UPRIGHTING AND USE INSTRUCTIONS
1. With assembled product lying on ground, position two people at feet end
of tower laying on ground. These people have to prevent the bottom end
from tilting up when platform end is lifted and prevent feet from skidding
across the ground.
2. Position two people at platform end, lift platform end of tower and continue
uprighting by walking toward feet end and moving hands along leg sections.
As tower goes over-center, slowly allow the tower to land on the opposite
legs section. Be sure all people are clear to prevent injury.
3. Tower may need to be positioned to allow for a level stand and all legs
touching ground. Avoid rocks or anything that may hinder this from
happening. Only move tower with four people, one on each leg. each
person should lift equally and only enough to shift tower to a level ground
location.
DO NOT lift tower by round cross braces as you could bend
or damage them. The ladder height adjuster brackets may need to be
repositioned so they contact the ground firmly.
4. Drive (4) ground stakes (not included) through the holes in the (4) feet.
Stakes should be approximately 24” in length with 18” in ground and should
be driven in at an angle.
SEE fIGURE 14.
5. Climb ladder slowly and carefully keeping a constant hand grip on ladder
at all times. Lean forward, towards ladder as you climb. Be sure hands
are free for climbing. Continue up onto the platform.
6. Unzip access door for entry. Door may be zipped closed once inside blind.
Windows can be configured in multiple positions for versatility.
7. reverse uprighting and use instructions to take tower down.
