Preparing the foundation
The play system must be fi rmly anchored to
the subsoil, so that the supporting elements
are secure against lifting or tipping during
normal or any foreseeable incorrect use.
This fi xing must be tailored to existing ground
conditions / qualities.The instructions show a
suggested way of anchoring the play system
using ground anchors in concrete according
to the European standard EN 71-8.
Construction
Only
original Karibu components
and
original Karibu accessories
should be
used.
The guarantee and the GS licence shall expire
in the case of
construction and maintenance
not carried out in accordance with this
document
.
First of all, check the delivered package for
completeness, dimensional accuracy and
quality. Unfortunately, there may be a loss of
quality caused by transportation and storage.
Report any faulty parts to us before starting
construction so that we can quickly provide
you with a replacement. To do this, please
contact our service hotline.
Select a level surface for the construction.
You must maintain a
safety distance
of 2 m
from the equipment to other
structures/obstacles such as washing
lines, fences, branches, etc. In the case
of swings, there are additional safety
distances which can be found in the
relevant instructions.
Slides should never be constructed so that
they face south. These heat up in the sun and
then can no longer be used.
The ground below and next to the equipment
must be soft. Hard surfaces such as asphalt
or concrete should not be used, otherwise
children may be seriously injured should
they fall from the equipment. Safety mats
are commercially available. The risk to your
child will be minimized if these are placed
under and around the equipment. We also
recommend the use of bark mulch, fi ne sand
or similar. These should be applied in a layer
30 cm thick. This layer must be increased
to 40 cm in the case of possible falls from
heights above 1.50 m.
First, please read the construction instructions
through carefully. The drawings in these
construction instructions are not true to the
original; they are solely used for illustration
purposes. There may be technical differences
and differences in appearance.
Wood is sometimes a very temperamental
material, so all screw connections should
be pre-drilled. Otherwise, the wood can
easily split along its length and splinter. The
instructions state which wooden parts need
pre-drilling and the drill diameter required.
The equipment must be fi rmly anchored to the
ground in accordance with the instructions.
Do not allow your children to help with the
construction! The assembly should only be
carried out by adults.
Caution: Small parts
can be swallowed!
After construction, you must test the
equipment’s steadiness and stability. The
equipment may only be used when this
has been done without any problems being
identifi ed.
After construction, make sure that you do not
leave any tools, screws or similar under or
around the equipment.
Caution: Small parts
can be swallowed!
For painting the equipment, do not use
anything that will make the equipment smooth
or slippery, such as varnish.
All cut edges must be rounded off
with
sandpaper once construction is complete.
Service hotline
Dear customer, we require your assistance in
our continuous improvement of our products.
This is why we are asking you to keep this
sheet and to state the tracking number on the
complaint form in any conversations with our
offi ce-based employees.

Goods collection
For reasons of liability, the goods must be
placed at the property boundary. Pack goods
up as a secure package, ideally tied using
two or three (depending on the length of the
goods) ropes or straps, evenly spaced.
The original cross-supports must also be
placed under the goods, evenly spaced.
Maintenance
Not only do all types of constructions and
technical equipment have to be safely
manufactured and installed. Every new object
of any type is stressed by use and subject to
wear and tear to a greater or lesser extent.
This can reduce the level of safety that was
present at the time of manufacture to a greater
or lesser extent, and the equipment can thus
become a hazard for the health of your child.
This is why you should check the following
things before each use and rectify any faults
before play begins. You should carry out
maintenance at least once per month, even if
the equipment has not been used in this time.
Wood reacts to environmental infl uences.
Depending on the weather, the wood may
swell or shrink. This causes dimensional
fl uctuations and splits, causes knots to fall
out, etc. and screw connections can become
loose. This cannot be avoided.
For this reason:
• Remove any splinters caused in this way
before the equipment is used.
• Check that all screw fi ttings are fi rm, and
tighten if necessary.
• Regularly check the condition of the fl oor
surfaces and the stability of equipment on
posts!
• Are ropes, swing seats, etc. still
undamaged?
• Is the anchoring still suffi cient?
• Defective components must be replaced
before use.
• All moving parts made of metal must be
oiled.
• All covers on screws or sharp edges must
be checked and replaced if necessary.
• Swing seats, chains, ropes and other
accessories must be checked for signs of
wear. If necessary, a replacement must be
made in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Use
The play system is authorised for children
between 3 and 14 years of age of weights
below 50 kg.
Always supervise children playing on the
equipment.
Incorrect use releases the manufacturer from
its responsibilities, and this also applies to the
installation of other materials such as heavy
chains, swings, etc.
This play equipment is authorised for
private use only and not public use.
Caution
Do not
spin empty swings, etc.
Do not
jump off the swings.
Do not
swing at an angle or wind up the
swings.
Do not
run into the swing area or disturb
other children when they are swinging.
Do not
hang down head fi rst from the wooden
components.
Do not
twist up the ropes or wind them
around parts of the body.
Risk of crushing!
Do not
allow children to wear the following
when playing: clothes with long ribbons or
cords, baggy clothing or jewellery. These can
become caught and strangle children.
In the case of cold weather, bring the
accessory parts indoors and ban the use of
the equipment. As the ground freezes in the
case of frost, the safety of your child is no
longer guaranteed if your child should fall.
Please be aware that the equipment will
become slippery in the case of rain. You
should only allow your child to play on dry
equipment.
