INSTALLATION OF HAMMOCK:
STEP 1 ..First determine where you would like to hang the hammock. It may be hung between two
posts, on our specially designed hammock stands, on your porch, or just about anywhere you
prefer. Ideally, the space in which you plan to hang your hammock should be 18 inches greater
than the overall length of your hammock. ALWAYS TEST YOUR HAMMOCK CAREFULLY PRIOR TO
EACH USE TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT IT IS HUNG SECURELY AND IN SAFE CONDITION.
STEP 2 ..If you are installing the hammock where a wooden surface will hold an eye hook; such as
between trees, posts, or wall studs, observe the following:
a. ..MAKE CERTAIN THE WOODEN OBJECT IS AT LEAST SIX INCHES IN DIAMETER AND THAT THE
WOOD IS SUITABLE TO HOLD THE EYE HOOK. SOME WOODS ARE VERY SOFT, SUCH AS WIL-
LOW, PALM OR BEECH, AND MAY NOT HOLD THE HAMMOCK WHEN IN USE.
b. ..Drill 3/16" pilot hole 1" deep at each installation point approximately 5' to 6' above the
ground. The exact height will depend on the distance between the two points of installa-
tion and how high you wish to hang the hammock. (See Figure A - reverse).
c. ..Screw an eye hook in each of the pilot holes drilled. Use a screwdriver partially inserted in
the eye of the hook for leverage while screwing the hook in place. BE SURE TO SCREW THE
HOOK COMPLETELY INTO THE WOOD UNTIL THE EYE IS SNUG AGAINST ITS MOUNTING
LOCATION. WHERE THE HAMMOCK IS MOUNTED USING A WALL STUD, BE CERTAIN THAT
THE EYE HOOK IS DIRECTLY IN THE CENTER OF THE STUD AND IS SECURELY EMBEDDED. CAU-
TION: DO NOT CONTINUE TO TIGHTEN THE SCREW ONCE IT IS EMBEDDED.
