Treestand Safety Guidelines
ALWAYS wear a Fall-Arrest System (FAS)/Full Body Harness meeting TMA Standards even during ascent and descent. Be aware that
single strap belts and chest harnesses are no longer the preferred Fall-Arrest devices and should not be used. Failure to use a FAS
could result in serious injury or death.
ALWAYS read and understand the manufacturer's WARNINGS & INSTRUCTIONS before using the treestand each season. Practice with
the treestand at ground level prior to using at elevated positions. Maintain the WARNINGS & INSTRUCTIONS for later review as
needed, for instructions on usage to anyone borrowing your stand, or to pass on when selling the treestand. Use all safety devices
provided with your treestand. Never exceed the weight limit specified by the manufacturer. If you have any questions after reviewing
the WARNINGS & INSTRUCTIONS, please contact the manufacturer.
ALWAYS inspect the treestand and the Fall-Arrest System for signs of wear or damage before each use. Contact the manufacturer for
replacement parts. Destroy all products that cannot be repaired by the manufacturer and/or exceed recommended expiration date, or
if the manufacturer no longer exists. The FAS should be discarded and replaced after a fall has occurred.
ALWAYS practice in your Full Body Harness in the presence of a responsible adult, learning what it feels like to hang suspended in it
at ground level.
ALWAYS attach your Full Body Harness in the manner and method described by the manufacturer. Failure to do so may result in
suspension without the ability to recover into your treestand. Be aware of the hazards associated with Full Body Harnesses and the
fact that prolonged suspension in a harness may be fatal. Have in place a plan for rescue, including the use of cell phones or signal
devices that may be easily reached and used while suspended. If rescue personnel cannot be notified, you must have a plan for
recover/escape. If you have to hang suspended for a period of time before help arrives, exercise your legs by pushing against the tree
or doing any other form of continuous motion. Failure to recover in a timely manner could result in serious injury or death. If you do
not have the ability to recover/escape, hunt from the ground.
ALWAYS hunt with a plan and if possible a buddy. Before you leave home, let others know your exact hunting location, when you plan
to return and who is with you.
ALWAYS carry emergency signal devices such as a cell phone, walkie-talkie, whistle, signal flare, PLD (personal locator device) and
flashlight on your person at all times and within reach even while you are suspended in your FAS. Watch for changing weather
conditions. In the event of an accident, remain calm and seek help immediately.
ALWAYS select the proper tree for use with your treestand. Select a live straight tree that fits within the size limits recommended in
your treestand's instructions. Do not climb or place a treestand against a leaning tree. Never leave a treestand installed for more than
two weeks since damage could result from changing weather conditions and/or from other factors not obvious with a visual inspection.
ALWAYS use a haul line to pull up your gear and unloaded firearm or bow to your treestand once you have reached your desired
hunting height. Never climb with anything in your hands or on your back. Prior to descending, lower your equipment on the opposite
side of the tree.
ALWAYS know your physical limitations. Don't take chances. If you start thinking about how high you are, don't go any higher.
NEVER use homemade or permanently elevated stands or make modifications to a purchased treestand without the manufacturer's
written permission. Only purchase and use treestands and Fall-Arrest Systems meeting or exceeding TMA standards. For a detailed
list of certified products, contact the TMA office or refer to the TMA web site at www.tmastands.com.
NEVER hurry!! While climbing with a treestand, make slow, even movements of no more than ten to twelve inches at a time. Make
sure you have proper contact with the tree and/or treestand every time you move. On ladder-type treestands, maintain three points of
contact with each step.

Please do be advised that all treestands will ship
UPS and there will be a additional charge of
$10.00 (minimum). Thank You.
