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 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, then
click on “Warranty” and follow the instructions.
We appreciate your purchase and know that you will enjoy your Play Zee Bo for many
years to come.

Thank you for choosing Gorilla Playsets®
We’ve included everything you need, except tools, to build your very own professional
looking play set. When complete, your new play set should far exceed the quality of
play set kits from other build-your-own companies. Our engineers and design team
have over 30 years of playground experience. What we’ve developed is a play set that
doesn’t compromise quality for simplicity. Yet you’ll appreciate how quick and easy
construction really is! Our play set kits are designed for children ages 3 to 11. Gorilla
Playsets® believes every child should have a play set and with our kits they can! You
can rest assured your new play set is safe, durable and designed to hold up to the
elements. As parents ourselves, we know how important the security and well-being of
our children is, and this shows in all of our products.
This play set features our step-by-step 3D illustrated manual, plus all the required
hardware and pre-milled lumber.
Quality Lumber
At Gorilla Playsets, we use only the nest, hand selected lumber available. You can be
assured that our lumber is strong, durable, and conforms to the national standards for
use in children’s play equipment. It’s this quality that allows us to offer a 1 year warranty
on the lumber used in this product.
Important Safety Guidelines
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 the building and/or playing on our play sets. Adult supervision is
recommended anytime a play set is being used.

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.
• On-site adult supervision is required.
• Make sure Tarp is secured at all times to wooden frame.
• Seams on Tarp or Sandbox Cover should be inspected occasionally for any loose
strings which may pose a hazard.
• Remove the Sandbox Cover COMPLETELY from the sandbox before use and store
away from children.
• Do not use Sandbox Cover or Tarp for any purpose other than the original design.
• Maintain Sandbox Cover and Tarp to avoid hazardous conditions. If Sandbox
Cover or Tarp becomes damaged, repair immediately or contact Gorilla to purchase a
replacement.
• Keep Sandbox covered when not in use to avoid contamination from animals.
• Keep pets out of the sandbox.
• Inspect your Play Zee Bo regularly. Any part that has become loose or worn should be
tightened or replaced to prevent possible safety hazards.
• Retighten all screws and fasteners at the beginning of each season.
• For safety, inspect your sandbox for wood damage and remove any sharp edges.
• Keep Top Finial in place for safety.
• A removed or partially detached Sandbox Cover or Tarp could pose a suffocation
or choking hazard for your child. Make sure the Sandbox Cover is stored away from
children and that the Tarp is securely in place during play time.
• NEVER leave small children unattended.
• This play set is NOT recommended for children under 3 years of age.
• Teach children not to rock or tip sandbox.
• Parents should have their children dress appropriately with well-tting shoes.
Inappropriate footwear includes, clogs, ip ops and sandals. 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 attach items to the Play Zee Bo 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.
• Children should remove their bike or sports helmet before using the Play Zee Bo.
WARNING: Children must NOT use this play set until unit has been
completely assembled and inspected by an adult to insure set has
been properly installed and anchored.

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 components.
• Check all hardware frequently during the usage season and tighten as required.
(But not so tight that you crack the wood) It is particularly important that this procedure
be followed at the beginning of each season.
• 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 play set will slowly dig its way into the soil, and it is very important
that it settles evenly. Make sure the play set is level and true once each year or at the
beginning of each play season.
• Rake the play sand surface periodically to prevent compaction and maintain
appropriate depths. Add more sand as required.
• Disposal Instructions: When the play set is no longer desired, it should be
disassembled and disposed of in such away that no unreasonable hazards will exist at
the time the unit is discarded.

Play Set Surfacing Recommendations:
Below are some of the recommendations that the U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission (CPSC) offers from its Handbook for Public Playground Safety. The guide
can be downloaded in full at www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/pubs/325.pdf
1. Protective Surfacing - Since almost 60% of all injuries are caused by falls to the
ground, protective surfacing under and around all playground equipment is the most
critical safety factor on playgrounds.
Certain manufactured synthetic surfaces also are acceptable; however, test data on
shock absorbing performance should be requested from the manufacturer.
Asphalt and concrete are unacceptable. They do not have any shock absorbing
properties. Similarly, grass and turf should not be used. Their ability to absorb shock
during a fall can be reduced considerably through wear and environmental conditions.
Certain loose-ll surfacing materials are acceptable. Surfacing materials are acceptable,
such as the types and depths shown in the table.
Fall Heights and Materials
Material Uncompressed Depth Compressed
Depth
6” (152mm) 9” (228mm) 12” (304mm)
Wood Chips 7’ (2.13m) 10’ (3.05m) 11’ (3.35m) 10’ (3.05m)
Double-Shredded bark
mulch
6’ (1.83m) 10’ (3.05m) 11’ (3.35m) 7’ (2.13m)
Engineered Wood Fibers 6’ (1.83m) 7’ (2.13m) >12’(3.66m) 6’ (1.83m)
Fine Sand 5’ (1.52m) 5’ (1.52m) 9’ (2.74m) 5’ (1.52m)
Coarse Sand 5’ (1.52m) 5’ (1.52m) 6’ (1.83m) 4’ (1.22m)
Fine Gravel 5’ (1.52m) 5’ (1.52m) 9’ (2.74m) 5’ (1.52m)
Medium Gravel 5’ (1.52m) 5’ (1.52m) 6’ (1.83m) 5’ (1.52m)
Shredded Tires* 10-12’
(3.0-3.6m)
N/A N/A N/A
*This data is from tests conducted by independent testing laboratories on a 6-inch depth of uncompressed shredded tire samples
produced by four manufacturers. The tests reported critical heights, which varied from 10 feet to greater than 12 feet. It is
recommended that persons seeking to install shredded tires as a protective surface request test data from the supplier showing the
critical height of the material when it was tested in accordance with ASTM F1292.
It should be recognized that all injuries due to falls cannot be prevented no matter what
surfacing material is used.

Page 9
®
2. Fall Zones - A fall zone, covered with a protective surfacing material, is essential
under and around equipment where a child might fall. This area should be free of other
equipment and obstacles onto which a child might fall. Stationary climbing equipment
and slides should have a fall zone extending a Minimum of 6’ in all directions from the
perimeter of the equipment.
Leveling Your Play Zee Bo During Assembly
• Complete the steps which will be the basic frame of the fort {i.e. six sides with roof
supports This is up to Step 7.}
• Position the play set in the most level area possible.
• Once the frame is in the nal position, check for vertical and horizontal levelness to
determine which side(s) will need to be dug into the ground to level the play set.
• With a shovel, score the ground around the outside edges of the Bottom Panel Boards
on the ‘high’ side of the fort. This is the area that will be dug in. Make sure to score deep
enough; the scored lines will be your digging template.
• With an assistant lift the frame off and away from the scored area, far enough to dig
and remove dirt to reach the appropriate depth.
• Dig a channel along the scored line(s) for the base of the Play Zee Bo sides to rest
into. Dig the channel(s) to the same level depth. The bottom of the channel(s) should
be level to each other so your frame doesn’t teeter or rock because the channel(s) are
uneven.
• Once you have removed enough grass and dirt, you and your assistant should lift
the frame into the channel(s). Place a level on the vertical and horizontal boards of the
frame to determine if enough soil, or too much, was removed.
• Repeat this process until the basic frame is plumb and level and in its nal position
before completing the rest of the assembly.
• Measure to make sure Play Zee Bo is square.
• Line the inside of the Play Zee Bo with a weed blocker type material to assist with the
elimination of weeds. Weed blocker material is not provided with the Play Zee Bo but
may be purchase separately at home centers.
Important: if you require a channel depth of more than 6”, then we
recommend you have your play set area professionally graded before
completing assembly.

General Info to Review Before Installation
• Depending on your experience, assembly of the Play Zee Bo can take as little as 1
hour up to 3 hours, depending on your prior construction experience.
• Identify all of the parts for your play set. Empty the box and lay out boards so you can
see each part. Your instruction book will have detailed drawings that will make it easy
for you to recognize individual parts. Keep all hardware and metal parts separate from
wooden pieces.
• After everything is laid out, check carefully to ensure all parts are present. Make sure
there are no broken boards.
• Find an area to sort your hardware. It is best to open the hardware on a solid surface
so that you do not lose any pieces in the grass. This will save time and familiarize you
with all the different pieces in the hardware bag.
• Important note: Wood has some natural defects such as knots, surface cracks, etc…
We reject parts that are structurally defective. We use a high quality lumber in our
structures; however, you should inspect each part for splinters or rough spots and sand
them smooth to prevent injury.
• After familiarizing yourself with all of the components, read all instructions thoroughly.
Reading instructions after you have studied the parts will help you understand more
clearly the installation process, and help to eliminate unnecessary mistakes.
• Pay close attention to the diameter and length of each bolt and screw.
• Never tighten hardware completely at rst. It helps to have some adjustment for bolt
alignment while you are attaching parts together. After everything is square, tighten
each joint.
• After the frame is assembled it is critical that the base is level and square. If the base
is not level, the walls will be out of square.
• After you complete installation, make sure every bolt, screw, and nut is tight, and every
board is secure. Wood will expand and contract with the seasons.
• Check all bolt connections every two weeks during the usage season.
• Place the Play Zee Bo on level ground, not less than 6ft from any structure or
obstruction such as a fence, garage, house, overhanging branches, laundry lines, or
electrical wires.
