CRITICAL STRAP ATTACHMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Improper strap attachment to the treestand and/or improper
treestand attachment to the tree may lead to serious injury or
death due to sudden release of an incorrectly attached strap/
treestand!
1. The Big Foot strap (2) can be attached so that the sewn loop
side with the oat buckle can be put on either side of the
treestand depending on your left or right hand installation
preference. Make sure to always orientate climbing aid to
the oat buckle side of the strap. Start by attaching the
sewn loop of the long side strap to either the left or right
side of treestand by sliding sewn loop completely over the
oval mount. SEE FIGURES 5 & 6A-6B.
2. The sewn loop on oat buckle side secures to the opposite
side of treestand in the same way as described in step 1 by
sliding sewn loop completely over the oval mount.
3. It is critical that you secure the sewn loops of Big Foot strap
to the oval mounts properly and securely, your life depends
on it! DO NOT attach the sewn loops of the strap as shown
in FIGURES 7A-7B or any other incorrect fashion or you may
be seriously injured or killed due to sudden release of an
incorrectly attached strap/treestand to the tree!
