Choosing a Location to
Build your Eastern Jungle Gym
When selecting a your Eastern Jungle Gym location site keep in mind the child’s safety.
Here are some recommendations to help you create a safe play area.
1) The swing set should be located on fairly level ground. The stationary components such
as ladders, rock walls and slides are required to be a minimum of 6 feet from any
obstruction such as buildings, trees, rock wall, clotheslines, fences and overhead
branches. Any swinging equipment is also required to be a minimum distance twice the
height of the swing beam away from these obstructions or structures as well.
2) Do not locate Swing Set on asphalt, concrete, packed earth or other hard surfaces.
Now that you have located a safe area to build your Swing Set you are ready to begin.

Assembly Safety Guidelines
Maintenance Instructions
1) Keep all children away from assembly area. Power tools and other dangerous
equipment will be needed. Many parts are heavy and could seriously injure a child.
2) Your ready to start your assembly process. You will need at least two adults to
safely and easily assemble your Eastern Jungle Gym.
3) Wear safety glasses when drilling out wood to protect your eyes from flying
wood clips.
4) Make sure all lag bolts and nuts are tightened and secured completely.
5) After throughly reading all your information, and have located your swing set
site. Carefully unpack all your parts. NOTE: keep check list close by. Remember
that a little time familiarizing your self with the parts and instructions before you
begin will help you avoid mistakes and save time later.
Here are some maintenance tips that must be done to ensure safe play.
1) At the beginning of each play season look over swing set: check nut, bolts,
screws and tighten as needed. Look over all components such as swing seats,
slides, chains, ladders and wood components for deterioration or sharp edges and
replace if necessary.
2)Oil all metal components such as swing hangers and tire swing hangers.
3)Spot sand any areas that are checking or splintering and check for broken parts
and replace if necessary.
4) We recommend on a yearly basis, to coat your swing set with a sealant. You
should look over set to make sure it does not need spot sand first. This will help
preserve the natural beauty and characteristics of the wood. Be sure to use non
toxic sealants.
