PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE BEGINNING
*Before digging, please obey local laws by notifying your local utilities marking
organization*
1. Select an area in your yard that is reasonably level and meets the space requirement
for your equipment. Ground Space: 19’ x 15’. Play Space: 23’ x 26’.
2. Please refer to the top rail assembly sheet and assemble your top rail as instructed.
3. Position the top rail (see top rail assembly page) about 12’ from the selected spot
where you want the unit to finally stand. Using a tape measure and marker, mark
location of the swing hangers and the ladder along the top rail. (See top view on
assembly and installation instructions for measurements.)
4. Assemble swing hangers (see swing hanger assembly sheet) and attach securely to
the top rail.
5. Using the hammer, install the plug into the open end of the top rail.
6. Locate position in your yard where the upright ladder will stand. Dig the hole for the
ladder (see Installation Instruction page #1). Lay the ladder onto the ground with
the bottom of the ladder laying just over the hole where it will finally stand. Hint: Be
sure to situate the ladder so that when the unit is finally standing the rungs and the
third leg bolt will be facing as desired in your space.
7. Turn the top rail onto its side on the ground. Slide the top rail into the sleeve at the
top of the ladder and position it to the marks previously made. (see Installation
Instruction page #3). Loosely install set screws into the top of the ladder sleeve.
Bolt “A” frame legs into place (see installation instructions page #2).
8. Using two strong adults, stand the swing frame up, allowing the ladder to fall into
the hole previously dug. (Note: set will not be level at this point.) At this point,
check to make sure that the top rail is still in its proper place inside the ladder top
sleeve. Adjust as necessary by holding onto the ladder securely and pushing or
pulling the “A” frame section causing the top rail to slide inside the top sleeve. When
