2 Important Information: Please ensure page is read OUT OUR WOOD Solowave Design uses only Premium playground lumber, ensuring the safest product for your children s use. lthough great care has been taken in selecting the best quality lumber available, wood is a product of nature and susceptible to weathering (changes in the aesthetics of the wood). light sanding may be required to remove minor splinters. For your information, we have described some changes that may occur as a result of weathering: 1. Checking - checks are surface cracks in the wood along the grain. 4 x 4 material will experience more checking than 2, 1-1/4 or 1 material be cause the surface and interior moisture content will vary more widely than in thinner wood. 2. Warping - warping refers to any distortion (twisting, cupping) from the true plane that may take place during weathering. 3. Fading - wood exposed to sunlight, will over time, turn a grey colour. Note: The above changes will not affect the strength of the product What causes weathering? One of the main reasons for weathering is the effects of water (moisture); the moisture content of the wood at the surface is different than the interior of the wood. s the moisture moves in or out of the wood (result of climate changes), the different moisture content causes tension in the wood, which can result in checking and/or warping. Due to changes in the climate moisture moves in and out of the wood Moisture content will vary throughout any piece of wood How can I reduce the amount of weathering to my Play Center? t the factory we have added water repellent to the stain. This water repellent decreases the amount of water absorption during rain or snow thus decreasing the tension in the wood. Sunlight will break down the water repellent, so we recommend applying a water repellent on a yearly basis (see your local stain and paint supplier for a recommended product). lso if storing the product before installation, make sure you store out of direct sunlight in a cool dry place. Will weathering affect the strength of my Play Center? Most weathering is just the normal result of nature and will not affect safe play and enjoyment for your child. However if you are concerned that a part has experienced a severe weathering problem please call our consumer relations department for further assistance. Solowave Design. ll rights reserved.

3 Important Information: Please ensure page is read HELPFUL HINTS Tools Required Shovel Measuring Tape Drill (1/8 3/16 it) Safety Glasses Swing Hangers Swing hangers must be screwed into the wood the full length of the shaft, so that the triangular head is touching the wood (see swing hanger diagram). Failure to correctly install swing hangers may result in the hanger itself breaking, or the hanger becoming dislodged from the wood. Either circumstance can cause serious injury. ig ackyard cannot assume any responsibility for incorrect installation of swing hangers. (Liquid soap may be used as a lubricant for ease of installation). NOTE: Follow proper assembly procedure Swing eam Swing eam Hammer Ratchet 1/2, 7/16 & 9/16 Level Tee - Nuts & Lock washers #2 & #3 Phillips or Robertson Place tee-nut in hole and tap into place with hammer. Insert the hex bolt through, first the lock washer and then the flat washer, and feed through hole. Hand tighten to ensure bolt and tee-nut connection (this may not be possible due to coating on hardware, if not use a ratchet), and then proceed with ratchet. DO NOT over tighten. Hardware should not crush wood. 1/4 lock washer and flat washer, are used with 1/4 hex bolt or 5/16 with 5/16. Tee-Nut Hardware Swing Hanger Screw Hanger in until it is snug and flush with bottom of Swing eam When making the selection of 1/4 and 5/16 hardware, carefully read the instructions in each step of this manual to ensure the proper hardware is used. NOTE: 5/16 Hardware is larger in diameter than 1/4. The Swing Triangle Plate has a total of 5 holes, and they are all used depending on where you are installing it. When installing the plates, pay close attention to the holes required. When complete, the swing end should be angled out (away from fort) approx. 110 NOTE: In the event that is exposed beyond the tee-nut, please disassemble, add another flat washer to head of hex bolt and then reassemble unit correct.

4 WOOD PRTS IDENTIFICTION Parts Identification Helpful Hints: efore you start assembling your fort, be sure to sort, identify, and count all of the wood parts. Due to the fact that wood is a natural substance, slight warping or twisting may occur while it is in the carton. However, slight twisting or warping will not affect the structural integrity of your play centre. lso, due to weather changes, expansions and contraction of wood may cause slight checking and distortion. This is a natural characteristic of wood and will not affect the structural integrity of the play centre. Wood parts actual dimensions vary due to finishing profiles. ctual sizes are shown in this chart. 6 -Ground Stake (2" x 2" x 14") 1 -Wallboard (1" x 6" x 34-1/4") 2 -Seat/Table Support (2" x 6" x 16 3/4") Nominal Size 1" x 5" 2" x 4" 2" x 6" ctual Size 5/8" x 4-1/2" Nominal Size 5/4" x 4" 1" x 6" 5/8" x 5 3/8" 2" x 3" 1 3/8" x 3 3/8" 1 3/8" x 5 3/8" 2" x 2" 5/4" x 6" ctual Size 1" x 3 1/2" 1 3/8" x 2 1/2" 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" 1" x 5 1/2" 1 -Top Front (1" x 6" x 83") 1 -Top ack (1" x 6" x 83") 4 -Tenon Dowel (1-1/8" x 18 5/8") 1 -Floor Joist (5/4" x 4 x 83 1/2") 2 -Gusset (5/4" x 4" x 18 1/2") 1 -Floor Front (2" x 4" x 83") 2 -Ground Front/ack (1" x 6" x 83") 2 -Slide race (2" x 2" x 12 1/2") 2 -ack Post (2" x 4" x 94 1/4") 2 -Front Post (2" x 4" x 94 1/4") 1 -Floor ack (5/4" x 6" x 83") 2 -Sunburst Trim C (5/4" x 4" x 15-1/2") 1 -Side Joist (2" x 2" x 83") 1 -Right ccess Rail (2" x 4" x 69") 1 -Left ccess Rail (2" x 4" x 69") 19 -Cedar Wall (1" x 4" x 23 1/2") 2 -Rock Rail (5/4" x 4" x 71") P-1 1 -Ladder ottom (5/4" x 4" x 20")
