Owner’s Manual Play Set

Please refer to the Assembly section of the Assembly Manual for Maximum Fall Height
Positioning Your Playcenter
1. The Playcenter is designed to be installed on a level surface by an Adult with an Adult
helper . Place in a flat area of your yard to minimize ground preparation.
2. Choose a level location for the equipment. This can reduce the likelihood of the play set
tipping over and loose-fill surfacing material washing away during heavy rains.
3. Place the equipment 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.
4. Provide enough room so that the children can use the equipment safely. For example, for
structures with multiple play activities, a slide should not exit in front of a swing.
5. It is a good idea to place your Playcenter in an area that is convenient for adults to watch
children at play.
6. Create a site free of obstacles that could cause injuries – such as low overhanging tree
branches, overhead wires, tree stumps and/or roots, large rocks, bricks and concrete.
Additional suggestions in the Suggested Playground Surfacing Section.
7. Do not build your playset on top of surfacing material.
8. Locate bare metal platforms and slides out of direct sunlight to reduce the likelihood of serious
burns. A slide that faces north will receive the least direct sunlight.
9. Separate active and quiet activities from each other. For example, locate sandboxes away
from swings or use a guardrail or barrier to separate the sandbox from the movement of the
swings.
Suggested Playground Surfacing
‰
Do not install home playground equipment over concrete, asphalt, packed earth, grass, carpet,
or any other hard surface. A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury to the
equipment user.
‰
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.
‰
Do not apply playground surfacing until after the unit is completely constructed. Playset should
not be built on top of surfacing.
‰
Use containment, such as digging out around the perimeter and/or lining the perimeter with
landscape edging.
‰
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.
‰
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.
