STEP 4: With the help of two additional adults it is now time to begin to lift your stand up using the X-Stand winch. Start by
making sure the winch switch is engaged. Begin turning the crank lever slowly. Remember to watch the winch strap to be sure it
doesn't get wound up in the crank gears. Guiding it by hand may be necessary. Begin lifting the treestand slowly (Fig 10).
Figure 10
*NOTE: If you see the swivel pegs starting to pull out or moving towards you ... STOP Immediately! If the winch seems
extremely hard to crank or doesn't seem to want to lift the weight of the stand, stop and begin the let-down process. Unlock the
winch lever with your free hand while still keeping pressure on the crank handle with the other. Slowly let down the treestand to
the ground by turning the crank handle without letting go of it!
Once the stand is on safely on the ground check everything and reread the steps in this manual to be sure it is set up correctly,
and correct as necessary. If there are no issues, continue cranking slowly. This cranking process should be very slow to be
as safe as possible. Always have two responsible adults with you to help watch the lifting process. Pay close attention to the
winch strap and the stand to be sure the stand doesn't start to sway and lean left or right. If this happens stop immediately and
lower the stand. Re-evaluate your set up. Swaying left and right can be caused by the winch not being fastened parallel with the
treestand, or the swivel pegs not placed on even ground or not being properly installed on the ladder.
