IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
As fresh lumber acclimates to its new environment, the
natural tendencies of the tree can show itself in the form of
checks, or “cracks” in the lumber. In almost all cases this is
normal and it will not aect the structural integrity of your play
set.
Cosmetic defects that do not aect the structural integrity
of the product, or natural defects of wood such as warping,
checking or any other physical properties of wood that do not
present a safety hazard, are not covered by this warranty.
Defects that develop because the product is exposed to
extreme climate conditions are not covered by this warranty.
Defects that develop as a result of faulty or improper
installation of the product are also not covered by this
warranty.
Most cracks are not warrantable, however if you believe
that the integrity of your play set is compromised by this
natural occurrence, please contact the Tree Frogs Swing Set
Dealer that you purchased your swing set from.
We appreciate your purchase and know that you will
enjoy your play system for many years to come.
●
Depending on your experience, assembly of our play sets can take as little as 6 hours up to 24 hours, depending on size, after
inventory of parts; therefore, we recommend you set aside a full two days for assembly.
● Identify all of the parts for your play set. Empty each box and lay out boards so you can see each part. Your instruction book will
have detailed drawings that will make it easy for you to recognize individual parts. Keep all hardware and metal parts separate
from wooden pieces.
● After everything is laid out, check carefully to ensure all parts are present. Make sure there are no broken boards.
● Find an area to sort your hardware. It is best to open the hardware on a solid surface so that you do not lose any pieces in the
grass.
This will save time and familiarize you with all the dierent pieces in the hardware bag.
**Important note: Wood has some natural defects such as knots, surface cracks, etc... We reject parts that are structurally
defective. We use a high quality lumber in our structures; however, you should inspect each part for splinters or rough spots and
sand them smooth to prevent injury.**
● After familiarizing yourself with all of the components, read all instructions thoroughly. Reading instructions after you have
studied the parts will help you understand more clearly the installation process, and help to eliminate unnecessary mistakes.
● Pay close attention to the diameter and length of each bolt and screw.
● Never tighten hardware completely at rst. It helps to have some adjustment for bolt alignment while you are attaching parts
together. After everything is square, tighten each joint.
● After the main unit is assembled it is critical that the oor is level and square. If the main frame is not level, the walls and oor
will be out of square.
● After you complete installation, make sure every bolt, screw, and nut is tight, and every board is secure. Wood will expand and
contract with the seasons.
● Place the set on level ground, not less than 6ft from any structure or obstruction such as a fence, garage, house, overhanging
branches, laundry lines, or electrical wires.
● All 1/4” and 3/8” lag bolts must have pre-drilled holes 1-1/2” to 2” deep. Use a 1/8” drill bit for the 1/4” lag bolts and 1/4” drill bit
for 3/8” lag bolts. Use pre-drilled holes in facias as a reference for placing lag bolt pilot holes.
● If a board lifts or rises causing a gap between boards when running in lag bolts or screws, back out the screw or lag bolt and press
or apply pressure (but not enough to crack or break board) while re¬running in the lag bolt or screw in the same hole.
● Do not over tighten bolts, lag bolts or screws. You can damage boards, break hardware, and/or strip out the hardware.
● When using hammer do not beat on the hardware, but gently tap it in. Never beat on the wood as it will leave marks.
● Complete the steps which will be the basic frame of the fort {i.e. four corner posts with base (sand box boards) and deck supports}
●
●
Position in the most level area chosen for the play set, keeping in mind the location and size of the swing beam, ladder, slides, etc. that extend o the fort.
Once the frame is in the nal position, check for vertical and horizontal levelness to determine which side(s) will need to be dug into the ground to level the play set.
● With a shovel, score the ground around the outside edges of the sandbox boards on the ‘high’ side of the fort. This is the area that
will be dug in. Make sure to score deep enough; the scored lines will be your digging template.
● Push the frame o and away from the scored area, far enough to dig and remove dirt to reach the appropriate depth.
●
Dig a channel along the scored line(s) for the base of the fort (corner post and sandbox boards) to rest into. Dig the channel(s) to the same
level depth. The bottom of the channel(s) should be level to each other so your frame doesn’t teeter or rock because the channel(s) are
uneven.
● Once you have removed enough grass and dirt, slide/push the frame into the channel(s). Place a level on the vertical and
horizontal boards of the frame to determine if enough soil, or too much, was removed.
● Repeat this process until the basic frame is plumb and level and in its nal position before completing the rest of the assembly.
● Measure to make sure fort is square.
** Important: if you require a channel depth of more than 6”,then we recommend you have your play set area professionally graded before
completing assembly. **
When choosing a location for your swing set, always keep your child or children’s safety in mind. Here are some
recommendations to help you locate and install a safe play area.
●
● On-site adult supervision is required.
●
● Do not install this residential swing set in a commercial setting. This swing set is not manufactured
● Never install this swing set indoors; or over concrete, asphalt, packed earth, grass, carpet or any other
This play set is designed for the use of 4 occupants who have a combined weight not exceeding 800 pounds
on the elevated oor; 3 occupants who have a combined weight of 525 pounds on the swing area; for a total Unit
capacity of 5 occupants who have a combined weight of 1325. (this weight is not including the picnic table area)
The swing set should be located on level ground. The stationary components such as ladders and slides
are required to be a minimum of six feet from any structure or obstruction such as a fence, garage, house,
tree, overhanging branches, electrical wires, clotheslines, etc. Any swinging equipment is also required to be a
minimum distance twice the height of the swing beam away from these obstructions or structures as well. The
swing set should be located a safe distance from any water hazards, such as a lake, river, bayou, swimming pool, etc.
for commercial usage and will void all warranties. Tree Frogs Wooden Swing Set Factory is not
responsible for any damages or injuries resulting from this swing set being used in a commercial setting.
hard surface. A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious or fatal injury.
●
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recommends that you install and maintain a resilient
surface under your swing set. The CPSC’s Consumer Information Sheet for Playground Surfacing Materials is on
the next page. A resilient surface, should be installed after the swing set has been completely assembled according
to these instructions. The swing set must rest on solid ground. Please note that this swing set has a maximum fall height of 7’.
Here are some maintenance tips required to insure safe play on your swing set for
years of fun.
●
At the beginning of each usage season and every two weeks during, check: nuts and bolts
and tighten as needed,swing seats, chains, ladders, slides, rope and wood components for sign of
deterioration and replace if necessary.
●
On a yearly basis, we recommend that you coat your swing set with a sealant or preservative.
You may also wantto spot sand any areas prior to sealing.
** Special note: Although we recommend that you reseal your swing set annually, you may have
to touch up the high trac areas and/or areas that have a high exposure to direct sunlight.**
●
Be sure that the sealant you select is non-toxic and child safe. Your local Tree Frogs Wooden
Swing Set Factory dealer may oer a complete power wash and reseal and maintenance program.
●
Do not use line trimmers or “weed eaters” around your swing set. The line will remove both paint
and wood from
uprights and base pieces. Any damage resulting from this type of abuse is not covered
under our limited warranty.
●
Remove plastic swing seats and take in doors or do not use when temperature drops below 0°F.
Please keep this install manual for future reference.
To insure SAFE PLAY adults must teach children:
● Not to walk close to, in front of, behind, or between moving items.
● Not to swing empty swing seats.
● Not to swing sideways into the path of adjacent swings.
● Not to use the swing set in a manner other than that for which it is intended.
● Not to get o the equipment while it is in motion.
● Not to jump o the tower.
● Not to stand in the swing seats.
● Not to swing so high that chains become slack, or above the height of the swing support.
● Not to jump on a slide.
● Not to climb on top of the swing support.
● Not to attach to the swing set any item that is not specically designed for use with the
equipment, such as (but not limited to) jump ropes, clotheslines, pet leashes, cables, and
chains. These may become strangulation hazards.
● To hold on to swings and climbers with both hands.
● To slide feet rst, never head rst.
● To watch for other children while swinging or playing near the swing set.
To also insure SAFE PLAY adults must:
● Limit climbing and swinging heights to each child’s ability.
● Verify that suspended climbing ropes are secured at both ends.
● Verify that suspended climbing ropes cannot be looped back on themselves.
● Dress children appropriately for play. Use well-tted shoes that do not have slippery soles.
● Avoid ponchos, scarves, hoods, loose tting clothing, neckties, and any clothing with a drawstring.
● Do not allow children to play wearing helmets.

CONSUMER INFORMATION SHEET FOR PLAYGROUND SURFACING MATERIALS
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates that about 100,000 playground equipment
related injuries resulting from falls to the ground surface 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 playground
equipment can be a major factor in determining the injury-causing potential of a fall. It is self-evident that a fall
onto a shock-absorbing surface is less likely to cause a serious injury than a fall onto a hard surface. However,
it should be recognized that some injuries from falls will occur no matter what playground surfacing material is
used.
Playground equipment should never be placed on hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt. Grass may appear
to be acceptable, but can turn to hard packed earth in areas of high trac. Shredded bark mulch, wood chips,
or ne gravel are considered to be acceptable shock absorbing surfaces when installed and maintained at a
sucient depth under and around play equipment.
TABLE 1 -CRITICAL HEIGHTS (in feet) OF TESTED MATERIAL
MATERIAL UNCOMPRESSED DEPTH COMPRESSED DEPTH
6 Inch 9 Inch 12 Inch 9 inch
Wood Chips 7 10 11 10
Double Shredded Bark Mulch 6 10 11 7
Engineered Wood Fibers 6 7 >12 6
Fine Sand 5 5 9 5
Coarse Sand 5 5 6 4
Fine Gravel 6 7 10 6
Medium Gravel 5 5 6 5
Shredded Tires** 10-12 N/A N/A N/A
** This is data from tests conducted by independent testing laboratories on a 6 inch depth of uncompressed
shredded tire samples produced by four manufacturers. The test reported critical heights, which varied from
10 feet to greater than 12 feet. It is recommended that persons seeking to install shredded tires as a protective
surface request test data from the supplier showing the critical height of the material when it was tested in
accordance with ASTM F1292.
Table 1 should be read as follows: If, for example, uncompressed wood chips are used at a minimum of 6 inches,
the Critical Height is 7 feet. If 9 inches of uncompressed wood chips are used, the Critical Height is 10 feet. It
should be noted that, for some materials, the Critical Height decreases when the material is compressed. It
is recommended that a shock absorbing material should extend a minimum of 6 feet in all directions from the
perimeter of stationary equipment such as climbers and slides. However, because children may deliberately
jump from a moving swing, the shock absorbing material should extend in the front and rear of a 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.
This information is intended to assist in comparing the relative shock-absorbing properties of various materials.
No particular material is recommended over another. However, each material is only eective when properly
maintained. Materials should be checked periodically and replenished to maintain correct depth as determined
necessary for your equipment. The choice of a material depends on the type and height of the playground
equipment, the availability in your area, and its cost.

Guide” and “Handbook for Public Playground Safety.” Copies of these reports can be obtained by sending a
