Introduction installation

General information

This equipment should be installed, inspected, maintained and operated in ac­cordance with EN1176-7 guidelines.

Before installation work commences, please check that you have all of
the equipment and fixation components in the parts list provided (see
Tables 3-1 and 3-2).

Please consider that the installation has to be carried out only on even
terrain (max. slope up to 3%).

Any spare parts that may be required can be obtained directly from your sup­plier.

Please do not hesitate to call your supplier if you have any problems during in­stallation or in case of any other questions.

Following installation, complete assembly instructions, maintenance in­structions and maintenance record must be sent to the operator who
must confirm receipt in writing. See the last page of this document

All nuts and bolts are hot-dip galvanised or stainless steel.
One of the characteristics of stainless steel is that uncontrolled cold weld-

ing may occur when the nuts are tightened. To prevent this, it is neces­sary to spray the nuts and bolts with Teflon spray or another similar lubri­cant.

We hereby confirm that this play equipment has been tested and certi­fied in accordance with the play equipment standard EN 1176.

Examination after installation

If the equipment is not installed in a secure manner you must ensure that
access is closed to the public!

Marking the filling level

• Markings on the equipment to indicate filling levels of fall protection material
(for example of loose filling material).

The equipment has not been installed safely in the following cases:

• Installation of equipment is not complete.

• The protective surface has not been installed.

• The guarantee of safety in operation cannot be given by the appropriate main-

tenance works.

Removing assembly accessories

• Please make sure that all accessories, which were used for the installation of
the equipment, are removed from the play area! Only then the equipment can
be declared open.

Details concerning inspection of the equipment prior to the first use

• no special inspection required.

Retighten bolts

• After one week of operation, please retighten all bolts again. Later upon re­spective maintenance.

Introduction Maintenance

General information

This equipment should be installed, inspected, maintained and operated in ac­cordance with EN 1176-7 guidelines.

Please note: Providing any necessary repairs are carried out, a piece of
play equipment that is inspected regularly cannot become so damaged
that it is dangerous.

Any spare parts which may be required can be obtained directly from your
supplier.

This equipment should only be assembled, maintained and repaired by

persons with the necessary expertise.
A copy of the inspection record is to be handed out to the operator,

who must confirm receipt.

This maintenance instruction is based on the standard “EN 1176-1:2008”

General maintenance information

Maintenance intervals

Maintenance intervals are based on average use. Please note that more fre­quent inspections and/or maintenance are required if the play equipment is
subject to intensive use.

Inspection frequency

The frequency of inspections must be based on actual use. Factors that affect
frequency include vandalism, location (e.g. coastal proximity), air pollution and
the age of the equipment.

Maintenance products and procedures

All nuts and bolts are hot-dip galvanised or stainless steel. One of the charac­teristics of stainless steel is that uncontrolled cold welding may occur when the
nuts are tightened. To prevent this, it is necessary to spray the nuts and bolts
with Teflon spray or another similar lubricant.

Spare parts

All spare parts must conform to the manufacturer’s specifications.

Identifying spare parts

All replacement parts are listed in the parts list. The parts list can be found in chapter 3.

Special instructions for the disposal of individual equipment components

No special instructions are necessary.

Special measures in the starting time

No later than 2 weeks after assembly, all screwed connections should be
checked and tightened if necessary.

Maintenance of protective surfaces

Surfaces providing fall protection must also be maintained regularly. It is par­ticularly important to maintain the correct level of loose surface material and
add more if necessary.

\\Fileserver\text\PLAY\Play Installation Instructions\Installation Instructions 2012-2013\4591-50S-1+2-01-en-004.doc 2

Faults

Damages must be repaired as soon as they are detected. If serious de­fects that affect the safety cannot be repaired straight away, the play­ground item must be closed to the public with immediate effect.

Loose screws

Loose screws always cause quality problems and put safety at risk.
Therefore, loose screws should always be tightened and checks carried
out to ensure that there are no missing screws.

Preventing equipment use

The use of the equipment should be prevented in case of incomplete installa­tion, disassembly, maintenance, repairs and faults.

Claims/liability for faults (steel posts)

Steel posts and footings are covered by our guarantee if regular maintenance
is carried out and recorded in writing.

Our general terms and conditions apply. Maintenance of steel poles first takes
place after 3 years. The steel posts must be excavated down to the concrete
foundations and checked for corrosion.

Zinc paint should be applied to any corroded areas and scratches.

Check ropes for abrasion, replace ropes where coating is damaged down to
the steel inlet.

We strongly advise to carry out inspection and maintenance work within the speci­fied periods as use of the equipment, the weather and malicious vandalism cause
wear and tear that compromise safety and function of the equipment.

In the event of fault that compromises safety, quick action must be taken:
Either the equipment must be repaired immediately, or it has to be dismantled
or closed to the public!

Faults that compromise function should also be repaired immediately. Such faults
lower the value of the equipment to the user and encourage malicious vandalism,
which may render the equipment less safe. Any damages should be repaired imme­diately.

Maintenance and repair must be made by someone with the necessary exper­tise.

General information: Providing any necessary inspections and repairs are

carried out, a piece of play equipment that is inspected
regularly cannot become so damaged that it is dangerous

Monthly Maintenance

• Check the spaces between the equipment and the ground (clearance and
height of fall).

• Check the ground surface of fall protection for hard objects and loose
foundations.

• Check all connecting elements and fittings for wear and tear and tighten
if necessary. Replace damaged or missing parts.

• Check that moving metal parts (joints, springs, etc.) move smoothly and
are not worn. Replace if necessary. It is not necessary to lubricate joints
as we only use maintenance-free metal roller bearings.

• Check all attachments such as chains, ropes, nets, etc. for damage and
replace if necessary.

• Check all rubber parts, seals etc. for wear and tear or damage and re-
place if necessary.

• Check the surface of wooden parts for damage caused by the weather or
external influences and mould. Repair or replace if necessary.

• Check the surface of plastic and metal parts, e.g. slides, for damage and
replace if necessary.

Quarterly maintenance

• Detailed inspection of the operation and stability of the equipment pay-
ing particular attention to any wear and tear.

• Tighten all forms of attachment.

• Repaint and retreat surfaces.

• Maintenance of fall protection surfaces.

• Check height of fall protection material and fill up with loose filling mate-

rial if necessary. If the posts are marked, fill up correspondingly.

• Retighten all bolts.

Half-yearly maintenance

• The stability of supporting posts, supports, foundations etc. has to be
checked. The safety of the entire system has to be checked after repairs
are carried out or additional system components have been installed or
replaced.

Annual main inspection

• Check if the equipment, foundations and surfaces are safe for operation.

• The equipment is to be verified according to rotting and corrosion. For

that some parts might have to be excavated. Zinc paint should be
applied to any corroded areas and scratches.

• Check complete stability (check posts, bracing, foundations, etc.).

• Ascertaining whether there are any changes in equipment safety as a re-

sult of repairs that have been carried out or components that have been
added or replaced.

The equipment must be inspected by someone with the necessary ex­pertise in strict compliance with the instructions issued by Huck Seiltech-

nik GmbH.

A copy of the inspection record should be given to the operator,
who must confirm receipt.
