You should now have completed your Arundel Climbing Frame. It is now time to check all screws and
bolts to ensure they are fully tightened. Also check that all platforms are level and all posts are
upright. Ensure the two towers line up with each other. Once you are fully happy with the above, it
is time to concrete (Post-Crete) the uprights, bottom of stairs and the swing frame supports. When
the concrete has gone off (set) you can replace the 50mm of grass that was removed at the start of
construction. If you use concrete, at least 24 hours must pass before anyone uses the climbing
frame. Post-Crete sets faster so you may use the climbing frame in most cases within an hour.
WARNING:
This climbing frame is for family domestic use only. It s designed for outdoor use by children aged 3-
12 years. The climbing frame should be sited on level ground at least 2m away from any structure or
obstruction such as a fence, house, garage, washing line, tree branches or electrical wires.
The climbing frame should not be sited over a hard surface such as concrete asphalt or similar hard
surface. Lawn or bark chippings are perfectly acceptable as suitable play surfaces.
MAINTENANCE:
Your climbing frame is made from wood, which is a natural product. As such it can be affected by
changes in the weather and moisture in the air. All main parts (swing beam, tower uprights, tower
platform and load bearing timbers) should be checked regularly and maintained to avoid the
structure becoming hazardous. We strongly recommend that all fixings (screws, nuts and bolts) are
checked regularly and tightened as required and at the end of winter all ropes, nuts and bolts should
be checked for tightness, decay and general condition. If in any doubt, replace these items at once.
You should view ropes in the same light as a car tyre in that they are subject to wear and tear. They
should be replaced when after inspection you believe they have reached the end of their useful life.
