centers of each swing hanger for each swing are at least 20” apart (see Detail B). NOTE: All other side
to side measurements will need to be set and veried after swing seats are installed (swing seats and
chains are sold separately).

Using adequate manpower, turn swing frame upright and set into place in footings. Center of top bar
needs to be 96” above nished surfacing (120” if a 10’ tri-pod frame is installed). Pour concrete in footings
to correct level. Fill remainder of hole with dirt NOTE: Concrete must have a minimum rating of 2,500 psi
and must be mixed per manufacturer’s recommendations. Fill remainder of hole with dirt. Allow concrete
to harden for at least 48 hours before use!

Install appropriate age level sticker on swing frame. Full bucket seats require a 2-5 label - all other
seats require a 5-12 label. For safety reasons, do not attach swing chains or seats to swing frame until
playground is ready to open. NOTE: Swing seats and chains sold separately.
