Here are some maintenance tips required to insure safe enjoyment of your equipment for years to come.
A. At the beginning of each usage season and every two weeks during, check: nuts and bolts and tighten as needed,
swing seats, chains, and wood components for signs of deterioration and replace if necessary.
B. On a yearly basis, we recommend that you coat your playset with a sealant or preservative. You may also want to spot
sand any areas prior to sealing. Be sure that the sealant you select is non-toxic and child safe.
C. Remove plastic swing seats and take indoors or do not use when the temperature drops below 0
º
F.
Choosing A Location For Your Playset
Do not install home playground equipment indoors,
or over concrete, asphalt, packed earth, grass, carpet
or any other hard surface. A fall onto a hard surface
can result in serious or fatal injury.
Responsible on-site adult supervision is one of the
most important contributions to children’s safety that
you can make. Jack & June strongly recommends on-
site adult supervision of children of all ages. Safe
swinging skills need to be taught to children, just like
any other physical activity.
The weight limit for any single user on Jack & June
play equipment is 200 pounds. Limit the number of
users to one on each swing.
When the time comes to disassemble and dispose of
the play equipment, do so in such a way that no
hazards will exist at the time the equipment is
discarded.
If you have any questions about your playset, or are in need of replacement parts, call 1-800-GO-SWING.
Please keep these instructions for future reference.
Maintaining Your Playset

When selecting your structure site, always keep the
child’s safety in mind. Here are some recommendations
to help you create a safe play area.
A. The playset should be located on level ground. The
stationary components are
to be a minimum
REQUIRED
of six feet from any structure or obstruction such as a
fence, garage, house, tree or overhanging branches,
electrical wires or clotheslines.
Any swinging equipment is also
to be a
REQUIRED
minimum distance twice the height of the swing beam
away from these obstructions or structures as well. We
also recommend that you do not install your playset
near a lake, river, swimming pool or other water hazard.
B.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC)
recommends that you install and maintain a resilient
surface under your play equipment. The CPSC’s
Consumer Information Sheet for Playground Surfacing
Materials at the end of this manual. A resilient surface,
should be installed after the equipment has been
completely assembled according to these instructions.
The equipment must rest on solid ground. Please note
that this product has a maximum fall height of 8’.
