    Default Tree Ladder

    I bought a 20' mini ladder to use with my Gorilla Trrestand. Any suggestions when I piece the ladder together so the connections don't lock together permanently? I thought maybe a coat of vaseline would help but any suggestions? I may move the stand during the season and I don't want to have to bang them apart.

    I had a simular problem with one of my ladder stands. I had to chip off the thick coating on the outside off the part that slides into the other one. Then I put triflow on it to keep it from rusting and let it air out. If this doesnt work e-mail gorilla and ask them.

    I like mine to lock tight when they are put up. I just use a rubber mallet to beat them apart after I take it down. It works great and I have never had trouble with it working.

    Never have had problems like then when taking them down here but would do what Wiggely said he does if I did.
    Some people go to church and think about hunting. Others go hunting and think about God.
