Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT: Place the slide on level ground, not less than six feet (1.8 meters) from any
structure or obstruction such as a fence, garage, house, overhanging branches, laundry lines or electrical wires. Protective surfacing must extend a minimum of 6 ft. (1.828m) in all directions from the
perimeter of the equipment or from the outermost edges of any
component. A slide extending beyond the platform must have protective surfacing at least 6 ft.
(1.828m) out from both sides as well as the end. An area of 21" on either side of the slide should be
free of obstructions which a childs arm could contact.
1. Cut lumber as indicated in Fig. 1. You will require two 36" legs, two 13-1/2" cross supports and one 18''
stake. Angle the tops of the two 36" legs as indicated.
2. Assemble the slide support using three (3) 2-1/2'' Deck Screws at each joint.
3. Assemble the slide halves with a bolt, 2 washers and loc nut at each hole as indicated in Fig. 3.
4. Line up slide 90° to the platform and mark three holes 2-1/2" from the end (See Fig. 3).
5. Attach the slide to the platform with included 1'' Truss Head Screws.
6. After the slide is attached to the platform, attach the slide support to the bottom half of the slide using
one screw per side as indicated in Fig. 5. Square the support to the ground and bury the ends of the
brace. NOTE: The bottom cross support should rest firmly on the ground.
7. Prepare a level area of ground where the bottom of the slide rests 2" below grade (Fig. 4).
8. Mark where the slide’s bottom center meets the ground and drive a 2" x 4" x 18" stake until its top is
flush to the grade prepared in Step 6. (See Fig. 3)
9. Using a 1/8" drill bit, drill a pilot hole through the bottom lip of the slide and into the stake, and attach
the two using the screw provided. (See Fig. 3) NOTE: Be careful to drill into the center of the stake’s
end. Level grade around the base making sure the screw head is buried and presents no hazard.
