recommend having a carpenter involved in the project. Please read through the entire manual before
starting!!

For 2 men, it took 4 hours, using the tools listed below, to assemble this unit. However, it will proba­bly take you a little longer since it will be a new project for you.

Take a deep breath and get at it, the satisfaction and enjoyment of playing in this unit is only a few
hours away. Have Fun!!!!!

each corner to remove
plastic.

Step 3: Remove all the parts from the kit and systematically lay them out on the
ground surface. Remove plastic wrapping from all parts.

Step 6: At the specific location
where you intend to erect your
play set, arrange the four pieces
as follows: the 72” piece with six
holes will be placed to the front,
the 72” piece with four holes will
be placed to the back, and the
two 86-1/4” pieces with no holes
will make up the sides of the
base. The 5/8” holes in the mid­section of the front piece must
be left of center, to line up with
the holes in the floor.

Step 7: Assemble the base by securing each corner of the base with three 2-1/2"
deck screws through the predrilled holes in the 72" front and back pieces into the
86-1/4" sides, keeping the 2 x 6's flush on the outside.

Step 8: When base is
completed stand floor
upright on its right side,
approximately 4-1/2' to
the right side of the base

Step 9: Insert three 90-1/2" 4x4 posts through the front
three post holes in the poly decking; keep the larger
recessed portion of the bolt holes in the post facing
towards the back of the play set. Also keep the

chipped top end of each post facing to the right.
with the poly decking
facing away from
base.

Step 10: When you insert posts, promptly insert 1/2"
x 4-3/4" carriage bolts through 5/8" holes in the floor
into 5/8" recessed holes in posts; line up the two
holes in floor with second set in posts, and insert
bolts.

Step 11: Install the two 54-1/2"
back posts at back corners of
your play set with the recessed
holes in the post facing towards
the front. Stand the base on the
right side as you are installing
4-3/4" carriage bolts through
the 2 x 6s in the floor and base
into the posts. The bottom
holes in the posts will line up
with the holes in the 2x6s of
the base.
