SAFETY
• This product is intended for single-family residential use only, by children ages two to ten
and a maximum weight of 105 pounds. Any recommendation over 10 years of age or 105
pounds exceeds the upper limits specified in the American Society for Testing and Materials
(ASTM) Home Playground Safety Standard. In order for PlayStar to comply with the ASTM
Standard, we cannot recommend anyone above these limits.
• It is a misuse of this product when installed or used in places of public assembly such as
schools or parks.
• Construction requires at least two adults capable of heavy lifting.
• Thoroughly read all safety instructions before beginning.
• Children must remain clear of construction site until this product is properly installed and
ready for use.
• Save these instructions in the event the manufacturer has to be contacted.
The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) provides the
following consumer information for your Home Playground Equipment
Information on Playground Surfacing Materials:
The U. S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC)
estimates that about 100,000 playground equipmentrelated injuries resulting from falls to the ground surface
are treated annually in U. S. hospital emergency rooms.
Injuries involving this hazard pattern tend to be among
the most serious of all playground injuries, and have the
potential to be fatal, particularly when the injury is to the
head. The surface under and around playground equipment can be a major factor in determining the injurycausing potential of a fall. It is self evident that a fall onto
a shock-absorbing surface is less likely to cause a serious
injury than a fall onto a hard surface.
Playground equipment should never be placed on
hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt and while
grass may appear to be acceptable it may quickly turn to
hard packed earth in areas of high traffic. Shredded bark
mulch, wood chips, fine sand or fine gravel are considered
to be acceptable shock-absorbing surfaces when
installed and maintained at a sufficient depth under and
around playground equipment.
The table below lists the maximum height from which
a child would not be expected to sustain a life-threatening
head injury in a fall onto four different loose-fill surfacing
materials if they are installed and maintained at depths of
9 and 12 inches. However, it should be recognized that all
injuries due to falls cannot be prevented no matter what
surfacing material is used.
It is recommended that shock-absorbing material
should extend a minimum of six feet in all directions
from the perimeter of stationary equipment such as
climbers and slides. However, because children may
deliberately jump from a moving swing, the shockabsorbing material should extend in the front and rear of
a swing a minimum distance of two times the height of
the pivot point measured from a point directly beneath
the pivot on the supporting structure.
This information is intended to assist in comparing
the relative shock-absorbing properties of various materials. No particular material is recommended over another.
However, each material is only effective when properly
maintained. Materials should be checked periodically and
replenished to maintain correct depth as determined necessary for your equipment. The choice of a material depends
on the type and height of the playground equipment, the
availability of the material in your area, and its cost.
SHOCK-ABSORBING SURFACING MATERIAL CHART
PlayStar Playsets require fall-height protection from nine feet. This is the height from which a life-threatening
head injury would not be expected, provided proper materials and depths are used as indicated below:
When Using This Material:
Apply to this Depth*:
Double-Shredded Bark Mulch..................................9"
Wood Chips............................................................12"
Fine Sand ..............................................................12"
Fine Gravel ............................................................12"
*These depths were derived from the CPSC Handbook. PlayStar has not done independent tests to determine these required depths.

SAFETY

SAFETY
INSTALLATION:
1. Follow the instructions provided, do not alter its design
in any way.
2. Place the playset on level ground, not less than 6'
(1.8m) from any structure or obstruction such as
a fence, garage, house, overhanging branches,
laundry lines or electrical wires. If the area where
you will be installing your playset is not level, you
must make it level.
3. Do not install the playset over concrete, asphalt,
packed earth, grass, carpet or any other hard surface.
A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury to
the equipment user.
4. Playsets must be anchored to the ground. Follow the
anchoring instructions provided with your building kit.
If soil conditions permit anchors to be pulled out easily,
such as in sandy soil conditions, cementing is required.
5. Tighten all bolts securely to the intended member then
cut off all protruding threaded ends of bolts with a hack
saw flush to the end of the nut and remove sharp
edges with a metal file.
6. Once the playset is completely assembled and
before children are allowed to play on it, proper
shock-absorbing surfacing material must be installed.
OPERATION:
Observing and following statements and
warnings reduces the likelihood of serious or fatal injury.
1. On-site adult supervision is recommended for children
of all ages.
2. Only one child, for each single planned seat or single
planned activity should be allowed on this set at one
time, with a maximum weight of 105 pounds for each child.
3. WARNING: You must teach children the following:
A. Not to walk close to, in front of, behind, or
between moving items.
B. Not to twist swing chains or ropes or loop them
over the top support bar since this may reduce the
strength of the chain or rope.
C. Avoid swinging empty seats.
D. To Sit in the center of the swings with their full
weight on the seats.
E. Not to use the equipment in a manner other than
intended.
F. Not to get off equipment while it is in motion.
G. Not to climb when equipment is wet.
H. Not to attach items to the playground equipment
that are not specifically designed for use with the
equipment such as, but not limited to, jump ropes,
clothesline, pet leashes, cables and chain as they
may cause a strangulation hazard.
I. Remove helmets before using play equipment as
the helmet may become entrapped in an enclosed
opening and cause a strangulation hazard.
•
SAFETY
4. Verify that suspended climbing ropes are secured at
both ends and that they cannot be looped back on
themselves. (A rope that is not taut enough may cause
a strangulation hazard.)
5. Dress children appropriately. Provide well fitting shoes.
Avoid ponchos, scarves, and other loose-fitting clothing
which is potentially hazardous while using equipment.
6. Verify that all suspended swinging components have
at least 8" clearance between the lowest point of
component and top of shock-absorbing surfacing material.
WARNING: Lawn swings are designed for use by children
two years of age and older. Use by children under the age
of two can result in entrapment between the seat and
back area. NEVER place children in a rearward facing
position or with legs between the seat and backrest
because the child’s body may pass through the opening
causing entrapment of the child’s head.
MAINTENANCE:
1. Check all nuts and bolts, 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.
2. Remove plastic swing seats and take indoors, or do
not use when the temperature drops below 0˚ F.
3. Oil all metallic moving parts monthly during the usage
period.
4. Check all hardware and equipment for sharp edges
twice monthly during usage season and replace when
necessary. It is especially important to do this at
the beginning of each new season.
5. Check all ropes for signs of deterioration such as
loosening or fraying twice monthly during usage season
and tighten or replace when necessary. It is especially
important to do this at the beginning of each new season.
6. Check swing seats and chains monthly during usage
season. Replacement should be made if there is
evidence of deterioration.
7. If any of these conditions exist, call 1-888-752-9782 for
ordering information.
8. Clean plastic components with warm water and a mild
detergent such as dish soap.
DISPOSAL:
1. When the playset is to be retired from service,
disassemble and dispose of in such a way that no
unreasonable hazards will exist. Follow your local
disposal requirements.

CUTTING GUIDE Free-Standing Swing Station
Before starting to build your Playset, make
sure all boards are cut and identified by size.
Stack identical size boards in neat piles.
(If you do not want to mark on lumber, use masking tape or chalk.)
This will improve your building time greatly because you will already know
the size of each board as the instructions call for them.

ANCHORING
At locations shown screw Playset Anchors into
ground by hand (a long screwdriver will help).
Use the anchor as a drill guide and drill a ¹⁄₄" hole
2¹⁄₂" deep into the board. Attach with ³|₈" x 3" lag
screw and ³|₈" washer.
Note: If soil conditions permit anchors to be pulled out
easily, such as in sandy soil conditions, cementing
is required. If your ground is too hard to screw in the
anchors, or you are having trouble lining up anchor
with existing hole in tower, you can remove the earth
with a shovel. Install the anchors and compact the
earth as you replace it. Anchors must be placed below
the level of the shock-absorbing surfacing material to
prevent tripping or injury resulting from a fall.
Reminder: Be sure to install proper shock-absorbing
surfacing material. Refer to the Safety Guide at
the beginning of this plan.
ANCHORING - Climbing Rope
Tie five knots, equally spaced, for climbing
grips. (Fig. 1)
Insert rope through ³|₄" top hole in beam and
tie a knot with 4" remaining. Secure with
staples provided. (Fig. 2)
Free-Standing
