Installation Instructions
1. Select an area in your yard that is reasonably level and meets the space
requirement for your equipment. Ground Space: 13’ x 12’. Play Space: 17’
x 24’.
2. Refer to the top rail assembly sheet and assemble the top rail as shown.
3. Position the top rail (See top rail assembly page.) about 12’ from the
selected spot where you want the unit to finally stand. Using a tape
measure and marker, mark location of the swing hangers and the ladder
along the top rail. (see top view on
assembly and installation instructions for measurements.)
4. Assemble the swing hangers (see swing hanger assembly sheet) and
attach securely to the top rail.
5. Using a hammer, install the plug into the open end of the top rail.
6. Locate the spot in your yard where the upright ladder will stand. Dig the
hole for the ladder (see Installation Instructions page #1). Lay the ladder
onto the ground with the bottom of the ladder laying just over the hole
where it will finally stand. Hint: Be sure to situate the ladder so that when
the unit is finally standing the rungs and the third leg bolt will be facing as
desired in your space.
7. Turn the top rail onto its side on the ground. Slide the top rail into the
sleeve at the top of the ladder and position it to the marks previously made.
(see Installation Instructions page #3). Loosely install set screws into the
top of the ladder sleeve. Insert the legs and bolt them into place. Insert and
secure the set screw to the leg. (see Installation Instructions page #2)
8. Using two strong adults, stand the swing frame up, allowing the ladder to
fall into the hole previously dug. (Note: set will not be level at this point.) At
this point, check to make sure that the top rail is still in its proper place
inside the ladder top sleeve. Adjust as necessary by holding onto the
ladder securely and pushing or pulling the “A” frame section causing the
top rail to slide inside the top sleeve. When you are satisfied that the top
