Introduction

BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION OF YOUR

PLAYGROUND, PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS

THOROUGHLY.

SITE REQUIREMENTS:

The Playground system is designed to suit a level site. Should

there be any falls or slopes on the site; care should be taken to

accommodate the entry and exit points and to maintain the

correct height. There should not be more than 3” of drop in

grade per every 10’.

The site must be inspected for adverse conditions:

All sites must be checked for existing utilities such as

electricity, gas, water or any other underground hazards. 1-

800-DIG-RITE is the number to call to have the services

located.

1. Roots, rocks, or other natural obstacles that may pose as

a trip hazard.

2. Poor drainage areas.

3. Broken glass or foreign objects around building site.

MAINTENANCE:

As an owner, it is most important that you are aware of your

responsibility to insure safe use of your new equipment. It is

necessary to install equipment correctly according to the

installation instructions provided and inspect the equipment at

regular intervals. During inspection, if any part is found

damaged or excessively worn, equipment should immediately

be put out of service while the part is replaced. Lack of

maintenance will result in premature wear, reduced life

expectancy, and possible failure that might result in injury.

All SportsPlay Equipment play events have been engineered to

meet all applicable safety guidelines, but if installed

improperly, these problems may occur:

•Entrapment gaps (between 3 1/2” and 9”}

•String Entanglements

•Protrusions

Make sure that any bolt end that protrudes more than 2 threads

past the face of the nut is trimmed and deburred smoothly.

Always double-check your work.

Installation must adhere to the manufacturers assembly manual

and all other applicable safety guidelines.

PLAY AREA:

The area immediately above and around the play structure must

be free of any obstructions such as:

•Trees

•Other Play Equipment

•Buildings

•Overhead Power lines

Make sure the play area has all the required safety

surfacing and the minimum fall zones as required by the

safety guidelines. These guidelines can be found at

www.cpsc.gov.

CHILDREN MUST BE SUPERVISED AT ALL TIMES.

No playground is safe without adult supervision!

Quick Guide

SITE – Make sure the area of installation is relatively level,

free of obstacles and underground utilities. If a slope exists,

care must be taken to accommodate entry and exit areas to

insure they maintain the correct heights. Call 1-800-DIG-RITE

to have a technician check the area for underground utilities.

This service is free.

MATERIAL INVENTORY– Locate your Component

Checklist and the 2d top down drawing included in the

instructions. Use both to identify, inventory and best position

the parts around the perimeter of the area. If you find damaged

or parts missing, contact your SportsPlay Distributor

immediately.

INSTRUCTIONS – Thoroughly read the instruction booklet

BEFORE beginning the installation. Pay special attention to

the pages describing post and deck installation. These are the

‘bones’ of your playground. If they are not properly installed,

the remaining events will not install correctly. KEEP THESE

INSTRUCTIONS ON FILE.

TOOLS – Locate the Tools Checklist in the instructions.

Make sure all necessary tools are available at installation time.

If you are using volunteers, send a note to them that includes

the tool list. You may be able to borrow most items instead of

renting.

SUPPLIES – Set your installation date and order supplies

from your local building center. You will need some flat

concrete stones for blocking holes, some scrap lumber for

bracing and cement. You can figure about 2 80# concrete bags

per hole.

DECK LAYOUT –Find the grid drawing in the instruction

booklet. Decide which way to orient the structure. ALL fall

zone measurements MUST be accommodated. Locate the

lowest deck on the drawing. You can start laying out the

structure by placing the lowest deck on the ground and then

double check your measurements. Measure twice, install once!

Consult the instruction booklet for post and deck installation

instructions.

BRACING– As the decks and kick plates are installed, be

sure to level the posts and place braces in the holes to keep

them from shifting. Periodically, plumb and level all posts as

you work your way around the playground.

COMPONENT INSTALLATION – Consult the instruction

booklet for separate installation instructions for each

component on your playground. Begin installing from the

lowest deck in a clockwise rotation around the structure back

around to the starting deck. Tighten panels as you go, making

sure to plumb and level posts.

VISUAL INSPECTION – After all components are installed

and tight, do a visual inspection to ensure the panels and posts

are level, in the proper place, and look good with respect to one

another. Once satisfied, you are ready for concrete.

Page 8

CONCRETE – Mix the concrete according to the directions.

DO NOT mix directly in the hole. Fill each hole to within 2

inches of the original surface. Crown for drainage, and cure 48

hours.

SECURE AREA – Fence off or lock area to insure that NO

ONE can play on the playground until it is completely finished.

You may consider contacting local law enforcement to inform

them of the new installation and ask them to check the area

frequently during the night.

BACKFILL AND CLEANUP – 48 hours after pouring

cement, backfill all of the holes with dirt to the original ground

level and make sure the area is free of any tools, hardware, or

sharp objects.

SURFACING– Use the chart on page 8 to decide how much

safety surfacing is required. Before spreading loose fill

surfacing, be sure to install a weed barrier outside the fall zone

dimension, then spread the safety surfacing.

LAST THING– Make one more tour around the playground

and physically make sure all hardware is tight.

OPEN FOR PLAY– After the safety surfacing is installed and the

hardware has been checked for tightness, your playground is ready for

play.

MAINTENANCE -Consult your instruction booklet for the

maintenance checklist. Schedule and complete periodic

maintenance checks of the entire playground. If any hardware

is worn, or any item missing or broken, close the playground

and contact your SportsPlay distributor for replacement parts.

Check resilient surfacing depths, move or add additional

surfacing if necessary. Make sure the playground area remains

free of obstacles, broken glass or other sharp objects.

Safety Surfacing/Fall Heights

You must consider the type of safety surfacing you will use

before beginning the installation process. There are two

general types, organic/loose fill or synthetic unitary. Both

materials have advantages and disadvantages and it is likely

that your client’s budget will dictate the material of choice.

Always have all options available as product quality and long-

term performance may cause your client to reevaluate their

original budget.

When installing a unitary safety surfacing material such as

rubber mats or poured-in-place, you will need to pour a

concrete slab so that the rubber material can be secured. This

type of product cannot be placed on dirt.

If a loose fill surface such as wood chips is selected, you will

need to consider containment borders. There are many

products to choose from including hard plastic and natural

products such as wood. Creosoted railroad ties are NOT

recommended. Loose fill materials like wood chips are easily

displaced, so 12” deep is generally satisfactory. Also

remember that loose fill will compress with repeated use.

Weed mat: Some use a landscaping fabric material that allows

drainage but prevents weed growth. Weed mats are installed

after the structure is installed but before the resilient surfacing

is installed.

Borders: Building borders above ground, below grade, or on

grade depends upon the area in which you live. Assuming you

must use 12” of resilient surfacing, there are three basic types

of installation:

1. 12” below existing grade

2. 6” below and 6” above existing grade

3. 12” above existing grade

The tallest deck on the unit generally defines the maximum fall

height of a structure. If upper body equipment (horizontal

ladder) is attached, the fall height is then the distance from the

highest part of the equipment to the protective surfacing. Refer

to the Top Down View to determine the maximum fall height.

Since the structure will be installed at dirt grade, the height of

the resilient surfacing must be determined and factored into the

height of installation of decks. For example, if the resilient

surfacing will be 12” deep, a 3’ deck height will actually install

at 4’. When the structure is completed and the surfacing is

installed, the deck then will be 3’ above the level of the

resilient surfacing.

Safety Surfacing Chart

Table –Critical heights (in feet) of Tested Materials

These directions are written based upon a depth of 12” of

resilient surfacing.

Do not forget to calculate the compressed resilient surfacing

depth needed and adjust your “dirt grade height” accordingly.
