and communication efforts are unsuccessful, you must have a personal plan for recovery/escape before you ascend the tree - prolonged
suspension in a harness can be fatal. It is important to exercise the legs by pushing against the tree or doing other forms of continuous
leg exercises to avoid blood pooling while being suspended. Hunters with varying degrees of physical fitness may require different
plans to recover/escape to avoid effects of prolonged suspension. Have a personal plan and practice it in the presence of a responsible
adult before leaving the ground. No escape/recovery plan will work for every hunter on every tree in every circumstance. Only you can
determine the best recovery/escape plan for your hunting situation and you must have a recovery/escape plan for your situation before
leaving the ground. Hunt from ground when self-recovery/escape ability is absent.
• Practice the use of a FBFAHS at ground level in the presence of responsible adult to understand proper use and experience the feeling of
hanging suspended before using in a hunting environment.
• If there are any questions or concerns with instruction, warnings, or proper use, do not use the treestand. Contact the manufacturer. Do not use
