the likelihood of serious injury.

● Warning! DO NOT allow use by children under the age of

36 months as small part(s) and long cord(s) may be
choking and entanglement stangulation hazards.

● This unit is designed to be used by up to 5 children

between the age of 3 to 8, with a maximum weight of
45kg per seat. Combined weight not exceed of 180kg.

● Provide on-site adult supervision for children of all ages

at all times.

● It is recommended that the playground equipment be

located on level ground and anchored. Be certain that all
anchoring devices (including concrete) are placed below
the level of the playing surface and covered with
protective soft material to prevent tripping.

● Teach children to sit in the centre of the swing play items,

with their full weight in the centre of the seats. DO NOT
allow children to lean to the side when on play items or to
collide with other playmates. DO NOT allow children to
stand on the swing seat.

● 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 whilst using this equipment.

● DO NOT let children use this equipment in any manner

other than intended.

● Anchor all play equipment. DO NOT install over concrete,

asphalt, gravel or any other hard surface which may
cause injury should a fall occur. Swing set shall be
placed over protective soft material such as sand bed,
soft woodbark, grass lawn. The depth of sand and soft
woodbark shall be a minimum of 183cm. The anchor
shall be placed level with or under the ground in order to
reduce tipping hazards.

● DO NOT let children use this equipment until it has been
properly assembled and anchored. Place equipment on

level ground not less than 2M from any structures or
obstacles such as fences, overhanging branches, laundry
or electrical lines, garages, sheds or houses.

● Instruct children not to swing empty play items. They may
strike other children, or the play equipment may come

back and strike you.

● Instruct children not to walk closely in front of, behind or in
between moving play equipment. Instruct children to keep a

safe distance away to avoid being struck by the items in use.

● Instruct children not to twist chains or ropes, or loop them

than 60 degrees.

● After completion of assembly, ensure all the nuts and

bolts are tightened and in the correct position.

● Not suitable for hiring or commercial use.

● Never use the equipment in any manner other than

intended.

● Please retain these instructions for future reference.

● Warning! only for dometic use.

Maintenance Instructions

● Check all nuts and bolts twice monthly during the
season and tighten as required. We recommend you

check the swing beam and hardware every two weeks.
It is particularly important that this procedure be
followed at the beginning of each season.

● Oil all metallic moving parts monthly during the usage

period.

● Check all nuts and bolts twice monthly during the

season to be certain they are in place. Replace when
necessary. It is especially important to do this at the
beginning of each new season.

● Check swing seats, ropes, cables and chains monthly

during usage season for evidence of deterioration.
Replacement should be made of any swing seat that
has developed cracks in the plastic seat or has
exposed metal in the edges of the swing seat. If there
are already exposed metal inserts on the edge of the
seat, immediately remove the seats and chains to
prevent serious injury. Ropes, cables and chains
should be removed and replaced if excessive wear is
found. Contact OUR SERVICE CENTER for
replacement parts.

● Maintaining the Play set on a level location is very

important. As your children play, your Play set will
slowly dig its way into soil, and it is very important that
is settled evenly. Make sure the play set is level and
true once each year or at the beginning of each play
season.

● Toys shall be accompanied by maintenance

instructions drawing attention to the need of carrying
out checks and maintenance of the main parts at
regular intervals , if these checks are not carried out
the toy could overturn and otherwise become a hazard.
Whenever practical, the instructions shall also be
affixed to the toy.

Safety Information

Important –Please read these instructions fully before assembly or use.

● Hardware: inspect for tightness.

● Swing hangers: check to insure correct installation.

Make sure that the bend of the swing hanger is
positioned tightly against the stop washer and swing
beam. The axis of the swing hanger bushing must be

perpendicular to the swing motion. If squeaking occurs

the nylon bushings can be sprayed with WD-40 or
other house hold lubricant.

● The instructions and owner’s manual for your new play

set should be read in its entirety before assembly, to
minimize problems and safety issues. We recommend
reading the owner manual thoroughly after you have
identified all of the parts for your play set.

● Check all coverings for bolts and sharp edges and
replace when required.

● DO NOT attach items to the playground equipment that

are not specifically designed for use with this

equipment, such as, but not limited to, jump ropes,

clotheslines, pet leashes, cables and chains as they
may cause strangulation hazards.

● At the end of each play season, remove all plastic parts

and take indoors. DO NOT allow the use of plastic
items when the temperature drops below 0 degree.

● Dispose of all packaging properly after the unit has

been assembled.

● This equipment is for family domestic use and is

intended for outdoor use only.

● Check all nuts and bolts for tightness and tighten when
required.

● Check swing seats, chains, and other means of

attachments for evidence of deterioration, replace

when required in accordance with the manufacturer’s

instructions.

● Not suitable for children under 3 years because of

small part(s)-choking hazard.

● This unit must be assembled by adults, ensure bolts

and small components are kept out of reach of young
children.

● Check all fixings regularly, tighten if necessary, and

that the suspension system is secure.

● Check metal sections or components for signs of

corrosion.

● Discontinue use if weakening or breakage found.

● Young children in play are unaware of potential

dangers and hazards, therefore responsible adults
supervision is essential.

● Failure to comply with these precautions may result in

injury.

● Disassemble and store indoors during the winter.

Positioning Your Play Set

● Require at least 2 adults for assembly. Try to place in a

flat area of your yard to minimize ground preparation.

Place the equipment not less than 2M from any

structure or obstruction such as a fence, garage,
house, overhanging branches，laundry lines, or
electrical wires.

● It is a good idea to place your play set in an area that is

convenient for adults to watch children at play.

● The area that you choose should be policed for glass,

rocks or anything jagged or sharp that could endanger
your children’s safety. The surface underneath your
play system can cause or prevent injuries.

● Shredded bark mulch, wood chips, fine sand of fine

gravel are considered to be acceptable
shock-absorbing surfaces when installed and
maintained at a sufficient depth under and around

playground equipment. However each material is only

effective when properly maintained. Material should be
checked periodically and replenished to maintain
correct depth as determined necessary for your

equipment. Otherwise serious injuries may occur from

a fall.

● Do not build your play set on top of surfacing material.

● Please install this equipment facing away from the sun

to avoid causing dizziness whilst playing. The surface
underneath your play system can cause or prevent
injuries. We have additional suggestions in the
suggested playground surfacing section.
