Installing The Eyebolt

1. Locate ceiling joist (By Stud Finder or tapping and verifying with a small nail). Be sure to locate the exact center.

2. Using a 5/16" wood drill bit, drill a hole (approx. 5" deep) perpendicular to the ceiling. Warning! Hole must be directly in the center of the stud for maximum weight bearing capacity. Failure to do so could cause eyebolt to loosen.

3. Screw in eyebolt until all threads have disappeared into the joist. Do not loosen or adjust once in place.

Hanging the Hammock

1. Tie an overhand knot through the large S hook provided using the two overhead ropes. Be certain to maintain an equal rope length between the knot and the chair on both sides.

2. Hang the Hammock into the pre-installed Eyebolt (A3).

3. Install the wooden dowels firmly into the dowel holders (see diagram), making sure they are firmly seated, with the longest dowel overhead, the equal length dowels on the sides, and the short dowel on the footrest.

4. Verify all knots and dowel holders before sitting in the Hammock.

5. Warning! The Hammock has a rated load of 350 pounds.

6. The overhead dowel must be level or your chair may be lop-sided. Adjustment of one of the ropes may be necessary.

Adjusting Your Hammock

1. Fine-tuning of your chair is possible for maximum comfort.

2. Raise or lower the Hammock height at the eyebolt, via the overhand knot.

3. To adjust the incline of the Hammock, remove the overhead dowel. Adjust the slide knot (see diagram) back or forward equally on each side. Replace the overhead dowel firmly into the dowel holders.

4. Fully reclined sitting can be achieved by setting the side dowels virtually parallel with the overhead dowel. This is only recommended when your are familiar with the chair’s settings.
