IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
This play ground equipment is built for optimum safety. However, certain precautions apply
whenever you operate a piece of play ground equipment. Be sure to read the entire manual before
you assemble or operate your equipment. In particular, note the following safety precautions to
reduce the likelihood of serious or fatal injury.
1. Children must be supervised at all times and never left unattended with the unit.
2. Do not install the equipment over concrete, asphalt, packed earth, wood floor, or any other hard
surface. A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury to the user.
3. Make sure the surfaces, either indoors or outdoors, are free of objects that may cause tipping
over.
4. Place the equipment on level surface, not less than 6 ft (1.8 m) from any structure or obstruction
such as fence, garage, house, overhanging branches, laundry lines, or electrical wires.
5. Make sure bystanders are at least 5 feet away from the equipment while it is in motion. No one
should be allowed to walk close to, in front of, behind, or between moving items.
6. Keeps hands and feet away from the pivot area.
7. Do not get off seat while it is in motion.
8. Do not stand on the teeter-totter. This could cause damage and result in injury.
9. Do not bounce with an empty seat.
10.Children should not wear loose clothing.
11.This teeter totter is intended for use by children from ages 2 to 8 with adult supervision.
12.Maximum weight capacity 70 lbs.
13.Only one person should be using the equipment at a time.
14.Impact-absorbing material must be placed around the bouncing teeter totter. Please refer to the
PLAYGROUND SURFACING MATERIALS in page 3.
15.Maximum fall height: 52 inches.
16.To prevent serious injury, children must NOT use the equipment until properly installed.
17.To prevent serious injury, parents must make warnings to children not to use this equipment in a
manner other than intended.
18.To prevent serious injury, parents must make warnings to children not to attach items to the
equipment that are not specifically designed for use with the equipment.
19.Lock the Bouncing Teeter Totter by moving the spring resistance all the way out when
not in use. This prevents small children from bouncing.
20.This Teeter Totter is for Home Use only.
21.Read ADJUSTMENTS FOR USING in this manual before making any adjustments.

CONSUMER INFORMATION SHEET FOR
PLAYGROUND SURFACING MATERIALS
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates that about 100,000 playground equipment-
related injuries resulting from falls to the ground surface are treated annually in U.S. hospital emergency rooms. Injuries
involving this hazard pattern tend to be among the most serious of all playground injuries, and have the potential to be
fatal, particularly when the injury is to the head. The surface under and around playground equipment can be a major
factor in determining the injury-causing potential of a fall. It is self evident that a fall onto a shock absorbing surface is less
likely to cause a serious injury than a fall onto a hard surface. Playground equipment should never be placed on hard
surfaces such as concrete or asphalt and while grass may appear to be acceptable it may quickly turn to hard packed
earth in areas of high traffic. Shredded bark mulch, wood chips, fine sand or fine gravel are considered to be acceptable
shock absorbing surfaces when installed and maintained at a sufficient depth under and around playground equipment.
The following table lists the maximum height from which a child would not be expected to sustain a life-threatening
head injury in a fall onto four different loose-fill surfacing materials if they are installed and maintained at depths of 6, 9,
and 12 inches. However, it should be recognized that all injuries due to falls cannot be prevented no matter what surfacing
material is used.
FALL HEIGHT IN FEET FROM WHICH A LIFE THREATENING HEAD INJURY
WOULD NOT BE EXPECTED
TYPE OF MATERIAL 6-INCH DEPTH 9-INCH DEPTH 12-INCH DEPTH
Double Shredded Bark
Mulch 6 10 11
Wood Chips . . 6 7 12
Fine Sand 5 5 9
Fine Gravel 6 7 10
It is recommended that a shock absorbing material should extend a minimum of 6 feet in all directions from the
perimeter of stationary equipment such as climbers and slides. However, because children may deliberately jump from a
moving swing, the shock absorbing material should extend in the front and rear of a swing a minimum distance of 2 times
the height of the pivot point measured from a point directly beneath the pivot on the supporting structure.
This information is intended to assist in comparing the relative shock-absorbing properties of various material. No
particular material is recommended over another. However, every material is only effective when properly maintained.
Materials should be checked periodically and replenished to maintain correct depth as determined necessary for your
equipment. The choice of a material depends on the type and height of the playground equipment, the availability of the
material in your area, and its cost.

Affairs, U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Washington, D.C., 20207 or call the toll-free hot line: 1-800-638-2772.
