Thank you for choosing gorilla playsets® for your new backyard playground!

We’ve included everything you need, except tools, to build your very own professional looking playset. When complete, your new playset should far exceed the quality of playset kits from other build-your-own companies. Our engineers and design team have over 30 years of playground experience. What we’ve developed is a playset that doesn’t compromise quality for simplicity. Yet you’ll appreciate how quick and easy construction really is! Our playset kits are designed for children ages 3 to 11. gorilla playsets® believes every child should have a playset and with our kits they can! You can rest assured your new playset is safe, durable and designed to hold up to the elements. As parents ourselves, we know how important the security and wellbeing of our children is, and this shows in all of our products.

Each playset features our step-by-step 3D illustrated manual, patented powder coated swing beam bracket, heavy-duty swing belts with chains, slide(s), accessories, plus all the required hardware and pre-milled lumber.

Quality Lumber

At Gorilla Playsets, we use only the finest, hand selected lumber available. Whether you choose a playset made from our Premium Preserved Pine, Beautiful California Redwood, Western Red Cedar, or Asian Cedar you can be assured that our lumber is strong, durable, and conforms to the national standards for use in children’s play equipment. It’s this quality that allows us to offer a 10 year warranty on the lumber used in our play sets.

Premium Preserved Pine

Our Premium Preserved Pine is double kiln dried. We utilize this process to minimize shrinkage, warping, and cupping. Because our pine has been “pre-shrunk”, the hardware used to assemble your playset will hold tight. Our preserved pine is clean, odorless, non-staining, and non-irritating to humans, animals, or plants. Gorilla’s Preserved Pine uses one of the only exterior wood preservation systems that is EPA approved. Our pine lumber is preserved with a preservative system containing copper and azole compounds to protect against termite attack and fungal decay. Our Premium Preserved Pine can withstand harsh weather conditions and is effective for decades; making Gorilla Playsets the best choice in pine lumber built swing sets.

California Redwood and Western Red Cedar*

Our Beautiful California Redwood and Western Red Cedar playsets are a natural alternative to preserved lumber. California Redwood naturally resists decay caused by the environment or by insect infestation while Western Red Cedar is a preferred wood for purposes where an attractive appearance and resistance to weather is important. All California Redwood and Western Red Cedar Gorilla Playsets receive a factory stain and sealant process. To maintain this aesthetic appeal, it is recommended that you seal your redwood and cedar play set once per year.

Asian Cedar (Cunninghamia Lanceolata)

Our durable Asian Cedar playsets are low-maintenance, and maintain their beauty for many years. Asian Cedar has been harvested in Southeast Asia for more than 800 years, and is prized because it naturally repels pests, fungus, and rot. Asian Cedar is used indoors and out where durability is critical. Asian Cedar can be found throughout the U.S. in outdoor lawn furniture, and on children’s play structures.

*Gorilla Playsets reserves the right to substitute Western Red Cedar with other species of

similar characteristics due to market availability.

IMPORTANT SAFETY GUIDELINES

This product is intended for residential use only and not intended for use in any public setting. A safety surface such as mulch or recycled tire should be used under the play set to prevent injury from falls. Also a 6 foot safety zone should be used around the entire playset. As with any home project, good judgment and respect for power tools will greatly reduce the risk of injury. gorilla playsets® recommends you follow all tool manufacturers’ safety guidelines. Always wear eye protection and safety gloves to prevent injury. In several phases of construction two people may be required for lifting and securing of lumber. While playset is being constructed, please keep children off the equipment until the project is complete. Bolts and screw heads should be checked regularly for tightness. The ground ladder, rope ladder, slide, swings and other areas where children spend a majority of their playtime should be checked more frequently. gorilla playsets® shall not be liable for incidental, indirect or consequential damages or injuries that result from the building and/or playing on our playsets. Adult supervision is recommended anytime a playset is being used.

Safety and Maintenance Tips for Your New Play Set:

NOTE: Your children’s safety is our #1 concern. Observing the following statements and warnings reduces the likelihood of serious or fatal injury. Please review these safety rules regularly with your children.

• This playset is designed for the use of 4 occupants who have a combined weight not exceeding 800 pounds on the elevated floor, 3 occupants who have a combined weight of

525 pounds on the swing area, for a total Unit capacity of 5 occupants who have a combined weight of 1325. (this weight is not including the picnic table area)

• On-site adult supervision is required.

• Teach children not to walk close to, in front of, behind, or between moving swings or other

moving playground equipment.

• Teach children to sit in and never stand on swings

• Teach children not to twist the chains and ropes and not to loop them over the swing beam,

since this may reduce the strength of the chain or rope.

• Teach children not to jump from swings or other playground equipment in motion.

• Teach children to not push empty seats. The seat may hit them and cause serious injury.

• Teach children to sit in the center of the swings with their full weight on the seats.

• Teach children not to use the equipment in a manner other than intended.

• Teach children to always go down slides feet first. Never slide headfirst.

• Teach children to look before they slide to make sure no one is at the bottom.

• Teach children to never run up a slide, as this increases their chances of falling.

• The parents should have the children dress appropriately with well-fitting shoes. Loose

clothing such as scarves and ponchos should not be worn. Always take off, tie up or tuck in cords and drawstrings on children’s clothing. These things can get caught on playground equipment and strangle a child.

• Teach children not to climb when the equipment is wet.

• Teach children to never jump from a fort deck. They should always use the ladder, ramp or

slide.

• Teach children to never crawl or walk across the top of monkey bars.

• Teach children to never crawl on top of a fort roof.

• Verify that any suspended climbing ropes, chains, or cables are secured at both ends and

that they cannot be looped around an adult hand.

• Teach children not to attach items to the playground equipment that are not specifically designed for use with the equipment, such as, but not limited to, jump ropes, clothesline, pet leashes, cables and chain as they may cause a strangulation hazard.

• Teach children to never use Monkey Bar when swings or glider are installed.

• Teach children to never wrap their legs around swing chain.

• Teach children to never slide down the swing chain.

WARNING: Children must NOT use this playset until unit has been completely assembled and inspected by an adult to insure set has been properly installed and anchored.

Safety and Maintenance Tips for Your New Play Set: (continued)

Playgrounds should be inspected on a regular basis. If any of the following conditions are noted, they should be removed, corrected, or repaired immediately to prevent injuries.

• Hardware that is loose, worn or that has protrusions or projections

• Exposed equipment footings

• Scattered debris, litter, rocks, or tree roots

• Splinters, large cracks, and decayed wood components.

• Deterioration and corrosion on structural components, which connect to the ground

• Missing or damaged equipment components, such as handholds, guardrails, swing

seats.

• Check all nuts and bolts frequently during the usage season and tighten as required. (But not so tight that you crack the wood) We recommend you check the swing beam and hardware often due to wood expansion and contraction. It is particularly important that this procedure be followed at the beginning of each season.

• Remove plastic swing seats and take indoors or do not use when the temperature drops below 32°F.

• Oil all metallic moving parts monthly during the usage period.

• Check all coverings for bolts and sharp edges twice monthly during usage 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 seats 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 Gorilla Playsets for warranted replacement parts.

• For rusted areas on metallic members such as monkey bars, hand supports brackets, etc.; sand and repaint, using a non lead-based paint meeting the requirements of Title 16 CRF Part 1303.

• Inspect wood parts monthly. The grain of the wood sometimes will lift in the dry season causing splinters to appear. Light sanding may be necessary to maintain a safe playing environment. If you are treating your playset with stain regularly, it will help prevent severe checking/splitting and other weather damage.

• Once or twice a year, depending on your climate conditions, you must apply some type of protection (sealant) to the wood of your unit. Prior to the application of sealant, lightly sand any “rough” spots on your set. Please note this is a requirement of your warranty.

• Creating and maintaining the playset on a level location is very important. As your children play, your playset will slowly dig its way into the soil, and it is very important that it settles evenly. Make sure the play set is level and true once each year or at the beginning of each play season.

• Rake the surface periodically to prevent compaction and maintain appropriate depths.

Disposal Instructions:

disassembled and disposed of in such away that no unreasonable hazards will exist at the time

When the playset use is no longer desired, it should be

the unit is discarded.

Play Set Surfacing Recommendations:

Below are some of the recommendations that the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC)

offers from its

1. Protective Surfacing - Since almost 60% of all injuries are caused by falls to the ground, protective surfacing under and around all playground equipment is the most critical safety factor on playgrounds.

Certain manufactured synthetic surfaces also are acceptable; however, test data on shock absorbing performance should be requested from the manufacturer.

Asphalt and concrete are unacceptable. They do not have any shock absorbing properties. Similarly, grass and turf should not be used. Their ability to absorb shock during a fall can be reduced considerably through wear and environmental conditions.

Certain loose-fill surfacing materials are acceptable. Surfacing materials are acceptable, such as the types and depths shown in the table.

Shredded Tires*

*This data is from tests conducted by independent testing laboratories on a 6-inch depth of uncompressed shredded tire samples produced by four m anufacturers. The tests reported critical heights, which varied from 10 feet to greater than 12 feet. It is recommended that persons seeking to install shredded tires as a protective surface re

uest test data from the supplier showing the critical height of the material when it was tested in accordance with ASTM F1292.

It should be recognized that all injuries due to falls cannot be prevented no matter what surfacing material is used.

3.6m) N/A N/A N/A

2. Fall Zones - A fall zone, covered with a protective surfacing material, is essential under and around equipment where a child might fall. This area should be free of other equipment and obstacles onto which a child might fall. Stationary climbing equipment and slides should have a fall zone extending a Minimum of 6' in all directions from the perimeter of the equipment.

Swings should have a fall zone extending a minimum of 6' from the outer edge of the support structure on each side. The fall zone in front and back of the swing should extend out a minimum distance of twice the height of the swing as measured from the ground to the top of the swing support structure.

LEVELING YOUR FORT DURING ASSEMBLY

• Complete the steps which will be the basic frame of the fort {i.e. four corner posts with base (sand box boards) and deck supports}

• Position in the most level area chosen for the playset, keeping in mind the location and size of the swing beam, ladder, slides, etc. that extend off the fort.

• Once the frame is in the final position, check for vertical and horizontal levelness to determine which side(s) will need to be dug into the ground to level the play set.

• With a shovel, score the ground around the outside edges of the sandbox boards on the ‘high’ side of the fort. This is the area that will be dug in. Make sure to score deep enough; the scored lines will be your digging template.

• Push the frame off and away from the scored area, far enough to dig and remove dirt to reach the appropriate depth.

• Dig a channel along the scored line(s) for the base of the fort (corner post and sandbox boards) to rest into. Dig the channel(s) to the same level depth. The bottom of the channel(s) should be level to each other so your frame doesn’t teeter or rock because the channel(s) are uneven.

• Once you have removed enough grass and dirt, slide/push the frame into the channel(s). Place a level on the vertical and horizontal boards of the frame to determine if enough soil, or too much, was removed.

• Repeat this process until the basic frame is plumb and level and in its final position before completing the rest of the assembly.

• Measure to make sure fort is square.

Important: if you require a channel depth of more than 6”, then we recommend you have your play set area professionally graded before completing assembly.

Example play area:

THE DIAGONAL MEASUREMENTS SHOULD BE THE SAME FROM CORNER POST TO CORNER POST. IF NOT, ADJUST FORT SO THAT THE DISTANCE IS EQUAL.

Helpful Installation Hints

• Depending on your experience, assembly of Gorilla playsets can take as little as 6 hours up to 24 hours, depending on size, after inventory of parts; therefore, we recommend you set aside a full two days for assembly.

• Identify all of the parts for your playset. Empty each box and lay out boards so you can see each part. Your instruction book will have detailed drawings that will make it easy for you to recognize individual parts. Keep all hardware and metal parts separate from wooden pieces.

• After everything is laid out, check carefully to ensure all parts are present. Make sure there are no broken boards.

• Find an area to sort your hardware. It is best to open the hardware on a solid surface so that you do not lose any pieces in the grass. This will save time and familiarize you with all the different pieces in the hardware bag.

• Important note: Wood has some natural defects such as knots, surface cracks, etc… We reject parts that are structurally defective. We use a high quality lumber in our structures; however, you should inspect each part for splinters or rough spots and sand them smooth to prevent injury.

• After familiarizing yourself with all of the components, read all instructions thoroughly. Reading instructions after you have studied the parts will help you understand more clearly the installation process, and help to eliminate unnecessary mistakes.

• Pay close attention to the diameter and length of each bolt and screw.

• Never tighten hardware completely at first. It helps to have some adjustment for bolt

alignment while you are attaching parts together. After everything is square, tighten each joint.

• After the main unit is assembled it is critical that the floor is level and square. If the main frame is not level, the walls and floor will be out of square.

• After you complete installation, make sure every bolt, screw, and nut is tight, and every board is secure. Wood will expand and contract with the seasons.

• Check all bolt connections and swing hangers FREQUENTLY.

• Place the set on level ground, not less than 6ft from any structure or obstruction such as a

fence, garage, house, overhanging branches, laundry lines, or electrical wires.

General Info To Review Before Installation

This page is a list of definitions and explanations used throughout our instructions to aid you in the assembly of your playset.

Offset Holes-

This refers to the orientation of the holes on the board. An offset hole is one that is closer to one side than it is the other or in other words, it is not centered on the board. In the procedures you will be instructed to attach the boards with the holes offset up or with the holes offset down. This refers to which side of the board the hole/holes should be closer to. Offset holes up= hole/holes will be closer to the top of the board. Offset holes down= hole/holes will be closer to the bottom of the board. Note: some parts do not have offset holes, but instead the holes are on center. Therefore there will not be any reference to how to offset these parts.

Throughout the installation procedures we will refer to parts with offset holes.

EXAMPLE OF OFFSET HOLES UP

Counter-sunk holes-

counter-sunk hole is one that surrounds one side of a thru hole, but does not extend through the wood it’s self. When using a counter-sunk hole the bolt will be inserted through the thru hole and either the head of the bolt and washer or nut and washer will occupy the counter sunk hole.

Lag Screws-

integrity of the unit. There will not be predrilled holes in the post for lag screw installation. Lag screws are self-tapping, though if you are using a manual socket wrench it may be necessary to tap the head of the lag screw with a hammer. You should also be sure to tighten the lags completely. Power tools such as an impact wrench or power drill should have enough torque to drive the lag screws without using a hammer, but make sure not to over tighten as this can cause the threads to “strip out” in the post.

Lag screws are used in the construction of our playsets to enhance the structural

Many of the parts that will be used have counter-sunk holes. A
