Positioning Your Swing Set
area of your garden to minimise ground preparation.
• Place the equipment not less than 2 metres from any
structure or obstruction such as a fence, garage, house,
overhanging branches, laundry/electrical lines.
• It is a good idea to place your swing set in an area that is
convenient for adults to watch children at play.
• The area that you choose should be policed for glass, rocks
or anything jagged or sharp that could endanger your
children’s safety. The surface underneath your play system
can cause or prevent injuries. We have additional
suggestions in the suggested playground surfacing section.
• Do not build your swing set on top of surfacing material.
• Please install this equipment facing away from the sun to
avoid causing dizziness whilst playing.
Tightening Nuts & Bolts
• At the start of assembling, DO NOT tighten bolt/nut all the
way, so to allow some possible adjustment for ease of
assembly.
• After all major components are assembled, go back over all
bolts and nuts properly tighten all of them before using this
product.
• Check all nuts and bolts twice monthly during the season
and tighten as required. We recommend you check the
swing beam and hardware every two weeks. It is particularly
important that this procedure be followed at the beginning
of each season
• Oil all metallic moving parts monthly during the usage period.
• Check all nuts and bolts twice monthly during the season
to be certain they are in place. Replace when necessary. It is
especially important to do this at the beginning of each new
season.
• Check swing seats, ropes, cables and chains monthly
during usage season for evidence of deterioration.
Replacement should be made of any swing seat that has
developed cracks in the plastic 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, immediately remove
the seats and chains to prevent serious injury. Ropes, cables
and chains should be removed and replaced if excessive
wear is found. Contact our Customer Services for
replacement parts.
• Maintaining the swing set on a level location is very
important. As your children swing, your Play set will slowly
dig its way into soil, and it is very important that is settles
evenly. Make sure the swing set is level each year or at the
beginning of each play season.
• Hardware: inspect for tightness.
• Swing hangers: check to insure correct installation. Make
sure that the bend of the swing hanger is positioned tightly
against the stop washer and swing beam. The axis of the
swing hanger bushing must be perpendicular to the swing
motion. If squeaking occurs the nylon bushings can be
sprayed with other house hold lubricant.
• The instructions and owner’s manual for your new swing
set should be read in its entirety before assembly, to
minimise problems and safety issues. We recommend
reading the owner manual thoroughly after you have
HINTS AND TIPS AS LISTED BELOW.
• Check all coverings for bolts and sharp edges and replace
when required.
• Do not adjust the length of the swing rope.
• Never use pliers to tighten up screws –these can cause
damage to both the paintwork and the special anti-corrosion
plating.
• To help maintain the products appearance, occasionally
clean the seats and metal framework with a damp cloth
lightly – but DO NOT use abrasive chemical cleaners.
