you are satisfied that the top rail is in the proper position, securely tighten the set
screws in the top sleeve of the ladder.
9. With the ladder still standing in its hole, situate the “A” frame end to the desired
position in the play area. Determine location of the “A” frame legs and mark the
holes. Move the legs out of the way and dig the holes. (Keep most of the hole to the
inside of the leg). Place the legs into the holes.
10. Measure from about the middle of the outrigger to the ground. This measurement
should be 10’. Determine the level of the swing set by using the level along the
length of the top rail. Remove from, or add soil to the holes as necessary to put the
unit to the correct height and to make it level.
11. Slide 3rd leg sleeve onto the top rail that is sleeved into the outside of the 10’
ladder.
12. Measure 5 ½’ - 6’ away from the 10’ Upright Ladder to mark and dig the hole for
the Third Leg (see #1B hole sizes for cementing).
13. Before installing the third leg, locate the third leg. Insert ⅜” x 3½” Hex Bolt and
loosely thread ⅜” Nut into the bottom hole. Nut will not thread all the way on and
bolt will be loose. (This is to act as an anchor in the concrete and does not need to
be tight.)
14. Install Third Leg by dropping the end into the hole and sliding the top into the 3rd
leg sleeve. Use the 3/8” x 2 3/4” hex bolt and 3/8” nyloc nut. Then secure 3rd leg
with set screw on under side. (see diagram #4) When properly positioned, secure
the set screws in the top of the 3rd leg sleeve.
15. Determine location of turning bar hole by placing the turning bar up to the ladder.
Mark and dig the hole. Attach the turning bar to the ladder. Check and adjust the
level of the turning bar. (See #4 fire pole and turning bar assembly.)
16. Attach Slide bracket to Ladder (See slide assembly sheet) and attach slide to
bracket as instructed.
17. Mix concrete according to package directions and pour into the holes. (See
Installation Instructions page #1.) You will use approximately 6-7 80 pound bags in
the ladder hole and 1 ½ bags in each of the leg holes.
18. Allow the concrete to cure completely before you use your swing set (3-5 days).
19. Attach chains and swing seats and enjoy your Component Playground.
