ASSEMBLY instructions
BEFORE YOU START
• WARNING: Due to the presence of small parts during assembly, keep out of reach of children until assembly
is complete. To prevent serious injury, children must not use the swing until properly installed.
• Assembly should be completed by adult person(s). We intend for our products to bring joy not frustration.
Because the Hammock SwingTM is meant to enjoy with friends too, we say invite a friend (or someone you can
spend at least 20 minutes with) to help you assemble and install your new swing.
• A flat level surface approximately 6 ft. x 4 ft. will be needed to spread out swing cover material for assembly.
• A wrench is included for tightening the four nuts.
installation instructions
TREE LIMB ASSEMBLY: Test tree limb to ensure that it will hold
the weight limit of
300 lbs. safely.
SWING SET OR OTHER HORIZONTAL BEAM ASSEMBLY:
Attach swing to a swing set by removing two sets of swings from
the existing swing set and attach the four metal loops to the
swing support hook hardware installed on equipment or
optional carabiners/spring clips.
1. Do not install home playground equipment over concrete,
asphalt, packed earth, grass, carpet or any other hard
surface.
A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury or death
to the equipment user.
2. To prevent serious injury, children must not use the
equipment until properly installed.
3. Confirm that the supporting structure is secure, it will support
at least 300 lbs., is over level ground, has a minimum height
of 7 ft. and is no less than 6 ft. on all sides from vertical
elements. Swing should have a clearance of at least 1.5 times
the total length of all the rope measured from the tree
limb/horizontal beam to the spring clip(s) attachment point.
4. Adjust swing hanging length so platform is parallel with
ground. Bottom of swing should be no more than 24 in. and
no less than 18 in. from the ground.
1. Lay out all necessary swing components
pictured above.
2. Unfold material swing cover on level surface with design
facing up. Pull the four hook/loop straps toward the center
so the fastening side faces up.
3. Connect a one-end shrinked straight tube (with metal pin)
with a two-end shrinked straight tube. Depress metal pin
with thumb to slide end into tube, pin will pop through
hole and hold tubes together. This creates the side length
tube. Slide through swing cover sleeve. Repeat this step
on second side with remaining two poles.
Insert the narrow ends of the side sections with the wider
ends of the curved-tubes that come pre-inserted in the
sleeves at ends of cover.

the tubes connection points.
