SINGLE AXIS SWINGS:
The use/fall zone should extend to the front & rear, a minimum distance
of twice the height of the Top Rail Above the resilient surfacing
material. The use/fall zone to the sides should follow the general
recommendation of six feet minimum. This six-foot zone may overlap
that of an adjacent swing structure.
ROTATING SWINGS:
The use/fall zone should extend in all directions the length of the
swing plus six feet. The six-foot minimum fall zone from the
supporting structure also applies, and may overlap the six-foot zone of
an adjacent swing structure.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS:
Check MONTHLY for loose bolts, damaged or broken parts. Tighten and/or
replace immediately. On swings and any equipment that uses S-hooks
and/or Swing Hangers, check the bearing surfaces for wear. Replace any
parts that show a reduction of 25% from the original size.
ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION:
NOTE:
All threaded ends of bolts protruding beyond nuts must be cut off
and/or peened to eliminate sharp edges. No more than two threads
should extend beyond face of nut. All washers, “T” nuts, and
other fastener hardware used on round pipe or tubing must be
hammered down to conform to the curved underlying surface to
eliminate catch points. DO NOT tighten nuts more than hand=tight
until entire assembly is completed.
STEP #1:
Assemble swing frame on side, on ground. If more than one
section, assemble section by section. Layout parts so that when
frame is erected, Legs will be in approximately correct position.
NOTE: Weld Nuts on top rail do not line up with weld nut on
fitting. Weld nuts above shown on top for illustration purposes
only. Should be on side below horizontal so set screws point
downwards.
