Big Game Treestands CR4250-S - Manual (Page 11)

STEP 2. Feed the left leg strap between legs and
thread through the bottom left waist loop. Repeat
with the right leg strap, feeding between legs and
through right waist loop. (fig. 3)
STEP 3. Secure the two leg straps by threading
the 3 bar buckle as shown in Figure 4. Tighten
the leg straps snuggly. DO NOT over tighten as
this will cut off the circulation to your leg. The
Big Game® Treestands full-body fall arrest
harness should look like the one depicted in
Figure 6 when donned correctly.
NOTE: If leg straps are too long, feed left leg
strap with buckle through bottom of the left
waist loop, down the top of the right waist loop
and secure to right leg strap with 3 Bar
Buckle as instructed.
WARNING! It is very important to complete
this step of the assembly. An improperly
secured buckle may cause full-body fall arrest
harness failure resulting in serious injury or
death! If there is not enough strap available
to complete this step, DO NOT USE THIS
FULL-BODY FALL ARREST HARNESS! You
may need to purchase and use a larger
specialty sized TMA Certified full-body fall
arrest harness.
STEP 4. If necessary to use a climbing belt for
the field installation of your treestand, feed the
climbing belt through one of the waist loops
and wrap the free end around the tree. Then
feed opposite end through the opposite waist loop and use 3 bar buckle method
described in Figure 4 to secure. (fig. 5)
STEP 5. Once you have reached your desired height, insert the tree belt through the
loop of the tether. (fig. 6) Then, carefully wrap the tree belt around the tree at a height
that allows just enough slack for you to sit comfortably in your stand. Keeping the
tether as short as possible limits the distance you will travel in case of a fall. To
secure the strap, insert free end up through the slot in the buckle closest to opposite
end of the tree belt strap, then cross over the sliding mechanism and back down
through opposite slot. Pull on strap to secure and test to make sure sliding
mechanism engages, creating secure strap placement. (fig. 7, 8, 9)
