To release the foot pedal, first raise the red lock into the unlock position (green).
Push the foot pedal upwards to open the claws. Continue pushing in a step-by-step action until claws are in a vertical position.

Give the trunk a straight and even cut. Set the trunk in the center of the stand over the spike. Make sure the trunk and spike have contact but do not use force. Do not drill a hole into the trunk.

Pump the foot pedal until you hear the ´Ding´ and the lock automatically slides into place. The claws now have optimal contact to the trunk and the tree stand is now secured.
Add tap water to keep your tree fresh. Slowly fill the water tank until the level indicator measurements are clearly visible.
Do not overfill the tank. Use the indicator measurements to guide you, and stop before the red zone is fully visible.
