ANCHORING

ANCHORING is necessary to prevent tipping, lifting, and overturning. Playsafe™ recommends anchoring the swing set
in concrete, especially in soft or sandy soil. When this is not possible, anchors can be purchased by calling 1-800-242-6110.

To anchor the swing set in concrete, dig a hole at least 5” deep and 10 ” to 12 ” in dia meter. Place the swing set leg in the
hole, preferably on a brick or stone to keep if from sinking. Be sure the swing leg is set 3” below the ground. Also make
sure the swing set is level. Pour concrete around the legs and fill the hole. Cover concrete adequately using the
recommended surfacing instruction in this manual. Allow the concrete to cure according to the concrete manufacturer’s
instruction before use.

CONSUMER INFORMATION FOR PLAYGROUND SURFACING MATERIALS

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that 100,000 playground related injuries are treated annually in U.S.
hospital emergency rooms. Injuries involving this hazard pattern tend to be among the most serious of all playground injuries,
and have the potential to be fatal, particularly when the injury is to the head. The surface under and around the playground
equipment can be a major factor in determining the injury-causing potential of a fall. It is self-evident that a fall on a shock­absorbing surface is less likely to cause a serious injury than a fall onto a hard surface. Playground equipment should never be
placed on a hard surface such as concrete or asphalt and while grass may appear to be acceptable it may quickly turn to hard,
packed earth in areas of high traffic. Shredded bark mulch, wood chips, fine sand or fine gravel are considered to be acceptable
shock absorbing surfaces when installed and maintained at a sufficient depth under and around playground equipment.

The following table lists the maximum height from which a child would not be expected to sustain a life-threatening injury in a
fall onto four different loose-fill surfacing materials if they are installed and maintained at depths of 6, 9, and 12 in. However, all
injuries due to a fall can not be prevented no matter what surfacing materials are used.

FALL HEIGHT IN FEET FROM WHICH A LIFE

THREATENING INJULY WOULD NOT BE EXPECTED
Material Type 6 in. depth 9 in. 12 in.
Double Shredded
Bark Mulch 6’ 10’ 11’
Wood Chips 6’ 7’ 12’
Fine Sand 5’ 5’ 9’
Fine Gravel 6’ 7’ 10’

It is recommended that a shock absorbing material should extend a minimum of 6’ in all directions from the perimeter of the
stationary equipment such as climbers and slides. However, because children may deliberately jump from a moving swing, the
shock absorbing material should extend in front and rear of the swing a minimum distance of 2 times the height of the pivot point
measured from a point directly beneath the pivot on the supporting structure.
