SAFE PLAY AREA

SELECTING THE CORRECT LOCATION FOR YOUR PLAY PRODUCT IS IMPORTANT FOR 

YOUR CHILDREN’S SAFETY AND THE PRODUCT’S LONGEVITY.

Play Set Dimensions:

 •  MODEL PS10CLATL ans PTCLATL Swing Sets have ground dimensions of 10'-7" x 7'-10".
 •  This Swing Set requires a level ground surface of 22'-7" x 29'-3' for a Safe Play Area 
 •  Additional accessories may increase the size of the Safe Play Area.
 •  The maximum fall height for your swing set is 87" as measured from the top of the Top Ladder.

Safe Play Area:

 •  The Safe Play Area refers to a zone extending 6' (2 meters) beyond the Play Set on all sides, including the slide 

and the space above the Play Set. Because children may deliberately jump from a moving swing, the Safe Play 

Area must be extended to 14' (4.27 meters) in front of and behind a swinging Accessory.

 •  The ground surface must be level. Installing your Play Set on sloping ground can cause it to lean or “rack”. 

This leaning puts additional stress on all connections and joints and in time will cause those connections to 

loosen and fail.

 •  The Safe Play Area must be free of all structures, landscaping, trees and branches, rocks, wires, and other 

obstacles to safe play. Children can be seriously injured running, or swinging into these obstacles.

 •  Remove all tripping hazards from the Safe Play Area. Tripping hazards include; roots, stumps, rocks, landscap-

ing, sprinkler heads, railroad ties, plumbing and electrical connections.

 •  Do not install your Play Set over concrete, gravel, asphalt, packed earth, or any other hard surface. The follow-

ing is a list of recommended ground covers from the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
