Advertisement

CONTINUOUS ADULT SUPERVISION REQUIRED. Most serious injuries and deaths on playground equipment have occurred
while children were unsupervised! Our products are designed to meet mandatory and voluntary safety standards. Complying
with all warnings and recommendations in these instructions will reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury to children using
this play system. Go over the warnings and safe play instructions regularly with your children and make certain that they
understand and follow them. Remember on-site adult supervision is required for children of all ages.
SERIOUS HEAD INJURY HAZARD
Installation over concrete, asphalt, dirt, grass, carpet and
other hard surface creates a risk of serious injury or death
from falls to the ground. Install and maintain shock absorbing
material under and around play-set as recommended on page
3 of these instructions.
COLLISION HAZARD
Place play-set on level ground at least 2m from any
obstruction such as a garage or house, fences, poles, trees,
sidewalks, walls, landscape timbers, rocks, pavement,
planters, garden borders, overhanging branches, laundry
lines, and electrical wires. (See OBSTACLE FREE SAFETY
ZONE on cover).
CHOKING HAZARD/SHARP EDGES & POINTS
Adult assembly required. This product contains small parts
and parts with sharp edges and points. Keep parts away from
children until fully assembled.
WARNING:
Lawn swings are designed for use by children two years of
age and older. The use by children under the age of two can
result in entrapment between the seat and back rest because
the child's body may pass through the opening, causing
entrapment of the child's head. Such entrapment may result
in strangulation. NEVER place children in a rearward facing
position or with legs between the seat and backrest.
WARNING – Safe Play Instructions
Observe capacity limitations of your play-set. See front cover.
Dress children with well fitting and full foot enclosing footwear.
Teach children to sit with their full weight in the center of the
swing seat to prevent erratic swing motion or falling off.
Check for splintered, broken or cracked wood; missing, loose,
or sharp edged hardware. Replace, tighten and or sand smooth
as required prior to playing.
Verify that suspended climbing ropes, rope ladders, chain or
cable are secured at both ends and cannot be looped back on
itself as to create an entanglement hazard.
On sunny and or hot days, check the slide and other plastic
rides to assure that they are not very hot as to cause burns.
Cool hot slide and rides with water and wipe dry prior to using.
Orientate slide such that it gets the least amount of exposure to
the sun.

Warnings and Safe Play Instructions

WARNING
STRANGULATION HAZARD
• NEVER allow children to play with ropes, clotheslines,
pet leashes, cables, chains or cord-like items when using
this play-set or to attach these items to play-set.
• NEVER allow children to wear loose fitting clothing,
ponchos, hoods, scarves, capes, necklaces, items with
draw-strings, cords or ties when using this play-set.
• NEVER allow children to wear bike or sport helmets
when using this play-set.
Failure to prohibit these items, even helmets with chin
straps, increases the risk of serious injury and death to
children from entanglement and strangulation.
TIP OVER HAZARD
Choose a level location for the equipment. This can reduce
the likelihood of the play set tipping over and loose-fill
surfacing materials washing away during heavy rains.
DO NOT allow children to play on the playhouse until the
assembly is complete and the unit is properly anchored.
Never add extra length to chain or rope. The chains or
ropes provided are the maximum length designed for the
swinging element(s).
WARNING LABEL
Owners shall be responsible for maintaining the legibility
of the warning labels.
Do not allow children to wear open toe or heel footwear
like sandals, flip–flops or clogs.
Do not allow children to walk, in front, between, behind
or close to moving rides.
Do not let children twist swing chains or ropes or loop
them over the top support bar. This may reduce the
strength of the chain or rope and cause premature failure.
Do not let children get off rides while they are in motion.
Do not permit climbing on equipment when it is wet.
Do not permit rough play or use of equipment in a
manner for which it was not intended. Standing on or
jumping from the roof, elevated platforms, swings,
climbers, ladders or slide can be dangerous.
Do not allow children to swing empty rides or seats.
Do not allow children to go down slide head first or
run up slide.
