tray, or something similar, to prevent the frustration and disappointment of mislaying them. Please take care during
assembly as the manufacturing process can sometimes result in the occasional sharp edge and small pieces of waste
metalwork. Should there be any missing parts, the toy must not be used until replacement parts have been fitted - the
Customer Services line is +44 (0)1299 872804.
2. SITING
Under no circumstances should any of our toys be positioned on a hard surface, unless the ground under the toy plus the
recommended freespace area is covered with a safety surface (please refer to diagram on page 17). The toy should ideally be sited
with grass, sand or a recommended play surface covering the freespace area. A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury.
tp
toys should be sited on level ground away from the house, overhanging branches, laundry lines, electrical wires or any other similar
obstruction. Installing your playset on sloping ground can cause it to lean or 'rack.' This puts additional stress on all the connections and
joints and in time will cause them to fail. This is not covered by any guarantee.
3. USAGE
tp
toys are designed and made to be used by children aged between 12 months and 12 years, unless otherwise stated, and must not be
tp
used by anybody else.
4. SUPERVISION
Children should always be supervised while they are playing on
hazardous manner. Make sure they do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewellery that can catch or snag. Children should not wear cycle
helmets while playing on
5. PLAYING IN WET CONDITIONS
Many surfaces can become slippery in wet or icy conditions. Lips, tongues and wet skin can stick to metalwork in very cold weather.
Therefore, in these conditions children must not be allowed to use the toy. Extra caution and supervision is required when combining water
(eg. paddling pools, aqua slides, etc.) with outdoor play.
6. MAINTENANCE
With all toys it is vital that the equipment is checked regularly and often by an adult. The complete toy should be checked at least once a
month, and particular attention should be paid to the suspension system, ropes, and all fittings, bolts, nuts, and shackles, etc. If any parts
exhibit signs of wear and tear, they may need to be replaced. Failure to do this may result in the product malfunctioning and causing injury.
If a sharp edge or protruding bolt is found, saw and file it down until flush and smooth. Children must not be allowed to use the toy until
properly installed and checked.

it should be removed with either a wire brush or coarse sandpaper, and the area treated with a cold galvanising paint such as Galvafroid or
Polygalv. These are two well-known names, although other makes of paint are available from most hardware or DIY stores.
7. SWING FRAMES
These must always be used with the stakes provided. If the stakes do not give enough hold, we recommend that you concrete them in
place. Never set the legs of a swing frame in concrete.
8. SWINGING TOYS (Swing Seats, Trapeze Bars & Rings, etc.)
tp
swing frames and some climbing frames employ nylon bush bearings. Swing accessories should be fitted to these in accordance with
the original product instructions. When fitting swinging toys it is vital that moving parts have no metal to metal contact. Children should be
instructed not to pass in front of or behind moving items, not to twist or swing an empty swing seat, and not to get off a swinging toy when it
is in motion.
9. ROPES (Swings, Nets, Rope Ladders, etc.)
These ropes will degrade over time. This can be recognised by the rope becoming pale in colour and giving off a fine powder when
rubbed. When either of these signs appears, the toy should be withdrawn from use. Products where the rope is joined with aluminium
crimp will need to be completely replaced.
10. SLIDES
tp
slides are manufactured with a UV stabiliser which prolongs their life. Always check that the slide is not hot from the sun before allowing
children to play. If the slide is hot, pour cold water down the slide until it feels cool to touch. Check the slide several times during extended
play.
11. FIRE RISKS AND DISPOSAL
tp
Never allow
toys to be placed or used near a fire. When it becomes necessary to dispose of your equipment, remove all bolts and
disassemble. Store out of the reach of children until it can be properly disposed of.
These instructions are issued in the interest of child safety, and we do ask you to follow our advice.
