Safety Maintenance – At the beginning of every season and twice monthly thereafter:
Rake and check depth of loose fill protective surfacing material to prevent compaction and maintain appropriate depth. Replace as
necessary.
Check all nuts, bolts and C-Links 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.)
To prevent the deterioration of materials, remove plastic swing seats and other plastic accessories when outdoors temp dips down to
or below 32° F and take indoors.
Oil all metallic moving parts monthly during usage period.
Check all hardware and equipment for sharp edges during usage season. (Replace when necessary. It is especially
important to do this at the beginning of each new season.)
Check swing seats, chains, ropes and cables monthly during usage season for evidence of deterioration. Severe rusting or excessive wear,
especially near the top swing hanger or at the seat connection are evidence of chain deterioration. Cracks in the protective plastic sleeve
or seat itself are also signs of deterioration. If any of these conditions exist, call 1-800-888-1232 to order replacement accessories.
Sand rusted metal parts and repaint using non-lead based paint.
Check all wood members for deterioration and splinters. Sand down splinters and replace deteriorating wood members.

When the equipment is taken out of service, it must be disassembled and disposed of in such a way that no unreasonable hazards
will exist at the time the set is discarded.
