tree bark. Doing this may over-load the components or cause the
treestand to slip which may cause serious injury or death.
