ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To extend the life of this product, protect it from severe weather conditions. To preserve the finish,
place indoors or in a protected environment, such as a covered porch. The finish will last longer and
look better if kept out of direct sunlight and rain. The finish on this furniture will last for a lifetime if
used indoors. The sun and rain will weather the varnished finish if left out in the elements over time
(six months to one year depending on the climate).Weekly cleaning with any quality household
furniture polish will keep your furniture looking new for many years to come. If your climate has high
humidity, even if you follow the recommended cleaning intervals above, you may have problems with
mold or mildew. To remove the mold and mildew, dilute one ounce of bleach into sixteen ounces of
water and apply with a soft cloth. More than one application may be necessary. Allow to dry and
apply furniture polish to protect the finish.
REFINISHING
1. Lightly hand-sand the product with 220 fine-grit sandpaper. Scuff the old finish and smooth out any
rough areas.
2. Wipe the furniture with a clean cloth, soaked with lacquer thinner. This will remove any build-up and
sawdust left behind from sanding.
8. Place chain (GG) through holes in (C) and attach to (AA).
Complete this for both sides. Go back to all four (BB) and
tighten with (DD).

.
Locate a ceiling beam that is solid and sturdy enough to
handle the load of the porch swing and the occupants. Drill 2
vertical 5/32 inch pilot holes in the center of ceiling beam 50
inches apart. Insert ceiling hooks and screw into the holes
until no threads are exposed. The alignment of the hook
assembly should have the rotation of the movable hooks in
the same direction as the back and forth motion of the swing
in use.
CAUTION:
Incorrect installation of ceiling hooks can cause
swing to fall and possibly cause serious injury to occupants.
Be sure to drill correct size vertical pilot holes into sturdy
wood beam. Screw hooks into board so no threads are
exposed.
