restricted to the actual weld. When your equipment is built, Component Playgrounds
will repair this damage using a cold galvanizing compound spray along with a top coat
of silver aluminum. This is a time tested and durable process. However, when you are
inspecting your playground equipment, if you notice that some surface rust has
appeared on the welds, simply apply a fresh coat of the cold galvanizing compound
and the silver aluminum top coat to keep your structure looking new. (These spray
products
can be purchased in aerosol cans (“spray paint”) at most hardware stores and
at Component Playgrounds.)

Plastic Lumber Platforms:
If you have purchased a structure which includes a
platform, the plastic lumber does not need to be finished or stained. It is 100%
maintenance free. However, you may need to occasionally hose it down to remove
dirt and other debris that may collect after many hours of use by happy children.
6.
Vinyl Canopies:
If you have purchased a structure which includes a vinyl canopy, this
product should be inspected occasionally for wear and will need to be replaced as
necessary. Depending upon your environmental conditions, the normal life
expectancy of the vinyl canopy is 3 – 5 years.
7.
Swing Seats:
These should be inspected at least twice annually and should be replaced
as necessary.
8.
Slides:
Slides should never be lifted at the bottom. Lifting the slide at the bottom will
almost always cause the slide to crack at the top where it has been attached to
the platform or bracket. Cracks and wear such as is caused by this practice are
easily identifiable and will not be covered under the product warranty.
Slides should be inspected at least annually to ensure that the sliding surface is in
good condition. Also inspect the side rails to be sure that the plastic has not been cut
or gouged in any manner which would present the risk of injury while sliding.
9.
Fasteners:
All fasteners should be periodically inspected to make certain that they are
tight and secure. Re-secure as
necessary.
*For Safety please inspect all moving parts on a regular basis. (At Least Yearly)
Especially paying attention to wear within the swing hanger.
