Instructions for the professional inspection and maintenance of single point swings
oPlayground equipment is subject to a wide range of stresses and strains over the course of its
useful life, which can reduce or even eliminate the original safety. Regular inspection and
maintenance ensures that the required safety of playground equipment is maintained.
oThis maintenance manual contains all the instructions needed to perform the inspection tasks
and to comply with the inspection periods. It is assumed in this maintenance manual that the
playground equipment is installed in a normally frequented playground in normal surroundings. If
there are local factors that deviate from the normal, the inspection periods must be adjusted. This
may cause the time intervals specified by the manufacturer / distributor to be shortened. An ex-
tension of the time intervals is excluded as these are minimum requirements.
oAmong the local factors that require shortening of the inspection periods are, for example, loca-
tions with heavy use, e.g. schoolyards, kindergartens, amusement parks; location with high levels
of vandalism; locations near the coast; locations with air pollution; playground equipment increas-
ing age.
oFurthermore, this maintenance manual assumes that the described inspections and maintenance
work will be carried out by personnel with suitable qualifications. Certain tasks (such as welding)
can only be performed by qualified professionals or require machining by the manufacturer / dis-
tributor.
oThe owner / operator of the playground should set up a suitable inspection plan for the play-
ground and document the inspections and maintenance performed there for the particular play-
ground equipment.
One-time maintenance work
Four weeks after installation, all screw connections must be checked and tightened if necessary. In this
case, the specified advice in the regular maintenance work e. g. to turning moments has to be observed.
Regular maintenance
1. Routine visual inspection
1.1. 1x weekly (or different, determined by local factors)
Check the minimum space of the playground equipment for cleanliness.
Check playground equipment for consequences of vandalism, e. g. missing or damaged
components.
Check playground equipment for the effects of weather conditions, eg. B. by storm or frost
2. Operational inspection
2.1. 1x monthly (or different, determined by local factors)
Check for visibility of the warning groove (red-colored ring on the swivel housing). If the
ring is visible in a horizontal direction, there is a need for repair. See appendix "A1 Visual in-
spection of swivel at least once a month"
Testing for smoothness of running. Relieve the swing platform and the universal joint from
load. To check the swivel is slowly put into rotation by hand. If the swivel rotates without an-
gular offset (well visible on the swing chains), it is fine and smooth of running.
Check swing chains and connecting elements for wear, replace if necessary. Please note
that the cylinder screws in the chain adapters are fastened hand-tight with a long Allen key or
a ratchet with a socket wrench, without over-tightening the hexagon socket.
Check plastic parts such as protective edges, linings, sheathing, sleeves, etc. for loss,
signs of wear and damaged areas and replace if necessary.

Check the condition of the ground surface, if applicable, follow the instructions for the in-
spection and maintenance of shock-absorbing floors specified by the manufacturer / distribu-
tor of playground floors, especially with regard to the level of loose fill material.
Check the ground clearance of the swing platforms / seats.
2.2. every 3 months (or different, determined by local factors)
Check axles, hubs and bearings for smooth running, bearing shake, wear or corrosion.
Check for bearing play and wear. To check, the swing platform and the universal joint must
be relieved by lifting the platform (e.g. by 2nd person or trestles). The swivel housing is man-
ually set in motion to all directions. If wearout in excess of the intended swivel and rotary
movements is detected damage requiring repair is present.
2.3. every 6 months (or different, determined by local factors)
Check components for tight fit; check screw connections and tighten if necessary. The in-
structions given in the regular maintenance work, e.g. regarding torques, must be observed.
Replace lubrication as described in appendix "A2 Replace lubrication at least every 6
months".
3. Annual main inspection
Check playground equipment including all components and construction elements above and
below the playing level for damage caused by wear, vandalism, weather events, rotting, corrosion
and element formation, etc. This may require excavation or access to areas below the playground
level and subsequent repair of the playground surfacing.
Check foundations for damage due to wear, vandalism, weather events, rotting, corrosive and
element formation, etc. This may require excavation or access to areas below the playing level
and subsequent repair of the playground surfacing.
Inspect the playground surfacing using the inspection procedures and maintenance instructions
provided by the manufacturer/distributor of playground floors, particularly with regard to levels of
loose fill material.
4. Endurance of the rotating swivel
Dismount the swing joint of the playground equipment at the latest after a service life of 10 years
and send it to the manufacturer/distributor for revision. It is assumed that the playground equipment
is installed on a normally frequented playground in a normal environment. If the previous operational
inspections have shown that local factors exist that deviate from normal, the life span must be ad-
justed. This can lead to a shortening of the service life specified by the manufacturer/distributor. An
extension of the life span is excluded as this is the maximum duration.
If damage is found to the swing joints, the affected play equipment must be take out of service
and must be closed until overhauled by the manufacturer/distributor or the swing joint is replaced.
Access to the public, including children, must be prevented.
