Northern Leisure/Kiddy Rides is a registered Inspection Body of ADIPS (the Amusement
Device Inspection Procedure Scheme), conducting independent examinations and
certification of children’s coin operated rides in accordance with guidance published by the
Health and Safety Executive (HSE). By independent, we mean we are not linked to any
particular manufacturer and will apply the guidance with equal diligence, regardless of the
type of ride, or it’s manufacturer. Remember, our aim is to help you comply with the HSE
guidelines.
Because of the young age of those who enjoy coin operated children’s rides (kiddie rides),
safety should be of paramount importance to operators. There is surely a moral duty to
safeguard the children that use our industry’s products.
Safety doesn’t just happen however, it requires commitment from manufacturers, operators
and inspectors to ensure high standards. As an operator it is your duty to make yourself
aware of safety requirements, especially as failure to comply can lead to injury to children,
and furthermore, prosecution. By adopting a few simple procedures and having annual safety
checks performed on your rides, you can show yourself to be conforming with HSE and Local
Authority guidelines. Also you will gain peace of mind knowing that you have taken active
steps to minimize the risks to young children who use your rides.
It is not always easy to find out exactly what is required of an operator. However there are
strict guidelines laid down by BACTA (British Amusement and Catering Trade Association)
entitled Kiddie Rides; A Safety Guide. It is produced by a committee of BACTA members,
some of whom represent manufacturers of kiddie rides themselves. The guide is fully
endorsed by the HSE.
In an attempt to highlight the importance of safety within the industry, ADIPS has been
integrated into the BACTA guidelines. This initiative sets out procedures which must be
observed by registered Inspection Bodies. Furthermore, ADIPS is unified with the HSE

Fairground and Amusement Parks Code of Safe Practice.

To comply with this, a ride must undergo a thorough examination, and documentation must
be issued, be retained, and be available for inspection by the Health and Safety Inspectorate
and/or an officer of the Environmental Health Department of the local authority.
Thorough examinations must be carried out at least every fourteen months (annual
examinations are recommended).
Certification of rides by approved inspectors will give responsible operators within our
industry the credibility they deserve. An ADIPS certificate is a badge of excellence, ensuring
you have taken all the necessary steps to ensure danger risks are kept to a minimum.
In the past, inspections of children’s rides by the HSE appeared to be taking place in
response to safety related incidents. However, this is changing rapidly, and it would appear
random tests are under way. Inspectors requesting ADIPS documentation after a safety
related incident is likely to become standard practice.
So, safety first. Don’t wait for an accident to happen before you consider the safety of your
rides, get them ADIPS tested now.

Safety Matters

Amusement Device
Inspection Procedures Scheme

INITIAL INSPECTION

Upon arrival of the machine, it is important to check the following items:

a. Damage to external packing.

b. Physical damage to the ride.
c. Correct documentation is present.
d. Ride Serial Number.
e. Correct main’s voltage rating
f. Coin mechanism currency and credits

Any damage or discrepancies should be reported to your supplier immediately.

INITIAL OPERATION

a. Read the operators manual fully prior to operating the ride.

b. Prior to connecting the machine to the mains supply, ensure that it corresponds to the

supply rating, which should be stated on a sticker or plate on the rear of the base
close to the mains cable outlet.

c. Upon power up, the lights on the buttons and outer body should illuminate, and begin

to flash. The screen on the dashboard will also display start up text. An audible
message may also be heard stating the ride model and version.

d. Insert the correct coinage for the operation of the ride, after which the start button will

flash, and / or an audible prompt will be heard for you to “press the start button”.

e. Press the start button and the ride will begin to operate. All lights will flash or

illuminate, the screen will play a video sequence and music will begin to play. Check
the volume is set to a desired level. Press the feature buttons in turn, and the
appropriate sound effect or interaction will take place. ( please note, each feature
must have completed its cycle before another feature can be activated).

f. Whilst the ride is in operation, check that everything is working correctly, and that

there are no unusual noises or vibrations. When the ride has operated for the pre set
duration (usually around 90 seconds) the ride will automatically stop. A farewell voice
message may be heard, and the ride is once again ready to accept coins.

g. Make a note of the rides serial number. This is located on the silver manufacturers

plate at the rear of the ride. The serial number gives access to essential details of
your machine, including your machines parts and history.

3

SITING THE RIDE

The following conditions must be observed when siting the machine:

a. The machine must be placed on level ground which is firm and free from any holes

etc. Where possible, a non-slip surface would be recommended.

b. The ride is designed for protected locations. The ride should not be sited in any area

where it would be subjected to water splash. The ride, in some circumstances, may
be sited outdoors under a canopy, which will protect it from rain, although this is not
recommended.

c. The machine should be connected to a Residual Current Device (RCD socket) having

a rated residual current not exceeding 30mA.

d. The ride should be sited clear from any obstruction. The manufacturer recommends

that the machine is sited with a minimum of 2ft (610mm) clearance all around and
away from any other obstruction or item of equipment.

e. The ride should be situated as close as possible to the power source, and the mains

cable must be safely secured and protected, to eliminate any risk of tripping or
damage.

f. The ride should not be sited in an area where it may cause an obstruction.

g. Always ensure that the mains plug is accessible, so that the mains power may be

isolated in an emergency.

4

DAILY CHECKS

A check of each coin-operated Kiddy Ride should, whenever reasonably practical,
be carried out each day before it is made available for public use. The following
checks are recommended:

a. Check that the mains plug is undamaged and securely attached to the mains

cable, with no visible wires.

b. Check the mains cable / supply cord itself has no damage.

c. Make sure there are no broken, damaged or sharp parts of the ride which

may cause injury.

d. Check that all covers and guards are in place thus preventing any access to

the rides mechanism.

e. Ensure there is no unusual excess wobble or play from the ride.

f. Make sure all advisory literature is in place.

g. Ensure the area around the ride is free from obstruction and that persons

passing by are not in any danger.

h. The ride should be kept clean and free from any customised additions unless

approved by the manufacturer.

i. Insert coins and run the ride to ensure everything is operating correctly.

If as a result of the above visual checks any doubt arises, then the company,
supplier, or person responsible for the ride should be notified immediately.

5

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

6

TAKING CARE OF YOUR RIDE

All Northern Leisure Group Ltd. rides are manufactured in the U.K. using a high quality
Lead Free self coloured GRP. This material can be maintained easily, and kept to a
very high standard by taking day to day care of your ride.

CLEANING

To ensure you get the maximum life span from your machine, a day to day clean is
recommended. Clean the main areas of the ride with a damp cloth rinsed out in soapy
water. Ensure the cloth is not drenched in water and avoid any electrical components
such as coin-mech, lights, buttons etc. Do not hose down or flood the machine!
Alternatively, a household furniture polish can also be used, or in cases of an
extremely dirty ride, Kiddy Rides recommend using a good automotive cleaning
compound. This material is available through Northern Leisure / Kiddy Rides. Do not
use any solvent based materials when cleaning your ride.

The Coin Mechanism, or Coin Mech is located on the left hand side of the rides entrance.
Access for the coin mech is gained by opening the lock on the metal face plate, and simply
lifting it out towards yourself. The mech and connection can now be easily inspected or
cleaned at this point. See page 10.

COIN MECHANISM

Do NOT use any form of water jet to clean the ride!

Standard Operation And Adjustments

Control Box / Timer - The control system in this ride is a ‘Kermit Navigator’ box.

This is located behind the rear door on the ride, in this case the door is themed as the Campers
Boot/Trunk. It is accessed by removing the 2 bolts using a 4mm hex/allen key.

Once the door is removed, it leaves the Kermit Box, and its connections easily accessible.
If required, the box can be removed from the ride by removing the two small allen bolts which hold
the mounting tags using a 2.5mm hex key. Once the bolts are removed, simply pull the box upwards
disengaging the lower mounting tag.

*Ensure all connections to the Kermit Box are disconnected before removal.

Ride Time - The length of time that each ride lasts is pre-programmed, and can not be changed.

The standard length for each ride is approximately 90 seconds.

Volume Settings - (The power must remain on, and the ride should be running to adjust the

volume settings on this control system.).

The volume level of the theme tune can be adjust using the silver toggle switch located on the left
hand side of the Kermit control box (Fig.1). Toggle the switch away from yourself to decrease the
volume, and towards yourself to increase the volume. Each movement or toggle adjusts the volume
by one level. Toggle the switch multiple times to adjust the level further, do not hold in position.

The pushbutton sound effect volume control buttons are located on the right hand side of the control
box as indicated by the diagram on the box lid (Fig.2). There are 2 small buttons (Fig.1), the top one
increases the volume (+), and the one beneath it decreases the volume (-).
To adjust the level of these, the volume buttons must be pressed when a pushbutton has been
activated and the sound effect can be heard.
.

Please note: The pushbutton must be pressed and the sound effect must be playing in order to
adjust the volume.

PRICE OF PLAY - The price of play is the cost of each turn on the ride, e.g. 1 ride for 50p. The cost
per ride and currency is set at manufacture, and the operator’s preference must be stated at the time
of purchase. However, if you find it absolutely necessary to have these settings changed at a later
date, then it is possible. Simply set the switch bank to the desired configuration. Please refer to the
table below. The switch bank is located next to the volume controls (see fig.2) Contact the
manufacturer for any support or advice.

*Please note that the rides power must be off when changing any switch settings. The power should
then be switched back on, once completed, for any changes to take effect.

THE COIN MECH

In order to ensure maximum efficiency from your coin mech it is essential to pay regular attention
to the cleaning of the coin pathway. Before attempting to clean or remove the mech, the machine
should be switched off. Any cleaning should be carried out by using a soft damp cloth. The
surface should always be left clean and dry after such cleaning.
If any drops of water enter the product, leave the machine switched off for sufficient time to dry
out before switching the power back on again.

Never use solvents to clean the mech. This will damage the surfaces.
Note: Failure to switch the machine off before cleaning could result in inconsistent coin acceptance.

The coin mechanism used is an RM5 Evolution.

Removal Of Body Shell (2 persons required)

To remove the Body Shell from its base you must gain access to the four Body Mounting Bolts.
The first is located just inside of the entrance floor, infront of the metal inspection door. Remove

this dome headed Allen bolt using a 5mm Hex/Allen Key.
The second front fastening is located inside of the front driver seat.

To access this, remove the grill on the side of the seat .
Once removed, this reveals an opening and the body/base mounting can be reached through this.
Once located remove the bolt and washers using a 13mm socket wrench or spanner.

The back mounting bolts are accessed through the rear door on the ride. Remove the two Allen
Bolts from the hatch using a 4mm hex key and lift the door towards yourself. Directly in front of you
through the opening is the Kermit Control Box and all it’s connections. Behind this is the wooden
floor of the ride where you will find the two rear bolts. Remove the nuts using a 13mm socket or
spanner.

Once all four mountings are removed ensure you disconnect all connections to the Kermit Box.
Making sure that all wires & connections are unplugged and free from snagging, the body shell can
now be removed from the base mechanism by lifting the body upwards.

*Please note that it is recommended that two or more people should be used to lift off the
shell. The shell needs to be lifted until the base of the shell is clear of all base components.
manual handling and lifting guidelines should be followed, as set out by the HSE. This can
be found by visiting

Once the ride is separated, a full inspection of the Base Mechanism can be carried out.
This level of maintenance should only be carried out by a competent person. If care is not
taken when inspecting or servicing the ride, there may be risk of damaging components
or personal injury.

6 RECOMMENDATIONS BEFORE USE

During storage, a settling low of the charge may appear. Mix the product thoroughly before use so as to have a

homogeneous mixture.
Before use, check that the temperature of the product, the mould and the room is between 18°C and 25°C.
For NPA version, take care not to mix the accelerator and the peroxide together but add them seperatly in the

resin.
Mix the peroxide well, never put under 1% or over 2%
We recommend to add 2% of MEKP peroxide in the resin.
We retain the attention on the fact that the Norester® 976 is classified according to the certificates named

above and tested on applications produced in our laboratory. It is the responsibility of the customer to assure

that the parts he produces are well classified.

7 POST CURING

To obtain optimum resistance properties, the laminate with the Norester® 976 must be post-curing. In order to
accelerate the hardening, the laminate stays at ambient temperature (16 à 20 °C) during 24 hours followed a post­curing of 16 hours at 40°C. We advise to do a post-curing immediately after ripening period to obtain optimums
results.

8 PACKAGING

Available in cans of 25 Kg and drums of 250 Kg.

9 STORAGE CONDITIONS AND HANDLING
