2 Warnings and Safe Play Instructions CONTINUOUS ADULT SUPERVISION REQUIRED. Most serious injuries and deaths on playground equipment have occurred while children were unsupervised! Our products are designed to meet mandatory and voluntary safety standards. Complying with all warnings and recommendations in these instructions will reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury to children using this play system. Go over the warnings and safe play instructions regularly with your children and make certain that they understand and follow them. Remember on-site adult supervision is required for children of all ages. SERIOUS HEAD INJURY HAZARD Installation over concrete, asphalt, dirt, grass, carpet and other hard surface creates a risk of serious injury or death from falls to the ground. Install and maintain shock absorbing material under and around play-set as recommended on page 3 of these instructions. COLLISION HAZARD Place play-set on level ground at least 6 feet from any obstruction such as a garage or house, fences, poles, trees, sidewalks, walls, landscape timbers, rocks, pavement, planters, garden borders, overhanging branches, laundry lines, and electrical wires.

Failure to prohibit these items, even helmets with chin straps, increases the risk of serious injury and death to children from entanglement and strangulation. TIP OVER HAZARD Choose a level location for the equipment. This can reduce the likelihood of the play set tipping over and loose-fill surfacing materials washing away during heavy rains. DO NOT allow children to play on the play-set until the assembly is complete and the unit is properly anchored. WARNING Safe Play Instructions Observe capacity limitations of your play-set. See front cover. Dress children with well fitting and full foot enclosing footwear. Teach children to sit with their full weight in the center of the swing seat to prevent erratic swing motion or falling off. Check for splintered, broken or cracked wood; missing, loose, or sharp edged hardware. Replace, tighten and or sand smooth as required prior to playing. Verify that suspended climbing ropes, rope ladders, chain or cable are secured at both ends and cannot be looped back on itself as to create an entanglement hazard. On sunny and or hot days, check the slide and other plastic rides to assure that they are not very hot as to cause burns. Cool hot slide and rides with water and wipe dry prior to using. Do not allow children to wear open toe or heel footwear like sandals, flip flops or clogs. Do not allow children to walk, in front, between, behind or close to moving rides. Do not let children twist swing chains or ropes or loop them over the top support bar. This may reduce the strength of the chain or rope and cause premature failure. Do not let children get off rides while they are in motion. Do not permit climbing on equipment when it is wet. Do not permit rough play or use of equipment in a manner for which it was not intended. Standing on or jumping from the roof, elevated platforms, swings, climbers, ladders or slide can be dangerous. Do not allow children to swing empty rides or seats.

Here is a sample. 2X 1234 Post 2 x 4 x 83 Symbols Throughout these instructions symbols are provided as important reminders for proper and safe assembly. This identifies information that requires special attention. Improper assembly could lead to an unsafe or dangerous condition. Use Help Measure Distance Use Help Where this is shown, 2 or 3 people are required to safely complete the step. To avoid injury or damage to the assembly make sure to get help! Check that assembly is square before tightening bolts. Use a measuring tape to assure proper location. Square Assembly Check that set or assembly is properly level before proceeding. Pre-drill 1/8 Bit Pre-drill a pilot hole before fastening screw or lag to prevent splitting of wood. This indicates time to tighten bolts, but not too tight! Do not crush the wood. This may create splinters and cause structural damage. Use Level Tighten Bolts CAUTION Protrusion Hazard Once the assembly is tightened, watch for exposed threads. If a thread protrudes from the T-Nut, remove the bolt and add washers to eliminate this condition. Extra washers have been provided for this purpose. Proper Hardware Assembly Lag screws require drilling pilot holes to avoid splitting wood. Only a flat washer is required. For ease of installation liquid soap can be used on all lag-type screws. For bolts, tap T-Nut into hole with hammer. Insert the hex bolt through lock washer first then flat washer then hole. Because the assemblies need to be squared do not completely tighten until instructed. Pay close attention to diameter of the bolts. 5/16 is slightly larger than 1/4.
