GORILLA PLAYSETS WARRANTY - 2013
Gorilla Playsets® (“Gorilla”) warrants its play sets to be free from defects in workmanship and materials, under
normal use and conditions, for 10 years for above ground structural wood components and for one year for all
other components (e.g., swings, hardware, plastics, tarps, rope ladder, etc.).
Gorilla warrants all remaining products, including but not limited to its Breckenridge Playhouse™, Free Standing
Swing Set, Free Standing Tire Swing, See-Saw, Children’s Picnic Table with Umbrella, Play-Zee-Bo™ and spring
riders to be free from defects in workmanship and materials, under normal use and conditions, for a period of 1
year. The Krazy Clubhouse is warranted for a period of 6 months.
Cosmetic imperfections and natural tendencies of wood such as peeling, splintering, warping, seasonal checking
or cracking, knots or knot holes, etc. are normal characteristics of all outdoor wooden play equipment and are
not covered by this warranty.
Wood rot or decay that develops because the product was installed in an area with poor drainage is not covered
under this warranty. Lumber that has been damaged by wood boring bees, or conditions that develop as a result of
faulty or improper installation of the product, are not covered by this warranty. Fading of stain, discoloration or
mold on any wood part or accessory is not covered by this warranty. Cracks in plastic components, surface rust on
hardware and chips on powder coated materials are not considered defects in material as long as they do not
affect the functionality or structural integrity of the part or component.
It is the owner’s responsibility to maintain the swing set. This includes but is not limited to re-staining and
resealing the lumber as needed and regular inspection to be sure all hardware is tight. Instructions for proper
maintenance can be found on Gorilla’s website. Imperfections or conditions that develop because of a failure to
properly maintain the swing set are not covered by this warranty.
Gorilla will repair or, at its discretion, replace any above ground part within the stated warranty period that is
defective in workmanship or materials. This decision is subject to verification of the defect, which, at Gorilla’s
discretion, may be accomplished by submitting photographs or by delivery of the defective part to Gorilla Playsets

STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A

warranty is non-transferable and does not extend to the owners of the product subsequent to the original
purchaser. Some states do not allow limitations on implied warranties or exclusion of incidental or consequential
damages, so these restrictions may not be applicable to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may
also have other rights which vary from state to state.

IMPORTANT SAFETY GUIDELINES
This product is recommended for use by children ages 3-11. This product is intended
for residential use only and not intended for use in any public setting. A safety surface
such as mulch or recycled tire should be used around the play set to prevent injury from
falls. Also a 6 foot safety zone should be used around the entire play set.
As with any home project, good judgment and respect for power tools will greatly
reduce the risk of injury. Gorilla recommends you follow all tool manufacturers’ safety
guidelines. Always wear eye protection and safety gloves to prevent injury. In several
phases of construction two people may be required for lifting and securing of lumber.
While the play set is being constructed, please keep children off the equipment until the
project is complete. Bolts and screw heads should be checked regularly for tightness.
Gorilla shall not be liable for incidental, indirect or consequential damages or
injuries that result from building and/or playing on our play sets. Adult supervision is
recommended anytime a play set is being used.
Gorilla recommends that the weight limits for all components must not be exceeded.
Failure to adhere to these and other safety guidelines could result in damage to the play
set and injury to the users.

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ
As fresh lumber acclimates to its new environment, the natural tendencies of the tree can show
itself in the form of checks, or “cracks” in the lumber. In almost all cases this is normal and it will
not affect the structural integrity of your play set.
Cosmetic defects that do not affect the structural integrity of the product, or natural defects of
wood such as warping, checking or any other physical properties of wood that do not present
a safety hazard, are not covered by this warranty. Defects that develop because the product is
exposed to extreme climate conditions or woodboring insects are not covered by this warranty.
Defects that develop as a result of faulty or improper installation of the product are also not
covered by this warranty.
Most cracks are not warrantable, however if you believe that the integrity of your play set is
compromised by this natural occurrence, please follow the warranty claim procedure found at
www.gorillaplaysets.com. Click on the “Customer Care” tab on the left hand side of the page,
then click on “Warranty Claim” and follow the directions.
KEEPING YOUR PLAYSET LIKE NEW
LUBRICATE:
• Spray moving metal parts with Pam, Mazola or olive oil to stop squeaking.
• Do not use petroleum based products such as WD-40 or motor oil.
TIGHTEN:
• Check and tighten bolts and screws within rst 60 days and then twice annually.
Tighten lag bolts or screws as required.
SEAL:
• Apply an oil based stain/sealer every year. You may need to carefully wash the unit before
applying the sealer.
INSECTS:
• To repel yellow jackets and wasps, using a cloth, coat all interior 90 degree corners with liquid
dish soap underneath the play set deck. This will make wasps sick when they attempt to build a
nest. Avoid using insecticides.

Safety and Maintenance Tips for Your New Play Set:
NOTE: Your children’s safety is our #1 concern. Observing the
following statements and warnings reduces the likelihood of serious
or fatal injury. Please review these safety rules regularly with your
children.
• This play set is designed for the use of 4 occupants who have a combined weight not
exceeding 300 pounds on the oor.
• On-site adult supervision is required.
• Teach children not to use the equipment in a manner other than intended.
• The parents should have the children dress appropriately with well-tting shoes. Loose
clothing such as scarves and ponchos should not be worn. Always take off, tie up or
tuck in cords and drawstrings on children’s clothing. These things can get caught on
playground equipment and strangle a child.
• Teach children not to climb when the equipment is wet.
• Teach children to never crawl on top of the clubhouse roof or porch roof.
• Teach children not to attach items to the playground equipment that are not specically
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.
• Teach children to remove their bike or other sports helmet before playing on the
playgound equipment.
• Teach children to NEVER look at the sun or other bright light through any accessory
such as but not limited to a telescope, periscope or binoculars.
• Teach children to never crawl through, sit upon or hang from the clubhouse windows.
• Teach children to never hang from or swing on the door.
• Teach children to never hang from or sit upon the ower box.
• Teach children to never hang from or sit upon the porch fences.
• Teach children to never put their ngers or any other body part in or near the door
jamb when shutting or opening the door.
WARNING: Children must NOT use this clubhouse until it has been
completely assembled and inspected by an adult to insure it has been
properly installed.

Safety and Maintenance Tips for Your New Play Set:
(continued)
Playgrounds should be inspected on a regular basis. If any of the following conditions are noted,
they should be removed, corrected, or repaired immediately to prevent injuries.
• Hardware that is loose, worn or that has protrusions or projections.
• Exposed equipment footings.
• Scattered debris, litter, rocks, or tree roots.
• Splinters, large cracks, and decayed wood components.
• Deterioration and corrosion on structural components, which connect to the ground.
• Missing or damaged equipment components, such as handholds or guard rails.
• Check all nuts and bolts twice monthly during the usage season and tighten as required.
(But not so tight that you crack the wood)
• Oil all metallic moving parts monthly during the usage period.
• For rusted areas on metallic members such as brackets, etc.; sand and repaint, using a non
lead-based paint meeting the requirements of Title 16 C.F.R. Part 1303. These requirements
are available at: http://www.cpsc.gov/
• Inspect wood parts monthly. The grain of the wood sometimes will lift in the dry season
causing splinters to appear. Light sanding may be necessary to maintain a safe playing
environment. If you are treating your play set with stain regularly, it will help prevent severe
checking/splitting and other weather damage.
• Once or twice a year, depending on your climate conditions, you must apply some type of
protection (sealant) to the wood of your unit. Prior to the application of sealant, lightly sand any
“rough” spots on your set. Please note this is a requirement of your warranty.
• Creating and maintaining the play set on a level location is very important. As your children
play, your clubhouse will slowly dig its way into the soil, and it is very important that it settles
evenly. Make sure the clubhouse is level and true once each year or at the beginning of each
play season.
• Twice a month during the usage season rake the playground protective surfacing materials to
prevent compaction and maintain appropriate depths. Replace the protective surfacing materials
as required.
• Disposal Instructions: When the clubhouse is no longer desired, it should be disassembled and
disposed of in such away that no unreasonable hazards will exist at the time the clubhouse is
discarded.
