How far in the ground must a pole be to support my hammock?
If you choose to use supports to hang your hammock, 4' x 4's are the best. They should be buried about two feet in ground. Additionally, the poles must be set in cement.

How high do I need to hang my hammock?

If my hammock appears too short for the stand, what do I do?
After verifying that stand and the hammock are compatible; i.e. deluxe or large hammocks fit 15' stands, single hammocks fit 11' stands. Hammocks ropes will contract while in their packaging. Use an extra piece of chain to stretch the hammock. The hammock will stretch to its original length once it is used.

How do I disassemble the stand?
