You might have a really hard time finding a manual for it. I just did a look around for one and found nothing...so for the heck of it I looked up manuals for tree stands I own and I had a hard time, And I know the brands and models of mine.


one a side note.
if you want backpack straps. you can buy them from cabela's for 17$
