ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 31 — Swing Beam & Swings:
Install the Swing Beam as instructed by the assembly
guide included with the Beam.
Hang the Swings and Ring Trapeze in the positions
shown at right.
U.S. safety standards require a minimum clearance
of 8" from the bottom of each Swing Accessory to
the ground. U.K. (& E.U.) safety standards re-
quire a minimum clearance of 350mm (13-3/4")
between the bottom of each Swing Accessory
and the ground.
The height of each Swing Accessory is ad-
justed by using a different link in the chain.
Be sure to hang the Swings Accessories
with ground clearance greater than or
equal to the safety standard for your
region.
STEP 30 — Slide:
Place your Slide in the opening in the tower front as shown.
Check that the Slide extends out perpendicular from the play
set.
Using the holes in the slide for guides, drill 5/16" diameter
holes through the Platform Boards and secure the Slide us-
ing 1/4" x 1" Truss Head Bolts from the top and 1/4" Weld
Nuts from below.
Note: Depending on the Slide, you may find the holes you
drill encounter a framing member. If so, stop drilling after
piercing the Deck Board. Loosen the Deck Board and insert
the Weld Nuts from the underside. If desired, a 1" spade drill
bit can be used to clear a space for the base of the Weld Nut
in the Framing Member. Re-attach the Platform Board and
continue securing the Slide.
STEP 32 — Ground Stakes:
Hammer two Ground Stakes next to the Front Left Post and Back Right Post as shown.
The top of the Ground Stake should be minimum of 1/8" below the top of the Sandbox Sides.
Secure each stake to the adjacent Sandbox Side using two #10 x 2" Screws through the
pre-drilled holes.
Hammer Ground Stakes next to the Access Ladder and Cargo Upright as shown. Secure
each stake with two #10 x 2-1/2" Screws through the pre-drilled holes. Secure the Beam
Legs in the same manner.
Note: Do NOT use concrete to set Ground Stakes. Pound a metal spike or rod into the
ground to start a hole in hard or rocky ground.
Inspect your work; make sure all fasteners are secured properly and the
area is clear of hazards before allowing children on the Swing Set.
