Installation Instructions and Information -
Place the equipment on level ground, not less than 6 ft (1.8 m) from any structure or
obstruction such as a fence, garage, house, overhanging branches, laundry lines, or
electrical wires.
Do not install home playground equipment over concrete, asphalt, packed earth, or any other
hard surface.
A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury to the equipment user.
Operating Instructions -
Observing the following statements and warnings reduces the likelihood of serious or fatal injury.
We recommend on-site adult supervision for children of all ages Instruct children not to walk close to, in front of,
behind, or between moving items.
Instruct children not to twist swing chains or ropes or loop them over the top support bar since this may reduce the strength
of the chain or rope.
Instruct children to avoid swinging empty seats.
Teach children to sit in the center of the swings with their full weight on the seats.
Instruct children not to use the equipment in a manner other than intended.
Instruct children not to get off equipment while it is in motion.
Parent to dress children appropriately (examples would include the use of well-fitting shoes and the avoidance of ponchos,
scarfs, and other loose-fitting clothing that is potentially hazardous while using equipment).
Instruct children not to climb when the equipment is wet.
Check the openings between rollers and sliding surfaces of roller slides for foreign materials that could be potentially
hazardous to users.
Verify that suspended climbing ropes, chain, or cable cannot be looped back on itself.
Instruct children not to attach items to the playground equipment that are not specifically designed for use with the
equipment, such as, but not limited to, jump ropes, clothesline, pet leashes, cables and chain as they may cause a
strangulation hazard.
Maintenance Instructions -
Check all nuts and bolts twice monthly during the usage season for tightness and tighten as required. It is particularly
important that this procedure be followed at the beginning of each season.
Remove plastic swing seats and take indoors or do not use when the temperature drops 40°F.

Check all coverings for bolts and sharp edges twice monthly during usage season to be certain they are in place.
