Operating Instructions

To use your hammock, gently sit in the center, allowing the fabric to conform to your body. For optimal comfort, adjust the J-hooks to achieve your preferred hammock height and tension. The hammock is designed for relaxation and light swaying motions.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Hammock Fabric

The cotton hammock fabric can be hand washed with mild soap and cold water. Air dry completely before storing. Do not bleach or tumble dry.

Cleaning the Steel Stand

Wipe the steel stand with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn stains, use a mild detergent. Ensure the stand is dry before storage to prevent rust.

Storage

When not in use, especially during inclement weather or off-season, disassemble the hammock and stand. Store all components in the provided carrying bag in a dry, cool place to prolong product life.

Troubleshooting

Hammock feels too low/high

Adjust the J-hooks on the frame bars to a different height setting. There are multiple holes for customization.

Stand feels unstable

Ensure all bolts and wing nuts are securely tightened. Verify that the stand is placed on a completely flat and level surface.

Squeaking noises

Apply a small amount of lubricant to the J-hooks or any moving parts where metal meets metal.
