Installation of this type of equipment requires at least three people, and the use of a
lifting tower or platform.
1. Read all instructions carefully before starting assembly.
2. Check using the parts list and fixing kit list that none of the components are missing. If
any parts are missing contact our office.
3. Plan the final position of the play equipment ensuring there is sufficient space. See
ground plan for recommended safety surface area and critical fall height to EN-1176.
4. Excavate the foundation holes in accordance with the ground plan. Orchard is designed to be installed onto a level site.
5. Fit the ground shoes OPA001/006 (for wet pour surfacing) / OPA002/007 (for loose fill) to
the bottom of all posts but OTP214 / 220 / 221, using 3 x coach screws (M10 x 80).
Each post is numbered, and are marked with an 'X' on the bottom end.
6. Fit the rubber post caps to the top of each post using 3 x 50mm wood screws per cap.
7. Erect the main posts into the foundation holes using the ground plan for dimensions.
Assembling decks and activities between the posts will help to brace it before it is
concreted.
8. Ensure ropes and nets are taught before concreting the posts.
9. Assemble all activities and nets onto the posts in accordance with the assembly instructions in this document. Do not concrete the main legs until all the nets, panels,
and other activities are fitted, as adjustments may be required.
10. Fit the two spragging irons provided through the holes in the end of the painted slide bar.
11. When all the activities are fitted and decks are levelled, fill the foundation holes to the
required depth with concrete.
12. Do not allow the equipment to be used until the concrete has set (2-3 days) and the
required safety surface has been installed.
13. Check that all fixing bolts are fully tightened.
14. When all fixings are secure, fill the 40mm diameter counterbores in the posts with the
rubber bungs supplied.
15. Follow the maintenance instructions supplied.
NB: During installation, care must be taken to prevent hazards to children. If you are at all
unsure or have any questions, please contact the contracts department immediately for their
assistance and advice. Extra care should be taken if conditions are abnormal.
