SWING SET SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: YOUR CHILD’S SAFETY DEPENDS ON YOU…
YOUR CHILD’S SAFETY DEPENDS ON YOU!!!

Observing the following statements and warnings reduces the likelihood of serious or fatal injury.

  1. Provide on-site adult supervision for children of all ages at all times.
  2. It is recommended that the playground equipment be placed in concrete. Be certain that all anchoring devices(including concrete)are placed below the level of the playing surface or below ground level to prevent tripping.
  3. Teach children to sit in the center of swing play items, with their full weight in the center of seats. NEVER allow children to stand on the seats. DO NOT allow children to lean to the side when riding on other rides, or structural members or collide with other playmates.
  4. Dress children appropriately while on and around this equipment. DO NOT allow children to wear ponchos, scarves, jewelry, loose shoes, jackets or clothing with loose strings, and/or clothing that might be potentially hazardous while using this equipment.
  5. DO NOT let children use equipment in any manner other than intended.
  6. DO anchor all gyms. DO NOT install over concrete, asphalt, gravel, or any hard surface which may cause injury should a fall occur.
  7. DO NOT let children use equipment until properly assembled and anchored. Place the swing set on LEVEL GROUND not less than 6 feet(1.8m) from any structures or obstacles such as fences, overhanging branches, laundry or electrical lines garages, sheds, or houses.
  8. Instruct children to avoid swinging empty PlayStations. Stations may strike other children or come back and strike you.
  9. Instruct children not to walk closely in front of, behind, or between moving plays. Instruct children to keep a safe distance away to avoid being struck by items in play.
  10. Instruct children not to twist chains or ropes or loop them over the support bar. This adds stress, reduces strength, and may fail.
  11. Instruct children not to get off play items while in motion. DO NOT allow children to jump from moving play items.
  12. DO NOT allow children to climb or play on equipment while wet. (Slips or falls may occur.)
  13. Instruct children not to go down the slide head first.
  14. Check the slide bed for extreme heat before letting children use the slide. (When exposed to direct sunlight.)
  15. DO NOT allow children to climb on or swing from structural members (legs, top bar, and chin bars). These are structural components ONLY and NOT play features.
  16. DO NOT allow children to swing play items more than 60 degrees.
  17. DO NOT leave bolts threads uncovered, TIGHTEN all hex nuts securely,
  18. DO NOT attach items to the playground equipment that is not specifically designed for use with the equipment, such as, but not limited to, jump ropes, clotheslines, pet leashes, cables, and chains as they may cause a strangulation hazard.
  19. Warning: Lawn swings are designed for children over 3 years of age.
  20. At the end of each play season, remove all plastic plays and take them indoors. DO NOT allow the use of plastic items when the temperature drops below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, (0 degrees Celsius).
  21. Dispose of all packaging properly after the swing set has been assembled.
  22. Please retain the instruction manual for future reference and review each season.

  • 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 place your swing set underneath electrical lines. If you must, ensure that there is a minimum overhead clearance of six (6) feet (1.83m).
  • The swing set should be assembled near the location it will be permanently anchored.

Location and Placement of Your Swing Set

Proper placement and maintenance of protective surfacing is essen tial. Be sure to:

  • Extend surfacing at least 6 feet (1.83m) from the equipment in all directions. The swing set must be placed a minimum of 6 feet (1.83m) from any structure or obstruction such as a fence, garage, house, overhanging branches, laundry lines, or electrical wires.

  • For safe playing swings, extend protective surfacing 12 feet (3.66m) in front of and behind the point of suspension of the swing
  • The following diagram shows how much obstacle-free surfacing should be used for the swing set. The shaded portion is where the protective surfacing must be placed.

Information on Playground Surfacing Materials

Select Protective Surfacing
One of the most important things you can do to reduce the likelihood of serious head injuries is to install shock-absorbing protective surfacing under and around your play equipment. The protective surfacing should be applied to a depth that is suitable for the equipment height by ASTM Specification F1292. There are different types of surfacing to choose from; whichever product you select, follow these guidelines:

Loose-Fill Materials:
Maintain a minimum depth of 9 inches of loose-fill materials such as wood mulch/chips, engineered wood fiber (EWF), or shredded/recycled rubber mulch for equipment up to 8 feet high; and 9 inches of sand or pea gravel for equipment up
to 5 feet high. NOTE: An initial fill level of 12 inches will compress to about a 9-inch depth of surfacing over time. The surfacing will also compact, displace, and settle, and should be periodically refilled to maintain at least a 9-inch depth.
Use a minimum of 6 inches of protective surfacing for play equipment less than 4 feet in height. If maintained properly, this should be adequate. (At depths less than 6 inches, the protective material is too easily displaced or compacted.)

NOTE: Do not install home playground equipment over concrete, asphalt, or any other hard surface. A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury to the equipment user. Grass and dirt are not considered protective surfacing because wear and environmental factors can reduce their shock- absorbing effectiveness. Carpeting and thin mats are generally not adequate protective surfacing. Ground-level equipment – such as a sandbox, activity wall, playhouse or other equipment that has no elevated play surface – does not need any protective surfacing.

Use containment, such as digging out around the perimeter and/or lining the perimeter with landscape edging. Don’t forget to account for water drainage.
Check and maintain the depth of the loose-fill surfacing material. To maintain the right amount of loose-fill materials, mark the correct level on play equipment support posts. That way you can easily see when to replenish and/or redistribute the surfacing. Do not install loose fill surfacing over hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt. Poured-In-Place Surfaces or Pre- Manufactured Rubber Tiles—You may be interested in using surfacing other than loose-fill materials – like rubber tiles or poured-in-place surfaces.
Installations of these surfaces generally require a professional and are not “do-it-yourself” projects.

Review surface specifications before purchasing this type of surfacing. Ask the installer/manufacturer for a report showing that the product has been tested to the following safety standard: ASTM F1292 Standard Specification for Impact Attenuation of Surfacing Materials within the Use Zone of Playground Equipment. This report should show the specific height for which the surface is intended to protect against serious head injury. This height should be equal to or greater than the fall height – the vertical distance between a designated play surface (elevated surface for standing, sitting, or climbing) and the protective surfacing below – of your play equipment.
Check the protective surfacing frequently for wear.
