581-638 8’ Modern Bipod 6 Seat Swing
GENERAL USE/FALL ZONE & FOOTING RECOMMENDATIONS:
Single Axis Swings:
The Use/Fall Zone should extend to the front & rear, a minimum distance of
twice the height of the Top Rail above the resilient surfacing material. The
Use/Fall Zone to the sides should follow the general recommendations of six
feet minimum. This six-foot zone may overlap that of an adjacent swing
ructure.
st
Rotating Swings:
The Use/Fall Zone should extend in all directions the length of the swing
chain plus six feet. The six-foot minimum fall zone from the supporting
structure also applies, and may overlap the six-foot zone of an adjacent
swing structure.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS:
Check MONTHLY for loose bolts, damaged or broken parts. Tighten and/or
replace immediately. On swings and any equipment that uses S-hooks and/or
Swing Hangers check the bearing surfaces for wear. Replace any parts that
show a reduction of 25% from the original size.
ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION:
NOTE:
All threaded ends of bolts protruding beyond nuts must be cut off and/or
peened to eliminate sharp edges. No more than two threads should extend
beyond face of nut. All washers, “T” nuts and other fastener hardware
used on round pipe or tubing must be hammered down to conform to the
curved underlying surface to eliminate catch points. DO NOT tighten nuts
more than hand-tight until entire assembly is completed.
STEP #1:
Assemble swing frame on side, on ground. If more than one section,
assemble section by section. Layout parts so that when frame is erected,
legs will be in approximately correct position.
