(a)
Safety area
The requirements for space and safety clearances are taken from
BS-EN 1176-1/ ASTM-F1487/ CSA Z614
The use zone for stationary play equipment shall extend no less than
72 in.(1830mm) from all sides of the play structure.
Fall Height : (a) 6' 3" / 1900mm (from surface)
The Fall height on the extennal surface of a pyramid shaped space net
is the hightest point attainable within a horizontal distance of (b) 44" /1100mm
from the edge of the structure where a free fall to the protective surface is possible.
This distance in based on the centre of gravity height of the maximum user.
Metric/Im erial
conversion:
1830mm = 6'
7000mm = 22' 11-5/8"
17660mm = 57' 11-1/4"

GS-W6002Tensioning & Maintenance information
Figure-24: com leted Net
Maintenance information
Please tighten rope with Turnbuckle properly.
If you strain the net too much it may cause damage.
It is also recommended that subsequent checks on tension should be carried out
at monthly intervals and adjusted as required.
This will increase the overall longevity of the product.
Checking: 1 month
Refer to IPEMA and TUV maintance system.
After Net structure tension is completed the net will
stretch slightly over the first four weeks of use.
Following this initial period the net needs
to be fully re-tensioned by Turnbuckle
after 1 year.
