Important Safety Instructions
Carefully read these warnings before using this product. Failure to follow these warnings
can result in serious injury or death.


DO NOT allow more than two children to play on the swing at any one time.

DO NOT allow children to stand on the swing seat.

DO NOT allow children to walk too close to moving parts. ALWAYS keep a safe distance to avoid being
struck by other children while playing on the swing.

DO NOT allow children to twist the swing chains or loop them over the top support bar as this may reduce
the strength of the chain.

DO NOT swing empty seats as this may cause injuries.

ALWAYS guide children to sit in the centre of the swing with their full weight placed in the seat centre and
holding on to the swing chains.

DO NOT allow children to jump off the equipment while it is in motion. ALWAYS come to a full stop before
dismounting.

ALWAYS dress children appropriately for proper play, e.g. wear well-fitted rubber sole shoes, and remove
loose or sharp items such as jewellery, hair accessories, and scarves which may become entangled in the
equipment or cause injuries.

ALWAYS make sure children remove their bike or other sports helmets before playing on the swing.

DO NOT allow children to climb on structural parts (e.g. legs, top bar). These are structural components
and are not designed for play.

ALWAYS check the swing seat or other parts exposed to the body for extreme heat from the sun before
allowing children to use the equipment.

NEVER allow children to disembark from the play equipment whilst it is still in motion.

Ensure that children are not facing the sun whilst using the equipment.

ALWAYS prevent access and secure from any unauthorised use when there is no adult supervision.

DO NOT allow pets or other animals near the equipment to prevent damage or injuries.

Adequate overhead clearance is essential. A minimum of 2.5 metres from ground level is recommended.
Provide clearance for wires, tree limbs, and other possible hazards.

If you see any worn, defective or missing parts please contact Zero Gravity customer services to order
replacement parts.

DO NOT use this equipment if the swing seat is wet. Use the swing only when the parts are clean and dry. If
the equipment is wet, the user could slip and suffer injuries.

