Full BODY HARNESS (FAS) uSED WITH TREE BElT SuPPlIED WITH All lADDER STYlE TREESTANDS
This is the primary attachment method when using a Full Body Harness
(FAS). This method must be used while in your final hunting position
with any type of treestand. This method must be done immediately
upon reaching the foot platform of your ladder stand.
1. While wearing your Full Body Harness (FAS) correctly, wrap the
tree belt through the loop end of the tether and around tree. Take
the tail end of the tree belt and feed it through the (2) adjustment
slides on tree belt. SEE FIGuRE 9. Pull the tail of tree belt tight.
note: be sure the (2) adjustment slides are facing away from
tree, preventing any obstruction. do not position tether on or be-
tween the (2) tree belt adjustment slides. see FIGure 9.
Once you have reached your desired hunting height, you must
slide the tree belt up the tree as high as possible. Tighten the tree
belt to the tree by pulling the tree belt tail tight. The tether strap
accommodates your freedom of movement, however, the distance
should be as short as possible to reduce the dynamic load on your
body in case of a fall. There should be no slack in tether strap while
in a sitting position.
2. Reverse these procedures to descend from your treestand.
