HOW TO HANG
YOUR HAMMOCK
Read instructions before use and keep for future reference. Failure
to read these instructions before use can lead to an increased risk
of injury. When installing always check with a qualified builder for
safety.
WARNING
:
DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM LOAD OF 140KGS
On each end of the hammock, tie two basic overhand knots (as close together as
possible) approximately 10cm from the end of the rope to form a double knot – see
figure 2.
Wind ropes on each end of the hammock around a fixed point (e.g. tree trunks). Loop
the rope end through the knot and tighten the ropes to ensure that the ropes will not
slip downwards before using hammock.
Hook and lock the carabiner into the ropes as shown in figure 2. Ensuring that the hook
opening is pointing downwards.

Hang the hammock loops at roughly the same height. When the hammock is in use it should
sit 20-30cm above the ground. Alternatively rope can be used following the below guidelines.
