your swing set from. We appreciate your purchase and know that you will enjoy your play
system for many years to come.
Important note:
Wood has some natural defects such as knots, surface cracks, etc. We
reject parts that are structurally defective. We use a high-quality timber in our structures;
however, you should inspect each part for splinters or rough spots and sand them smooth
to prevent injury.
After familiarising yourself with all the components, read all instructions thoroughly.
Reading instructions after you have studied the parts will help you understand more clearly
the installation process and help to eliminate unnecessary mistakes.
Pay close attention to the diameter and length of each bolt and screw.
Never tighten hardware completely at first. It helps to have some adjustment for bolt
alignment while you are attaching parts together. After everything is square, tighten each
joint.
After the main unit is assembled it is critical that the floor is level and square. If the main
frame is not level, the walls and floor will be out of square.
After your complete installation, make sure every bolt, screw and nut are tight and every
board is secure. Wood will expand and contract with the seasons.
Place the set on level ground, not less than 2 metre from any structure or obstruction such
as a fence, garage, house, overhanging branches, laundry lines or electrical wires.
All 6mm and 10mm lag bolts must have pre-drilled holes 38mm to 50mm deep. Use a
3.175mm drill bit for the 6mm and 100mm lag bolt. Use pre-drilled holes in facias as a
reference for placing lag bolt pilot holes.
If a board lifts or rises causing a gap between boards when running in lag bolt or screws,
back out the screw or lag bolt and press or apply pressure (but not enough to crack or break
board) while re-running in the lag bolt or screw in the same hole.
Do not over tighten bolts, lag bolts or screws. You can damage boards, break hardware
and/or strip out the hardware. When using a hammer do not beat on the hardware, but
gently tap it in. Never beat on the wood as it will leave marks.
Levelling Your Swing Set During Assembly
Complete the steps which will be the basic frame of the fort [i.e. four corner posts with base
(sand box boards) and deck supports].
Position in the most level area chosen for the play set, keeping in mind the location and size
of the swing beam, ladder, slides, etc. That extend off the fort.
Once the frame is in the final position, check for vertical and horizontal levelness to
determine which side(s) will need to be dug into the ground to level the play set.
