INDOOR HANGING INSTRUCTIONS
- Locate a Ceiling Joist by tapping or using a stud finder. The beam must be a solid straight-grained structural joist, usually found every 16 to 18 inches from each other.
- Vertically drill a 5/16-inch pilot hold in the middle of the joist for the screw to go into.
- We recommend that you rotate the screw eye in all the way to the eye for best support.
- Tie the 2 free ends of the chair ropes onto the large S-hook by using an overhand knot.
- Hang the S-hook onto the screw eye and determine the rope length that suites your ceiling height.
- The assembled chair should hang approximately 12 to 14 inches from the floor, based on your personal preference.
- You may need to make some adjustments to the rope until you find the right sitting height to accommodate your own height.
- Insert the dowels deeply into the boot cups.
- Get a good book or crossword puzzle and get ready to Relax!
INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANGING THE CHAIR OUTDOORS
- Tie a separate loop of rope over the tree limb, and drop it down to a height one can reach from the ground.
- Follow the hanging instructions from the instructions for Hanging the Chair Indoors beginning at Step 3.
- Once the chair is assembled, hook the large S-hook onto the rope loop of the chair.
- Some adjustments may need to be made until you find the perfect height for your desired relaxation.
- You may consider purchasing a Tree Strap & Carabineer Clamp for quick hook-up and release.
Machine Washing
Holding the two hanging end rings in your hands, bring them together, folding the hammock chair in half. Tie the hammock chair together with string just below the hanging rings. Tie the hammock chair together again, at the opposite end, and once more in the middle of the hammock chair. This should prevent the metal rings from becoming entangled with the string bed of the hammock chair, and the strings themselves from getting tangled as well. Put the tied up hammock chair into a pillowcase, and tie the pillowcase closed. Be sure to tie it securely, as the washing machine has rigorous agitation, and you do not want the hammock chair to come out of the pillow. Use mild detergent to wash. It's important to not use bleach. After washing, carefully remove hammock chair from pillowcase and untie. Hang up hammock chair and spread out as much as possible to dry completely. Do not put the hammock chair in a tumble dryer.
Hand Washing
Holding the two hanging rings in your hands, bring them together, folding the hammock chair in half. Tie the hammock chair together with string just below the hanging rings. Tie the hammock chair together again, at the opposite end, and once more in the middle of the hammock chair. This should prevent the metal rings from becoming entangled with the string bed of the hammock chair, and the strings themselves from getting tangled as well. In a large sink or bathtub, immerse the hammock chair in water mixed with a mild detergent. It's important to not use bleach. With your hands, agitate the water until you feel the hammock chair is clean. After washing, carefully untie and unfold the hammock chair. Hang up hammock chair and spread out to dry completely. Do not put the hammock chair in a tumble dryer.
Storage
After first making sure your hammock chair is clean and completely dry, hold the two hanging rings in your hands, bring them together, folding the hammock chair in half. Tie the hammock chair together with string just below the hanging rings, and again just above the point where the hammock bed begins, to prevent tangling. When storing, it's important to protect against moisture, soiling and critters. The easiest way to prevent these threats to your hammock chair is to use a storage bag made of outdoor, weather resistant, durable fabric that allows the hammock chair to breath. If you do not have a storage bag, hang the hammock chair from its metal rings in your garage or basement, or anywhere it will remain dry and out of the way. If you find any mold or mildew when you bring your hammock chair out the next season, we recommend using a mild detergent.
