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.

WARNING

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. (See OBSTACLE FREE SAFETY ZONE on cover)

CHOKING HAZARD/SHARP EDGES & POINTS

Adult assembly required. This product contains small parts and parts with sharp edges and points. Keep parts away from children until fully assembled.

WARNING LABEL

Owners shall be responsible for maintaining the legibility of the warning labels.

STRANGULATION HAZARD

• NEVER allow children to play with ropes, clotheslines,

pet leashes, cables, chains or cord-like items when using this play-set or to attach these items to play-set.

• NEVER allow children to wear loose tting clothing,

ponchos, hoods, scarves, capes, necklaces, items with draw-strings, cords or ties when using this play-set.

• NEVER allow children to wear bike or sport helmets

when using this play-set.

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.

Do not allow children to go down slide head ﬁrst or

run up slide.

Protective Surfacing - Reducing Risk of Serious Head Injury From Falls.

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 in accordance with ASTM 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 raked and 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 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.

• Periodically rake, check and maintain the depth of the loose-ﬁll surfacing material. Marking the correct depth on the play equipment support posts will help you to see when the material has settled and needs to be raked and or replenished. Be sure to rake and evenly redistribute the surfacing in heavily used areas.

• 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 - 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.

Placement

Proper placement and maintenance of protective surfacing is essential. Refer to diagram on front cover. Be sure to;

• Extend surfacing at least 6 feet from the equipment in all directions.

• For to-fro swings, extend protective surfacing in front of and behind the swing to a distance equal to twice the height of the top

bar from which the swing is suspended.

• For tire swings, extend surfacing in a circle whose radius is equal to the height of the suspending chain or rope, plus 6 feet in all directions.

Instructions for Proper Maintenance

Your Cedar Summit Play System is designed and constructed of quality materials with your child’s safety in mind. As with all outdoor products used by children, it will weather and wear. To maximize the enjoyment, safety and life of your Play Set, it is important that you, the owner, properly maintain it.

Check the following at the beginning of the play season:

HARDWARE:

Check metal parts for rust. If found, sand and repaint using a non-lead paint complying with 16 CFR 1303. Inspect and tighten all hardware. On wood assemblies DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN as to cause crushing and splintering of wood. Check for sharp edges or protruding screw threads, add washers if required.

If Bolt protrudes beyond T-Nut

Use an extra Flat Washer

SHOCK ABSORBING SURFACING:

Check for foreign objects. Rake and check depth of loose

ﬁll protective surfacing materials to prevent compaction and maintain appropriate depth. Replace as necessary. (See Protective Surfacing, page 3)

GROUND STAKES (ANCHORS):

Check for looseness, damage or deterioration. Should

ﬁrmly anchor unit to ground during use. Re-secure and or replace, if necessary.

SWING HANGERS:

Check that bolts are secure and tight. Quick clips should

be completely closed and threaded clips screwed tight.

If squeaking occurs lubricate bushings with oil or WD-40®.

SWINGS, ROPES AND RIDES:

Reinstall if removed during cold season. Check all

moving parts including swing seats, ropes, chains and attachments for wear, rust and other deterioration. Replace as needed.

Check that ropes are tight, secure at both ends and

cannot loop back as to create an entrapment.

WOOD PARTS:

Check all wood members for deterioration, structural

damage and splintering. Sand down splinters and replace deteriorated wood members. As with all wood, some checking and small cracks in grain is normal.

Unprotected, they will appear weathered over time.

Periodic application of an exterior water repellent or stain (water-based) will help improve appearance and life.

Check twice a month during play season:

HARDWARE:

Inspect for tightness. Must be ﬁrmly against, but not

crushing the wood. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. This will cause splintering of wood.

Check for sharp edges or protruding screw threads.

Add washers if required.

SHOCK ABSORBING SURFACING:

Rake and check depth of loose ﬁll protective surfacing

materials to prevent compaction and maintain appropriate depth. Replace as necessary. (See Protective Surfacing, page 3)

Check once a month during play season:

SWING HANGERS:

Check that they are secure and orientated correctly. Hook

should rotate freely and perpendicular to support beam.

If squeaking occurs lubricate bushings with oil or WD-40®.

SWINGS AND RIDES:

Check swing seats, all ropes, chains and attachments for

fraying, wear, excessive corrosion or damage. Replace if structurally damaged or deteriorated.

Check at the end of the play season:

SWINGS AND RIDES:

To prolong their life, remove swings and store inside

when outside temperature is below 32°F/0°C. Below freezing, plastic parts may become more brittle.

If you dispose of your play set: Please disassemble and dispose of your unit so that it does not create any unreasonable hazards at the time it is discarded. Be sure to follow your local waste ordinances.

SHOCK ABSORBING SURFACING:

Rake and check depth of loose ﬁll protective surfacing

materials to prevent compaction and maintain appropriate depth. Replace as necessary.

About Our Wood

Cedar Summit Premium Play Systems uses 100% FSC wood. Although we take great care in selecting the best quality lumber available, wood is still a product of nature and susceptible to weathering which can change the appearance of your set.

What causes weathering? Does it affect the strength of my Play System?

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. As the climate changes, moisture moves in or out of the wood, causing tension which can result in checking and or warping. You can expect the following due to weathering. These changes will not affect the strength of the product:

1. Checking is surface cracks in the wood along the grain. A post (4” x 4”) will experience more checking than a board (1” x 4”)

because the surface and interior moisture content will vary more widely than in thinner wood.

2. Warping results from any distortion (twisting, cupping) from the original plane of the board and often happens from rapid

wetting and drying of the wood.

3. Fading happens as a natural change in the wood color as it is exposed to sun-light and will turn a grey over time.

How can I reduce the amount of weathering to my Play System?

At the factory we have coated the wood with a water repellent or stain. This coating decreases the amount of water absorption during rain or snow thus decreasing the tension in the wood. Sunlight will break down the coating, so we recommend applying a water repellent or stain on a yearly basis (see your local stain and paint supplier for a recommended product).

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.

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”.
