Important
Please read completely before beginning installation.
This equipment has been designed for safety as well as fun. This equipment has been designed to reduce injuries and therefore must be installed “Step by Step” per our Instructions.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) published a report stating 79% of all playground injuries treated in U.S. Emergency Rooms was the result of a fall. It is critical that you refer to the Protective Surfacing section of these instructions, located on the next page prior to installing your playground. As the owner you are responsible for the safe installation of not only the play equipment, but also the safety of the site.
When your receive your playground
• Identify all parts by comparing them to the part list.
• Always compare the number of pallets, cartons or other items the BOL
has listed with the number actually received. Note any discrepancies on the BOL.
• Also note any obvious damage to the packing materials, pallets or
components on the BOL.
Equipment should be inventoried and installed within a few days of receipt. The packing materials are meant to protect the equipment during shipping and not for storage. Heat, weather and sunlight can damage the packing materials, which can impact the components. If storage is required you must store the equipment in a controlled environment away from heat, moisture and sunlight. SportsPlay recommends carefully unpacking the unit and taking an inventory before storing the equipment. Care should be taken with all powder coated
• parts to prevent damage to the coating. Additionally all plastic panels
need to be stored flat to prevent warping.
• You have 30 days from receipt of your equipment to file a claim for
missing or damaged parts.
Before you begin
Review your playground footing and top view drawings to ensure your site is large enough. The use zone for playground structures extends 6’ (72”) from its perimeter. Remember that you may not overlap the use zone of any slide with another playground. These guidelines are available from the CPSC (contact information for the CPSC is located on the next page).
• Read through the entire instruction booklet before beginning the actual
installation.
• Before you begin preparing the site or digging any holes you must first
contact you local utility companies so they can visit the site and mark all of the buried utilities. In the U.S. you may call 811 and your call will be routed to your local utility center.
• This equipment was designed to install on a clear and level site. There
should be no more than 3” of grade variations in a 10’ span.
• Footing layout is the first critical step once the installation begins. Mark
all holes using the footing diagram. Prior to digging holes compare the measurements from the footing diagram to the actual site markings to ensure accuracy. Then check it again!
• Our in-ground posts are manufactured to accommodate 12” of
protective surfacing. (12” loose and 9” compacted)
3/1/15

901-801 EXPLORER
• Our surface mount posts are manufactured for surfacing levels of 3” –
12”. At 12” the surfacing will be as high as the slide bed but when compacted there will be space. At this deck height it is ok to have the slide bed end at the top of the surfacing.
• Do not leave the jobsite un-attended during installation unless all access
points to the play area are secure, all bolts and fasteners are tight and all ground holes are covered.
• SportsPlay Equipment inc. has provided two warning labels that state:
“WARNING – Installation over a hard surface such as concrete, asphalt or packed earth may result in serious injury or death from falls.” These labels must be installed on vertical posts as per ASTM F1487. Instructions for the placement of these labels are included in this booklet.
• SportsPlay will provide manufacturer identification labels that must be
installed on the structure during installation per ASTM F1487. Installation instructions for these labels are included in this instruction manual.
• Labels must be replaced when they are no longer legible. Contact your
distributor for replacement labels.
• Evaluate the site for drainage. To ensure good drainage around the
equipment consult a local professional.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
Safety Surfacing
WARNING! – INSTALLATION OVER A HARD SURFACE SUCH AS CONCRETE, ASPHALT OR PACKED EARTH MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH FROM A FALL
Because accidental falls are likely to occur around play equipment, SportsPlay Equipment Inc. recommends that a resilient safety surfacing that will meet standard ASTM F1292 be placed under and around the structure and extend throughout the entire use zone.
SportsPlay Equipment Inc. does not manufacture safety surfacing. All manufacturers of safety surfacing require different depths of surfacing for fall heights. Consult your surfacing supplier about the required safety surfacing depth for your play equipment.
This equipment was designed for multiple mounting options, all of which require safety surfacing. This unit is designed for 12” of safety surfacing that compacts to 9”. If using the in ground post extensions you will have to adjust the depth of the post depending on the amount of surfacing the surfacing supplier recommends. The surface mount (concrete or spike method) can still accommodate this amount of surfacing but the surfacing will actually sit on top of the post feet and step.
Refer to the CPSC Handbook for Public Playground Safety for the recommended type and depth of the protective surfacing as well as all other playground safety concerns.
For a copy of the most current issue of the CPSC Handbook for Public Playground Safety, write to:
For a copy of either the standard for surfacing (ASTM F1292) or for play equipment (ASTM 1487) write to:
You must consider the type of safety surfacing you will use before beginning the installation process. There are two general types, organic/loose fill or synthetic unitary (pour in place). You must know which type of surfacing you are going to use prior to installing the playground.
If loose fill surface material is to be used (example: wood mulch) you will need to consider containment borders. There are many products to choose from including hard plastic and natural products such as wood (Creosoted railroad ties are NOT recommended for use as borders in a play area). Loose fill materials are easily displaced so use of some type of containment border is necessary to keep the surfacing material inside the intended area. Some customers also prefer to have a weed mat installed to prevent weed growth. Choose a mat that will prevent growth but will also allow for drainage.
