Important advice
To drill the holes use a sharp drill and fi rst put the plastic part of the plug in the hole. Then screw the metal nail into the
plug instead of hammering it. This way, you avoid damaging the head of the nail and unfi xing will be easy.
Replacement steering wheels
Through intensive use, the plastic mechanism in the steering wheels is subject to wear. The
wearing of the steering wheel and the other plastic parts, causes play on the system involving
necessary replacement after a few years.
The steering wheel can’t come loose from the green plastic mounting plate, as the cap nut is
permanently glued onto the metal shaft. Replacing the whole system is not diffi cult though, as
the green plastic mounting plate together with the steering wheel can be unscrewed from the
board/post/play and a new steering system can be screwed.
Anchoring or not?
According to the European standard, playground equipment
needs to be anchored. Anchoring of this specifi c equipment
is not required if installed on a school playground with
supervision. In case the playground is only used by the school
itself, the security risk due to not anchoring the equipment is
relatively small. If there is no anchoring we defi nitely advise to
mark the equipment’s position on the playground in order to
be able to place it back correctly after temporary relocation,
respecting the required 150 cm obstacle-free area.
In case of anchoring
The equipment is anchored with the 6 nail plugs supplied,
using the pre-drilled holes. Determine the exact position of the
equipment, draw its outline with chalk and mark the position of
the 6 pre-drilled holes for the nail plugs on the hard surface.
Move the equipment. Drill the holes with a 8 mm stone drill.
Move the equipment back in the right position and secure with
the nail plugs. Use an angle screwdriver to facilitate screwing.
