Component Playgrounds MT32-10 User manual

Dear Customer:
Thank you for purchasing your equipment from Component Playgrounds!!! We are proud of our
commercial grade products made for kids of all ages & sizes, and we are confident that you will enjoy
your equipment for many years.
Because you have purchased a top of the line commercial grade product, you will need to be
aware of some specific shipping requirements that may be different from shipments you have received in
the past through other delivery companies (such as UPS), and you should follow the guidelines below
carefully.
1. In most cases your product will arrive via common carrier truck line directly to your home with
curbside delivery only. This means the driver will facilitate the offloading of the shipment at the curb, or
most reasonable place near the curb and your house. You are then responsible to have someone
physically capable to help unload the product upon delivery and note the condition of the product
as per below instructions.
2. Your product may arrive on a pallet and upon delivery—locate the packing list (usually
attached to the hardware box & orange & black in color) and verify that each piece listed is with the
shipment. *** Please disregard any delivery driver stated “time crunches” or “needs to leave
quickly” and inspect the product to your satisfaction = this is your product so make sure it is all
there in good condition or noted properly before the driver leaves.***
3. If there are any parts/pieces missing, note this directly on the delivery receipt BEFORE you
sign and receive your copy of the receipt, with wording such as “missing xyz part” etc. Note: some
shipments will have more than one pallet so check both before noting missing.
4. Similar to #3 above, also note the condition of the pieces and if any parts have been damaged
in shipping note this directly on the delivery receipt BEFORE you sign and get your copy from the driver
(in particular inspect slides for damage).
5. If your shipment appears to have damage and /or missing pieces, a freight claim must be fi led
with the freight company w/in two business days. Component Playgrounds will assist you with this
process if it is necessary. Contact the shipping manager toll free @ 877-530-0222 for claims assistance.
6. Ask your driver to sign or initial the freight slip acknowledging any damage or discrepancies.
7. Get a copy of the signed delivery receipt from your delivery driver BEFORE he leaves.
8. If you are concerned or don’t know what you should do with a certain situation regarding the
shipment, please call the shipping manager toll free @ 877-530-0222 before the driver leaves.
All shortages and damaged items are the sole responsibility of the carrier. You are responsible to
notify Component Playgrounds of any shortages or damage relating to your shipment w/in 2 business
days of receipt of your equipment. After this time, any claim for shortage or loss cannot be honored.
Component Playgrounds cannot be responsible for replacement of any parts, missing or
damaged, that have not been properly noted on the delivery receipt. Component Playgrounds
cannot be responsible for damaged or missing pieces due to the fault of, or loss by the freight
company.
Thanks again & remember to tell your friends about your product from Component Playgrounds!

Digging Bar or Pick Ratchet Handle & Sockets: 5/8”, 9/16”, ¾”, 17mm
Allen Wrench (Provided) Marker Pen
Ladder Tape Measure
Level Cordless /Electric Drill w/ Following Bits: Phillips, 3/8”
PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE BEGINNING
*Before digging, please obey local laws by notifying your local utilities marking
organization*
1. Select an area in your yard that is reasonably level and meets the space requirement
for your equipment. Ground Space: 19’ x 15’. Play Space: 23’ x 26’.
2. Please refer to the top rail assembly sheet and assemble your top rail as instructed.
3. Position the top rail (see top rail assembly page) about 12’ from the selected spot
where you want the unit to finally stand. Using a tape measure and marker, mark
location of the swing hangers and the ladder along the top rail. (see top view on
assembly and installation instructions for measurements.)
4. Assemble swing hangers (see swing hanger assembly sheet) and attach securely to
the top rail. Hint: Only attach the three swing hangers that will be on the inside of
the ladder and the A frame legs.
5. Using the hammer, install the plug into the open end of the top rail.
6. Locate position in your yard where the upright ladder will stand. Dig the hole for the
ladder (see Installation Instructions page #1). Lay the ladder onto the ground with
the bottom of the ladder laying just over the hole where it will finally stand. Hint: Be
sure to situate the ladder so that when the unit is finally standing the rungs and the
third leg bolt will be facing as desired in your space.
7. Turn the top rail onto its side on the ground. Slide the top rail into the sleeve at the
top of the ladder and position it to the marks previously made. (see Installation
Instructions page #3). Loosely install set screws into the top of the ladder sleeve.
Bolt “A” frame legs into place (see installation instructions page #2).
8. Using two strong adults, stand the swing frame up, allowing the ladder to fall into
the hole previously dug. (Note: set will not be level at this point.) At this point,
check to make sure that the top rail is still in its proper place inside the ladder top
sleeve. Adjust as necessary by holding onto the ladder securely and pushing or
pulling the “A” frame section causing the top rail to slide inside the top sleeve. When

you are satisfied that the top rail is in the proper position, securely tighten the set
screws in the top sleeve of the ladder.
9. With the ladder still standing in its hole, situate the “A” frame end to the desired
position in the play area. Determine location of the “A” frame legs and mark the
holes. Move the legs out of the way and dig the holes. (Keep most of the hole to the
inside of the leg). Place the legs into the holes.
10. Measure from about the middle of the top rail to the ground. This measurement
should be 10’. Determine the level of the swing set by using the level along the
length of the top rail. Remove from, or add soil to the holes as necessary to put the
unit to the correct height and to make it level.
11. Slide 3rd leg sleeve onto the top rail that is sleeved into the outside of the 10’
ladder.
12. Measure 5 ½’ - 6’ away from the 10’ Upright Ladder to mark and dig the hole for
the Third Leg (see #1B hole sizes for cementing).
13. Before installing the third leg, locate the third leg. Insert ⅜” x 3½” Hex Bolt and
loosely thread ⅜” Nut into the bottom hole. Nut will not thread all the way on and
bolt will be loose. (This is to act as an anchor in the concrete and does not need to
be tight.)
14. Install Third Leg by dropping the end into the hole and sleeving the top into the 3rd
leg sleeve. Use the 3/8” x 2 3/4” hex bolt and 3/8” nyloc nut. Then secure 3rd leg
with set screw on under side. (see diagram #4) When properly positioned, secure
the set screws in the top of the 3rd leg sleeve.
15. Mix concrete according to package directions and pour into the holes. (See
installation instructions page #1.) You will use approximately 6-7 80 pound bags in
the ladder hole and 1 ½ bags in each of the leg holes.
16. Allow the concrete to cure completely before you use your swing set (3-5 days).
17. Attach chains and swing seats and enjoy your Component Playground.

Read Before Use
Congratulations! You have just purchased one of the finest pieces of playground equipment available.
Your family will enjoy many hours of fun with this fine equipment. Playground equipment can be most
enjoyable, but there are some dangers if not used properly. You should be aware of the following:
Equipment should be installed in a level area, free from obstructions, with enough space to allow for
adequate clearance in all directions when equipment is in maximum use.
Keep objects away from equipment that could interfere with persons using it or that could be hazardous.
Misuse or abuse of this playground equipment is dangerous and can cause serious injury.
This equipment should be inspected before each use and any worn, defective or missing parts should be
replaced.
Children should play on equipment only with adult supervision and should be duly warned of the
potential hazards in this type of equipment when used improperly. Children should be instructed as to
proper caution to take in its use.
Equipment should NOT be used when it is wet or icy.
Equipment should only be used in a well-lighted area.
Do NOT use equipment when tired, under stress or emotionally upset.
Do NOT overcrowd.
Do NOT use equipment when under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Do NOT attempt somersaults or gymnastic stunts on or using this equipment.
Know your own limitations and exercise caution at all times.
Do not jump off of equipment when dismounting. It is a dangerous practice to jump on or off equipment.
Do not attempt to use equipment for something other than the use for which it was designed and intended,
or in a manner other than that for which it was designed and intended.
While every attempt is made by Component Playgrounds to ensure the highest degree of
safety in all of our equipment, we cannot guarantee freedom from injury. The user
assumes all risk of injury due to use. All merchandise is sold on this condition, which no
representative of the company can waive or change.

Maintenance of your playground
We hope that you and your family will enjoy many of hours of great family fun while using your
Component Playgrounds Products. We appreciate your business. Our goal is to provide safe,
durable and fun products using the best materials available. Your product should be mostly
maintenance free. However, you should consider the following suggestions with regard to the up
keep of your new swing set.
1. Chains and Connectors: The chains are coated with the highest quality bright zinc
coating and the highest quality polymer coatings available. However, over time the zinc
coating may become discolored or eventually have surface rust appear. The polymer
coating may also become discolored with time and may eventually crack. This depends
mostly upon environmental conditions and normally will not affect the durability and
safety of the product. However, these items should be inspected regularly for excessive
wear and should be replaced as necessary.
2. Swing Hangers: These items are coated with a high quality galvanizing. However,
swing hangers may become discolored or may eventually rust. Should this happen, a
touch up using a cold galvanizing compound followed by a coat of silver aluminum spray
paint will make them look new again. These items can be purchased in aerosol cans
(“spray paint”) at most hardware stores and at Component Playgrounds. The brass
bushings inside of the swing hanger are impregnated with lubricant and will not generally
require any further lubrication. However, these should be periodically inspected for wear
and replaced as necessary. Note: Twisting the chains while swinging will put extra wear
on the swing hanger parts. If your children enjoy this practice, please inspect the swing
hangers more frequently.
3. Tire Swing Knuckles (for sets with a tire swing): The tire swing knuckle arrives at
Component Playgrounds pre-lubricated from the manufacturer. However, it is good
practice to inspect the knuckle and be sure that there is adequate lubrication before it is
used the first time. After that, the tire knuckles should be lubricated at least twice
annually to prevent excessive wear and the eventual failure of the tire swing knuckle.
4. Welds: The heat from the welding process will damage the galvanizing that is on the
pipe when it arrives to us from the manufacturer. This damage to the galvanizing is
restricted to the actual weld. When your equipment is built, Component Playgrounds will
repair this damage using a cold galvanizing compound spray along with a top coat of
silver aluminum. This is a time tested and durable process. However, when you are
inspecting your playground equipment, if you notice that some surface rust has
appeared on the welds, simply apply a fresh coat of the cold galvanizing compound and
the silver aluminum top coat to keep your structure looking new. (These spray products

can be purchased in aerosol cans (“spray paint”) at most hardware stores and at
Component Playgrounds.)
5. Plastic Lumber Platforms: If you have purchased a structure which includes a
platform, the plastic lumber does not need to be finished or stained. It is 100%
maintenance free. However, you may need to occasionally hose it down to remove dirt
and other debris that may collect after many hours of use by happy children.
6. Vinyl Canopies: If you have purchased a structure which includes a vinyl canopy, this
product should be inspected occasionally for wear and will need to be replaced as
necessary. Depending upon your environmental conditions, the normal life expectancy
of the vinyl canopy is 3 –5 years.
7. Swing Seats: These should be inspected at least twice annually and should be replaced
as necessary.
8. Slides: Slides should never be lifted at the bottom. Lifting the slide at the bottom will
almost always cause the slide to crack at the top where it has been attached to the
platform or bracket. Cracks and wear such as is caused by this practice are easily
identifiable and will not be covered under the product warranty.
Slides should be inspected at least annually to ensure that the sliding surface is in good
condition. Also inspect the side rails to be sure that the plastic has not been cut or
gouged in any manner which would present the risk of injury while sliding.
9. Fasteners: All fasteners should be periodically inspected to make certain that they are
tight and secure. Re-secure as necessary.

To Help Prevent Injuries from Falls & Other Hazards
1. Never attach, or allow children to attach the following items to your swing set: Ropes, jump
ropes, clotheslines, pet leashes or any similar type of item to your swing set. Any item such as
these may present a strangulation hazard.
2. Periodically inspect all nuts, bolts, set screws, clevis, and carabineer or “S” hooks. Make
certain that these are functionally safe and secure. If you have any doubt as to the safety and
security of any connector or fastener, replace it.
2a. You should periodically check the brass bushings in the swing hangers. Look for
excessive wear in the bushing and replace as necessary.
2b. If your playground has a tire swing: The tire swing knuckle should be lubricated
twice annually to prevent wear.
3. Never allow children to wear bicycle helmets when using playground equipment.
4. Remove drawstrings from hoodie’s and jackets. Remove attached mittens and gloves. These
can become entangled with the equipment and present the risk of strangulation or other
hazards.
5. Playground surfaces can become hot in the sun. Children should be required to wear shoes
and socks when using this or any playground equipment.
6. Check for and remove sharp points or edges in the playground equipment.
7. Remove tripping hazards from the playground area. Items such as exposed concrete
footings, tree stumps, rocks or any item that may be present in your space that a child could trip
over while playing should be removed.
8. Regularly check the play equipment and the surfacing surrounding it to be certain that both
are in good condition.
9. Parental Supervision is recommended. The best ingredient for a safe playground is good
parental supervision while the kids are using the equipment.
10. Remember to play safely, take turns, share with each other and have fun!
