10: HEIGHT
IMPORTANT: The Hangpod should be installed at a
maximum height of 20cm off the ground, and minimum
height of 10cm at its lowest point (with your child inside).
NOTE: Some further height adjustment may be required
once the Hangpod is installed and your child has got
inside, so ensure you observe again once in use and
recheck this height off the ground. Check this safe
height from time to time to ensure continued safety
compliance.

IMPORTANT: The Hangpod is not a swing. Never leave
young children unattended in the Hangpod. Make sure
that the product is not misused in any manner that may
pose a danger. Non-compliance poses an acute risk of
injury for which no liability will be assumed.
IMPORTANT: The Hangpod is rated to a maximum
occupant weight of 50kg. Make sure that all hardware
and accessories you use comply with, or go beyond
this weight and load bearing requirement.
8: HOOP
Ensure that the Hangpod hoop section only comes
into contact with the rope supplied, NOT metal or other
abrasive material or fixtures, as this will greatly reduce
the life of your Hangpod.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that all excess rope is securely
tied up and away from reach of children. If you are
certain about where you've hung your Hangpod and do
not need the excess rope, trim and heat-seal the end of
the rope to prevent fraying.
11: DO NOT TWIST
Do not twist your Hangpod on its axis. Doing so may
reduce its lifespan. Fabrics and ropes are subject to
wear and tear, and may become thin or brittle with time.
IMPORTANT: Any elements that show signs of wear
should be replaced immediately.
IMPORTANT: Check your mounting options with a
qualified professional if unsure.
IMPORTANT: Suspend the Hangpod where it will be
free of walls or other objects that may pose a danger
to your child. Ideally use the Hangpod over a carpeted
floor to reduce potential injury from falls.
IMPORTANT: This product is not suitable for children
below the age of three years. Babies should never
be placed in the Hangpod as the cushion poses
suffocation risk and there is a great danger of falling.
IMPORTANT: Like with most other natural fabrics,
damp or wet conditions will damage your Hangpod.
Keep it dry. If it does get wet, remove the cushion and
hang-dry separately.
IMPORTANT: Check for wear and tear regularly –
especially around the top hoop and rope. The Hangpod
is made out of 100% cotton natural fibre, as such it has
a limited lifespan.
IMPORTANT: Exposure to excessively heavy loads,
direct sunlight, damp weather conditions, cleaning,
etcetera, will shorten the life of the product. Monitor
the carrying capacity of your Hangpod from time to
time. Remove and dispose if it is no longer safe.
9: KNOT
Loop the rope provided through the Hangpod hoop,
adjust to the desired height and then knot the rope.
Check and recheck your knot to make sure it does
not give, is completely tight and can support your
child's weight. You may use a Heaving Line Knot or a
Figure 8 Follow Through Knot.
NOTE: www.animatedknots.com provides good
reference for these knots and more, or you can simply
use google to research the most appropriate knot type.
12: OUTDOORS
When attached with an appropriate carabiner,
the versatile Hangpod can be quickly moved about
from room to room, and from indoors to outdoors in
dry weather. The Hangpod may even be attached to
a secure branch outside (if your child is able to enjoy it
without endangering themselves).
REQUIRED ACCESSORIES
The Hangpod comes supplied with a special purposely
designed rope fitting, however depending on your install
location you may need a carabiner and/or appropriate
ceiling hook. We recommend getting a locking carabiner
and using a fully closed hook, so that the carabiner has
no possibility of jumping or slipping off. If available, it is
also advisable to get a swivelling carabiner attachment
to prevent twisting of the Hangpod hoop and rope.
