User manual GP38
“Centipede”
( version 2015-01)
Latest version can always be found at www.govaplay.com
According to EN1176, this bed-bench is not considered as being a play equipment.
Therefore, a TÜV-certificate is not required.
Material
ŸSolid posts and planks made of recycled plastic (PE), coloured
throughout.
ŸStainless steel screws and nail plugs
ŸVirgin PE sheet, UV-resistant
Mounting
The pre-assembled parts of the GP38 Centipede just need to be
fixed together.
Maintenance
Maintenance of the recycled plastic material is very limited.
Cleaning with a soapy water and a sponge or soft brush. Rinse with
water to remove all dirt and soap. As the water absorption of the
material is less than 0,29%, it will not get stained by oil, grease and
other products. Besides, mosses and algae will have difficult to
adhere to the material and are very easy to remove.
Cleaning with high-pressure (max. 100 bar) is possible but is not
recommended and mostly not needed. If anyway, then spray with a
fan-shaped jet at minimum 30 cm from the plastic surface.
Painting or staining is useless as the paint will not stick attach to
the material.
Different configurations are possible with the 5 pre-assembled parts.

Installation
The GP38 is delivered in pre-assembled parts. Anchorage is not required when supervision is guaranteed at the school playground. This
equipment is not suited to be installed on a loose ground (e.g. sand, bark, woodchips, …).
Put the Centipede in the desired configuration. Use the screws, washers and cover caps to fix the parts together. The colored sheets are pre-
drilled, use a 6 mm wood drill bit to pre-drill the black legs (through the holes in the sheets).
No need for safety zone and safety surface
As the Centipede is being considered as furniture and not as a play equipment, a safety zone as well as a safety surfacing are not required.
Anchorage
ŸDrill a hole of 8 mm in the middle of each of the 7 lower boards
ŸPosition the Centipede on the desired place (surface should be flat and solid)
ŸMark the 7 holes on the hard surface
ŸDrill the 7 holes into the hard surface using a 8 mm stone drill bit
ŸPut the Centipede on its position and fix it to the ground using the nail plugs.
Important suggestion
To drill the holes in the ground, use a sharp drill and just put the plastic plug into the hole. It is better to screw the nail into the plug than to hammer. This
way, you don't damage the head of the nail and unfixing will be easy.
