804232 Hammock with carrying Bag
Instruction Manual

Before using the hammock, inspect your hammock, hardware, installation points, and objects supporting your hammock for wear or weakness. Take your time getting into and out of your hammock. The hammock may tip if the weight isn‘t centered. A hammock is not a playground swing or a trampoline. Excessive swinging and rough play may result in injury or wear out your hammock and hardware prematurely. Small children should not play unsupervised on the hammock.

HANGING INSTRUCTIONS:

Unpack and open the hammock and the suspension system.
Wrap one loop end of the suspension strap around the tree or post approx. 5 ft. (1.5 m) from the ground. Thread the other end of the suspension strap through the desired loop of the suspension strap that is wrapped around the tree or post. The loop you will use depends upon the distance of the two trees or posts that you are connecting the hammock to (Fig. 1).
Pull the longer strap towards the second tree or post until tight (see Fig. 2). Excess length on the other end of the strap will hang down.
Loop the free end of the suspension strap through the hammock loop. Place the carabiner on the end loop and attach it to the desired loop on the longer side of the suspension strap (see Fig. 3). Close the carabiner. Test to confirm that it is securely closed.
Repeat the process for the second strap on the other tree.
Gently lower yourself into the hammock, with weight evenly distributed, to determine if the straps need to be moved up or down to achieve the optimum height of 18 in. (46 cm) above the ground. Adjust as needed.

HANGING OPTIONS:
Tree Mounting – Find two live trees approx. 12 ft. (3.66 m) apart with a diameter of at least 12 in. (30.5 cm).
Post Mounting – If only one or no trees are available, use pressure- treated posts with a minimum dimension of 4 x 4 in. (10 x 10 cm) cemented into the ground at least 2 ft. (6 m) deep. Sandy or loose earth requires longer posts and deeper mounting. The minimum space between posts is 12 ft. (3.66 m). Check posts periodically for cracking and rotting.
Indoor Mounting as a Swing Chair – Drill 2 screwhooks that can safely hold 250 lbs. (113.4 kg) into a ceiling beam about 60 in. (1.5 m) apart. Now you can securely connect the hooks to the hammock by using the mounting ropes and carabiners. You will want the hammock to be approx. 20–24 in. (51–61 cm) off the floor.
Care and Maintenance: To prevent mildew and increase the life of your hammock, store it in a dry location when not in use. Avoid keeping in direct sunlight or rain for long periods of time or fading may occur.
Cleaning: Hand washes in cold water with mild detergent. Do not use harsh chemical cleaners or bleach. Rinse well and let it dry before storing.
Storage: Make sure the hammock is completely dry before storing it in a dry location.

CAUTION: FALLING AND STRANGULATION HAZARD!
The hammock can be unstable if not properly hung or if weight is not properly distributed. Be careful entering and exiting your hammock as injury may result. Children can become entangled in hammock strings. Do NOT leave children unattended in hammocks.
