Mounting
The play hut is delivered fully assembled and requires no
extra mounting.
Material
• Solid boards made of recycled plastics (PE) coloured
throughout (beige, green, brown)
• Stainless steel screws and nail plugs
• Virgin PE material
Maintenance
The play hut contains no moving parts. The plastic material
requires very little maintenance, that is cleaning with soa-
py water and a sponge or soft brush and rinsing with water
to remove dirt and soap. As the materials’ water absorpti-
on is less than 0.29%, it will not get stained by oil, grease
or other products. Moss and algae will not adhere easily
and can easily be removed. Cleaning with high-pressure
(max. 100 bar) is possible but not recommended and most-
ly even not necessary. Spray with a fan-shaped jet with
minimum 30 cm distance from the surface. Painting or stai-
ning is useless as the material does not need extra pro-
tection and moreover the paint will not stick to the plastic.

Installation
The installation needs to be done on a hard and even
surface. The equipment cannot be installed on a loose
surface such as a sandpit, wood chips, bark mulch), unless a
special bearing construction is installed (not standard).
Security Zone
An obstacle-free area of minimum 150 cm around the
equipment is required.
No fall absorption surface required
The equipment’s fall height is less than 60 cm. Therefore
it’s allowed to install it on a hard surface.
Anchoring or not?
According to the European standard, playground equipment
needs to be anchored. Anchoring of this specific equipment
is not required if installed on a school playground with
supervision. In case the playground is only used by the
school itself, the security risk due to not anchoring the
equipment is relatively small. If there is no anchoring we
definitely advise to mark the equipment’s position on the
playground in order to be able to place it back correctly
after temporary relocation, respecting the required 150 cm
obstacle-free area.
In case of anchoring:
• Determine the exact position of the play hut and mark it
on the hard surface, respecting the required security zone.
• Draw the outline of the play hut with chalk on the surface.
• Secure the 4 plastic blocks supplied, on the surface in
a way that the play hut just fits over these blocks. Each
block has 2 pre-drilled holes for 2 nail plugs supplied.
• Place the play hut over the blocks.
• Pre-drill the holes (4 mm drill bit) in order to secure the
play hut to the blocks with the stainless screws supplied.
Important advice
To drill the holes use a sharp drill and first put the plastic part of the plug in the hole. Then screw the metal nail into the
plug instead of hammering it. This way, you avoid damaging the head of the nail and unfixing will be easy.
