Please discontinue the use of the following Climbing Treestands immediately:

The manufacturer has recently discovered that some cable assemblies on certain 2014 climbing treestands may break during use, causing a fall hazard to users.

Note: To determine if the stock you have is affected by this recall, identify the batch number on the side of the box. This batch number will be preceded with BN: and be directly above the weight and country of origin. The batch number is also identified on a small tag riveted to the stand.

Please call the manufacturer on 1-800-268-5077 from 8:00 A.M. to 4:30 P.M. CST

Who still has the box for the treestand that they have been using for a year? They need to have a better way...

No problem. It was sort of hidden at the end of their notice. Like you, the box is the first thing that goes for me.
