Congratulations on the purchase of your new playset. Your playset has been professionally installed by the best in the
business and we hope your children enjoy many years of safe play on it.
This Owner’s Manual contains helpful information concerning playset safety, operation, maintenance, and playground
surfacing materials. Always keep the safety of your children in mind as your children use the playset. Before your
children play on the set, please prepare the “Safety Zone” with suitable Playground Surfacing Material and review the
Operation Instructions with them to ensure their safety.
This equipment is recommended for use by
children 3 to 10 years of age
. It is
not intended for public use. Leisure
Time Products does not warranty any of its structures when they are subjected to commercial use such as:
Daycare, Preschool, Nursery School
,
Recreational Park, or any similar Commercial Application.
WARNING
: This Symbol points out important safety instructions which, if not followed, could endanger the
personal safety of yourself and your children and/or damage your property. You MUST read and follow all
instructions in this manual before attempting to use this playset.
WARNING:
Children must NOT use this playset until it has been completely assembled, the installation team has
indicated it is ready for use, and the safety zone has been prepared with an impact absorbing surface material.
PLAY SET SAFETY ZONE
Your playset was installed in a location of your choosing. The area under and around the perimeter of the set is
considered the “Safety Zone.” The Safety Zone must remain free of any structure or obstruction such as fences, rocks,
yard equipment, sheds, overhanging branches, laundry lines, or electrical wires.
WARNING:
Objects or obstructions within 6-feet of any part of the playset are considered hazardous and should
not be introduced or allowed to remain within the Safety Zone. The location of the playset, and the corresponding
Safety Zone, was chosen by you to provide enough room so children can use the equipment safely
.
SUGGESTED PLAYGROUND SURFACING
After your playset has been installed, the area within the Safety Zone and under the playset should be prepared with an
impact absorbing material to reduce the likelihood of injury in the event of a fall.
Do not install loose fill surfacing over hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt.
Shredded bark mulch, wood chips, fine sand and fine gravel, are added as shock absorbing materials after
assembly. If used properly these materials can absorb some of the impact of a child’s fall.
All surface material should extend a minimum of 6 feet in all directions around the play area.
Use containment, such as digging out around the perimeter and/or lining the perimeter with landscape edging.
Rake the surface periodically to prevent compaction and maintain appropriate depths.
Installations of rubber tiles or poured-in-place surfaces (other than loose-fill materials) generally require a
professional and are not “do-it-yourself” projects.
Owners shall use Playground Surfacing Materials (other than loose-fill material) which comply with the safety
standard ASTM F1292 Standard Specification of Impact Attenuation of Surfacing Materials within the Use Zone of
Playground Equipment.
