ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 9 — Ground Stakes:
Hammer two Ground Stakes (F) next to the Beam Legs
as shown. Secure each stake with two #8 x 2-1/2" Screws
through the pre-drilled holes.
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.
STEP 10 – Hang Swings:
Hang the Swings in the positions shown on the first page.
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 require a minimum clearance
of 350mm (13-3/4") between the bottom of each Swing Ac-
cessory and the ground.
The height of each Swing Accessory is adjusted by using a
different link in the chain. Be sure to hang the Swings Ac-
cessories with ground clearance greater than or equal to the
safety standard for your region.
STEP 8 — Nameplate:
It is important to fasten the name plate to the Swing Beam.
U.S. federal safety regulations require that the name of the
manufacturer be permanently fastened to the gym, for iden-
tification in case of warranty claim.
Center the name plate near the middle of the Beam. Use the
included #6 x 1/2" pan head screws to attach the Nameplate
to the Beam. Make sure that the screws are slightly loose.
This will keep the Nameplate from bending due to tempera-
ture and moisture changes in the wood.
