What to Inspect:
Hardware:
Inspect all nuts and bolts and tighten if required. Hardware should be firmly against, but not crushing
the wood. Over-tightening hardware crushes wood fibers and can split wooden components resulting
in the bolt thread extending beyond the wood. This poses a severe safety hazard. If bolt threads
protrude beyond the wood surface, replace the bolt with a shorter one that will not protrude. If
splintering has occurred from over-tightening, larger washers can be purchased at your local hardware
store and installed under the bolt head. Be sure to reuse or replace your lock washers.
Major Wooden Parts:
Inspect for structural defects and splintering. If necessary, lightly sand and refinish with an exterior
water repellent stain. Seasonal checking or cracking of the grain on wooden parts is quite natural water
and heat are the most frequent causes of expansion and contraction of wood fibers. Our wood set has
been treated with stain to resist weathering. But it needs to be maintained periodically by applying new
stain or paint.
Dowels (Rungs)
Inspect for structural defects and splintering. If necessary, lightly sand and refinish with a clear water
repellent, exterior sealant or boiled linseed oil. Do NOT paint, varnish or finish rungs with any substance
that may reduce your child’s ability to f irmly grasp or step on the rungs.
Swing hangers
Inspect for correct installation. Assure the bend of the swing hanger is positioned tightly against the
stop washer and the ladder or swing beam. The axis of the swing hanger bushing must be perpendicular
to the swing motion. Spray the nylon bushings with a household lubricant such as WD-40, if you hear
squeaking.
Plastic Swing Seats
Check for evidence of deterioration. Replace any swing seat that has developed cracks in the seat or
has exposed metal in the edges of the swing seat. If there are already exposed metal inserts on the
edge of the seat, remove the seats and chains to prevent serious injury. Remove plastic swing seats and
take indoors or do NOT use when the temperature drops below 32 degrees F.
Ropes, Cables and Chains
Check for evidence of deterioration. Ropes, cables and chains should be removed and replaced if
excessive wear is found. Contact our service center for replacement parts.
Metallic Components
Check for rusted areas on components such as monkey bars, hand supports, brackets, etc. Sand and
repaint using a non lead-based paint that meets the requirements of Title 16 CRF part 1303.
Play Area
Inspect to assure that the swing set has settled properly and the location of the set is still level.
