- Always keep safety in mind as your equipment is being built.
- Children MUST NOT use this swing set until unit has been completely assembled and inspected by an adult to ensure set has been properly installed and anchored.
- Equipment is recommended for use by children 3 to 10 years of age.
- This swing set is designed for specific number of occupants whose combined weight should not exceed the designated weight on the elevated floor or the swing area.
- On-site, continuous adult supervision is REQUIRED. MOST SERIOUS INJURIES AND DEATHS ON PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT HAVE OCCURRED WHILE CHILDREN WERE UNSUPERVISED!
- DO NOT allow children to walk close to, in front of, behind, or between moving swings or other moving playground equipment. Always keep a safe distance to avoid being struck by items in motion.
- DO NOT let children stand on swings.
- Children should NOT twist the chains and ropes and should not loop them over the top support bar, this could reduce the strength of the chain or rope.
- DO NOT let children push empty seats. The seat could hit them and cause serious injury.
- Instruct and teach children to sit in the center of the swings with their full weight on the seats.
- DO NOT allow children to use the equipment in a manner other than intended.
- Instruct children NOT to get off equipment while it is in motion.
- DO NOT allow children to climb or play on equipment when it is wet. Slip or falls may occur.
- DO NOT allow children to run up a slide, as this increases their chances of falling.
- DRESS CHILDREN APPROPRIATELY. (Examples would include wearing well-fitting shoes and the avoidance of ponchos, scarfs, and other loose-fitting clothing that is potentially hazardous while using equipment).
- DO NOT allow children to climb when the equipment is wet.
- Children should NEVER jump from a fort deck. They should always use the ladder, ramp or slide.
- Children should NEVER be allowed to crawl or walk across the top of monkey bars.
- DO NOT allow children to crawl on top of a fort roof.
- Verify that any suspended climbing ropes, chain, or cable are secured at both ends and that they cannot be looped back on themselves as to create an entanglement hazard.
- DO NOT let children attach items to the playground equipment that are not specifically designed for use with the equipment. Items such as, but not limited to, jump ropes, clothesline, pet leashes, cables and chain can cause a strangulation hazard.
- Children should NEVER wrap their legs around swing chain.
- DO NOT allow children to slide down the swing chain.
- Instruct children to remove their bike or other sports helmet before playing on playground equipment.
- NEVER add extra length to chain or rope. The chains or ropes provided are the maximum length designed for the swinging element(s).
Positioning Your Swing Set
- The swing set is designed to be installed on a level surface by an adult with an adult helper. Place in a flat area of your yard to minimize ground preparation.
- Choose a level location for the equipment. This can reduce the likelihood of the playset tipping over and loose-fill surfacing material washing away during heavy rains.
- Place the equipment not less than 6 ft (1.8 m) from any structure or obstruction such as a fence, garage, house, overhanging branches, laundry lines, or electrical wires.
- Provide enough room so that the children can use the equipment safely. For example, for structures with multiple play activities, a slide should not exit in front of a swing.
- It is a good idea to place the equipment in an area that is convenient for adults to watch children at play.
- 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. Additional suggestions in the Suggested Playground Surfacing Section.
- Do not build the equipment on top of surfacing material.
- Locate bare metal platforms and slides out of direct sunlight to reduce the likelihood of serious burns.
- 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.
The following chart explains the fall height in feet from which a life threatening head injury would not be expected
Suggested Playground Surfacing
- 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 injury to the equipment user.
- Do not install loose fill surfacing over hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt. Shredded bark mulch, wood chips, fine sand and fine gravel, are added as shock-absorbing materials after assembly. If used properly these materials can absorb some of the impact of a child’s fall.
- All surface material should extend a minimum of 6ft (1.8m) in all directions around the play area.
- Do not apply playground surfacing until after the unit is completely constructed. Playset should not be built on top of surfacing.
- Use containment, such as digging out around the perimeter and/or lining the perimeter with landscape edging.
- Installations of rubber tiles or poured-in-place surfaces (other than loose-fill materials) generally require a professional and are not “do-it-yourself” projects.
- The table below lists the maximum height from which a child would not be expected to sustain a life-threatening injury to the head, when falling onto the loose fill surface materials, provided that these materials are installed and maintained at 6, 9 and 12 inches deep. However, consumers should recognize that no matter what type of surface material is used, it cannot prevent all injuries due to falls.
Material| Uncompressed Depth| Compressed Depth
---|---|---
| 6″ (152mm)| 9″ (228mm)| 12″ (304mm)| to 9″ (228mm)
Wood Chips| 7′ (2.13m)| 10-12′ (3.0-3.6m)| 11′ (3.35m)| 10′ (3.05m)
Double-Shredded Bark Mulch| 6′ (1.83m)| 10-12′ (3.0-3.6m)| 11′ (3.35m)| 7′ (2.13m)
Fine Sand| 5′ (1.52m)| 5′ (1.52m)| 9′ (2.74m)| 5′ (1.52m) - Please note this information is intended to assist in comparing the relative shock-absorbing properties of various materials. No particular material is recommended over another. Every material is only effective when properly maintained. Material should be maintained and replenished periodically after inspection by user, to maintain the correct depth necessary for your equipment.
- Note : The maximum fall height for this product is 6 feet. The minimum ground clearance between the bottom of the suspended plays and the playing or ground service must be 8 inches.
