**IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION**
PLEASE READ BEFORE BEGINNING ASSEMBLY:
INSTALLATION & GROUND PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS
• Place the equipment on a level, well-drained ground, not less than 6.6 ft (2.0 m) from any struc-
ture 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 injury to the equipment user (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.
PLAYGROUND AND SURFACE MATERIALS INSTRUCTIONS
• Use containment, such as digging out around the perimeter and/or lining the perimeter with landscape edging.
• Do not install loose fi ll surfacing over hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt.
• Installation of rubber tiles or poured-in-place surfaces (other than loose fi ll materials) generally
requires a professional and are not "do-it-yourself" projects.
• Use playground surfacing materials (other than loose fi ll material) that comply to the safety standard
ASTM F1292 Standard Specifi cation for Impact Attenuation of Surfacing Materials within the Use Zone of
Playground Equipment.
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 use the equipment in a manner other than intended.
• To prevent entanglement and strangulation, dress children appropriately, using well-fi tting shoes and
avoiding ponchos, scarves, jackets with neck drawstrings, helmets with straps, and other loose-fi tting
clothing that is potentially hazardous while using equipment.
• 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
chains, as they may cause a strangulation hazard.
• Do not move the equipment while it is in use.
• 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.
