CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Check all coverings for bolts and sharp edges and replace when required.
- Replace defective parts in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Please check the unit twice monthly during the usage season for tightness, and tighten as required. It is particularly important that this procedure be followed at the beginning of each season and monthly thereafter for evidence of deterioration. Replace as needed. If not checked regularly, parts can be loose or missed and components can become detached and cause injuries.
- DO NOT allow children to climb or to play when the product is wet. It may be slippery when wet.
- DO NOT leave this item exposed to strong wind and inclement weather.
- Clean the slide regularly with soapy water in order to avoid a build up of static electricity.
- NEVER attach any materials that are not specifically designed for use with this product, such as (but not limited to) jump ropes, clotheslines, pet leashes, cables and chains, these pose a potential strangulation hazard.
- Discard all packaging properly after unit has been assembled.
- Disassemble and dispose of this product in a safe place and manner so as not to present any hazard to any individual at the item when the product is discarded.
- At the beginning of each play season; rake and check depth of loose fill protective surfacing materials to prevent compaction and to maintain appropriate depth. Replace as necessary.
- At the beginning of each play season; check metal parts for rust. If found, sand and repaint using a non-lead based paint meeting the requirements of 16 CFR 1303.
- At the end of each play season or when temperature falls below 32°F / 0°C; remove the product and store indoors. In extreme cold weather, plastic materials lose resilience and may become brittle and crack upon impact.
- At the end of each play season or when temperature falls below 32°F / 0°C; rake and check depth of loose fill protective surfacing materials to prevent compaction and to maintain appropriate depth. Replace as necessary.

CONSUMER INFORMATION
Information on Playground surfacing materials:Maximum fall height for this product is 1 ft 9 inch / 527 mm
Select Protective Surfacing – One of the most important things you can do to reduce the likelihood of serious head injuries is to install shock-absorbing protective surfacing under and around your play equipment. The protective surfacing should be applied to a depth that is suitable for the equipment height in accordance with ASTM Specification F 1292. There are different types of surfacing to choose from; whichever product you select, follow these guidelines:
Loose-Fill Materials:Maintain a minimum depth of 9 inches of loose fill materials such as wood mulch/chips, engineered wood fiber (EWF), or shredded/recycled rubber mulch for equipment up to 8 feet high; and 9 inches of sand or pea gravel for equipment up to 5 feet high. NOTE: An initial fill level of 12 inches will compress to about a 9 inch depth of surfacing over time. The surfacing will also compact, displace, and settle, and should be periodically refilled to maintain at least a 9 inch depth.Use a minimum of 6 inches of protective surfacing for play equipment less than 4 feet in height. If maintained properly, this should be adequate. (At depths less than 6 inches, the protective material is too easily displaced or compacted.)NOTE: Do not install home playground equipment over concrete, asphalt, or any other hard surface. A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury to the equipment user. Grass and dirt are not considered protective surfacing because wear and environmental factors can reduce their shock absorbing effectiveness. Carpeting and thin mats are generally not adequate protective surfacing. Ground level equipment – such as a sandbox, activity wall, playhouse or other equipment that has no elevated play surface – does not need any protective surfacing. Use containment, such as digging out around the perimeter and/or lining the perimeter with landscape edging. Don’t forget to account for water drainage.Check and maintain the depth of the loose-fill surfacing material. To maintain the right amount of loose-fill materials, mark the correct level on play equipment support posts. That way you can easily see when to replenish and/or redistribute the surfacing. Do not install loose-fill surfacing over hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt. Poured-In-Place Surfaces or Pre-Manufactured Rubber Tiles – You may be interested in using surfacing other than loose-fill materials – like rubber tiles or poured-in-place surfaces. Installations of these surfaces generally require a professional and are not “do-it-yourself” projects. Review surface specifications before purchasing this type of surfacing. Ask the installer/manufacturer for a report showing that the product has been tested to the following safety standard: ASTM F1292 Standard Specification for Impact Attenuation of Surfacing Materials within the Use Zone of Playground Equipment. This report should show the specific height for which the surface is intended to protect against serious head injury. This height should be equal to or greater than the fall height – vertical distance between a designated play surface (elevated surface for standing, sitting, or climbing) and the protective surfacing below – of your play equipment. Check the protective surfacing frequently for wear. Placement – Proper placement and maintenance of protective surfacing is essential. Be sure to: Extend surfacing at least 6 feet from the equipment in all directions.
