**IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION**
PLEASE READ BEFORE BEGINNING ASSEMBLY:
INSTALLATION AND GROUND PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS
• Place the equipment on level, well-drained ground, not less than 6.6 ft (2.0 m) from any structure or obstruction
such as a fence, garage, house, overhanging branches, laundry lines, or electrical wires.
• Provide enough room so that children can use the equipment safely. For example, for structures with multiple
play activities, a slide should not exit in front of a swing.
• Separate active and quiet activities from each other. For example, locate sandboxes away from swings or use a
guardrail or barrier to separate the sandbox from the movement of the swings.
• Do not install home playground equipment over concrete, asphalt, packed earth, grass, carpet, or any other hard
surface. A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious head injury or death. (see page 7).
• To prevent serious injury, warn children that they must not use the equipment until properly installed.
• Create a site free of obstacles that could cause injuries – such as low overhanging tree branches, overhead wires,
tree stumps and/or roots, large rocks, bricks, and concrete.
• Choose a level location for the equipment. This can reduce the likelihood of the playset tipping over and loose-fi ll
surfacing materials washing away during heavy rains.
• For any questions call our Customer Service Department at 1-800-225-3865 for more information.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Observing the following instructions and warnings reduces the likelihood of serious or fatal injury:
• The maximum number of occupants that may safely use the entire playset is six with a maximum weight of 600
pounds (272 kg).
• On-site adult supervision should be provided for children of all ages.
• Instruct children not to walk close to, in front of, behind, or between moving items.
• Do not move the equipment while it is in use.
• Instruct children not to twist swing chains or ropes or loop them over the top support bar since this may reduce
the strength of the chain or rope.
• Instruct children to avoid swinging empty seats.
• Teach children to sit in the center of the swings with their full weight on the seats.
• Instruct children not to use the equipment in a manner other than intended.
• Instruct children not to get off the equipment while it is in motion.
• To prevent entanglement and strangulation, dress children appropriately using well-fi tting shoes and avoiding
ponchos, scarves, jackets with neck drawstrings, cord-connected items, helmets with straps, and other
loose-fi tting clothing that is potentially hazardous while using equipment. These items can cause death by
strangulation.
• Instruct children not to play when the equipment is wet.
• Instruct children not to attach items to the playground equipment that are not specifi cally designed for use with
the equipment, such as, but not limited to, jump ropes, clothesline, pet leashes, cables and chain as they may
cause a strangulation hazard.
• Dress children with well-fi tting and full foot enclosing footwear. Examples of inappropriate foot ware are clogs, fl ip
fl ops, and sandals.
• Instruct children to remove their bike or other sports helmet before playing on the playground equipment. These
items can cause death by strangulation.
• Check that suspended climbing ropes, chain, or cable are secured at both ends.
• Place the equipment no less than 6.6 ft. (2.0 m) from any structure or obstruction such as a fence, garage, house,
overhanging branches, laundry lines, or electrical wires.
• Impact surfacing needs to cover the entire recommended play area.
• Never add extra length to chain or rope. The chains or ropes provided are the maximum length designed for the
swinging element(s). EN71 Standard requires the swings' minimum clearance to be 350 mm (≈13.78 in.) from
the ground.
