INSTALLATION
1.
Do not install web swing over concrete, asphalt, packed earth, or any other hard sur-
face. See pages 5-6 for more information on proper protective surfacing material.
2.
Confirm that the supporting structure is secure, it will support at least 600 pounds, is
over level ground, has a minimum height of 7ft. and is no less than 6 ft. on all sides from
vertical elements. Web swing should have a clearance of at least 1.5 x the total length of
all the rope measured from the tree limb/horizontal beam to the metal O ring/s attach-
ment point.
3.
Tree Limb Assembly
- Test tree limb to ensure that it will hold the weight limit of
600 lbs. safely. Obtain additional rope to attach the Web Riderz to the horizontal (limb)
support. The rope used should not be less than the quality, durability and strength of
UV stabilized, 1/2” twisted or braided polyethylene rope. For single attachment set up
form a small noose at one end of your rope and throw it over the tree limb. For the dual
attachment option repeat this step. Run the other end of rope through the noose you
created and tighten firmly. Run the end of rope through the ,metal ring on the web swing.
Tie a minimum of TWO tight knots firmly. Repeat for dual attachment. Bottom of swing
should be no more than 24” and no less than 18” from the ground.
4.
Swing Set or other Horizontal Beam Assembly
- Attach the web swing to a swing set
by removing two sets of swings from the existing swing set and attach the upper metal O
rings to the chain support hook using carabiniers (not included) rated for at least 600 lbs.
Allow 1.5x the total length of the rope to the metal O ring of clearance on each side of the
swing from stationary objects or other swinging elements of any kind. Bottom of swing
should be no more than 24” and no less than 18” from the ground
