GENERAL COMMERCIAL PLAYGROUND SAFETY GUIDELINES
IMPORTANT: This structure is designed to comply with the ASTM F1487 standard for users
6 months through 23 months of age.
Maintaining your playground equipment and its surrounding area is essential to minimizing the risk of
injury to users as well as maximizing its useful lifespan. Manufacture STRONGLY recommends that
you follow these Safety Guidelines in conjunction with conducting periodic maintenance inspections
using the accompanying Playground Maintenance Checklist.
When installing your playground, always consider local conditions. Good common sense works
hand-in-hand with the instructions.
LOCATING YOUR PLAY STRUCTURE:
Comply with the following when choosing the location for your new equipment:
Equipment shall be positioned to eliminate conflicting traffic patterns. As a general rule, allow at least
3' of free space around the entire structure. This minimum area should be filled with the appropriate
surface material. Read further for surfacing recommendations.
Never overlap the safety zones of adjacent equipment. All separate play equipment must have its own
safety zone, and these cannot overlap. So, if you have an existing structure with a slide exit oriented
toward your new one, add a minimum safety zone to that of the existing slide to determine how far
away you need to be. Never install playground equipment near, around, or in conjunction with
swimming pools, ponds, lakes, or any other bodies of water.
CHOOSING RESILIENT SURFACE MATERIAL:
According to ASTM guidelines: "Unacceptable material for use zones of play structures with fall
heights of 18 in. or less shall include all hard or abrasive materials such as asphalt, concrete,
terrazzo, or other materials with similar characteristics. "Other standards apply for equipment with
fall heights greater than 18 in.
Acceptable surfacing should be placed in the use zones of all equipment, as specified for each type
of equipment, and at depths to meet the critical fall heights as specified by the U.S. Consumer
Product Safety Commission, ASTM standard F-2373 and Canadian Standard CAN/CSA-Z-614.
For more information on the proper surfacing materials, call the CPSC hotline at 1-800-638-2772.
Worn surfaces around equipment should be restored. Concrete footing should never be exposed.
Refer to the attached PLAYGROUND MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST.
Check for erosion and cratering of surfaces in heavy traffic areas and restore surfacing as necessary.
Surfacing leading to play opportunities for children with disabilities should be firm, stable, slip
resistant, and resilient.

4
OVERHEAD OBSTRUCTIONS:
Overhead obstructions (for example, exterior obstructions such as tree limbs and interior lights) within
the use zones of play structures shall be a minimum 84 inches (2130 mm) above each designated play
surface outdoors and a minimum of 48 inches (1220 mm) above each designated play surface indoors.
All overhead utility line clearances above outdoor supervised and outdoor unlimited access settings
shall comply with all local, state, and national codes, such as the National Electrical Safety Code. For
specific equipment fall zone requirements, refer to the CPSC and ASTM F2373 and use the more
stringent of the two.
CATCH POINT & PROTRUDING HARDWARE:
There should be no dangerous pieces of hardware, such as protruding bolt ends and narrow gaps in
metal connections. Exposed hardware can cut or puncture skin and catch clothing drawstrings, which
could strangle a child.
All protruding nuts and bolts should be eliminated; sharp edges on pipes should be capped or removed.
Check for bent, broken, or severely worn pipe and replace. Examine play system for foreign objects,
holes, and rough edges.
TRIPPING HAZARDS:
There should be no exposed concrete footings, abrupt changes in surface elevations, tree roots, tree
stumps, and rocks, which can trip children and adults. Check for trip hazards, such as the balance
beam support posts, or environmental trip hazards, such as rocks or roots in the play area. Make all
necessary improvements or repairs.
AFTER THE EQUIPMENT IS IN USE:
-Never add components not intended for use with this product.
-Never install other play equipment, fencing, landscaping, etc., that encroach upon the safety zones of
this equipment.
-Check overall stability and rigidity of all play equipment.
-Check for proper assembly, installation and ground anchoring.
-Check and re-tighten all fasteners after the first few days of use and again after three weeks of use.
Thereafter, exercise normal maintenance procedures. Use of a thread-locking compound on the
threads of bolts can prevent persistent loosening.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE:
Regularly inspect and maintain your playground equipment and its surrounding area to help ensure the
safety of the user. Proper maintenance of Discovery Centers equipment includes using the
accompanying Playground Maintenance Checklist found in this booklet to identify areas requiring
repairs or replacement, and barricading the equipment to prevent use while corrections are being made.
As the Owner/Operator of the equipment, you should establish and maintain detailed installation,
inspection, maintenance, and repair records for each public-use playground equipment area. Find out if
your playground has a designated official who periodically inspects the play equipment for preventative
maintenance. This includes but is not limited to: replacing missing, broken or worn-out components;
securing hardware; checking for deterioration in the metal or plastic materials; maintaining the proper
depth of surfacing material; and cleaning up debris.
The following are some regular maintenance areas of note:
-Check for and repair damage caused by wear or vandalism, a major factor in injury causing situations.
-Proper maintenance of Discovery Centers equipment requires regular tightening of all bolts, nuts, set
screws, and other hardware.
-All equipment should be free of rust and repainted with an appropriate lead-free paint whenever
necessary to deter rusting. This should also be done for any chipped or peeling areas.
-Regular checking of all parts, casting, etc., should be made. If part is broken or worn it should be
replaced immediately.
-Check for missing or broken parts and repair as necessary.
-Check to be sure there is free movement on moving attached parts.
-Check for hard surfaces and correct. Refer to CPSC surfacing requirements.
-Check for surfacing material that is worn or scattered and restore.
-Debris, broken glass, trash, or other foreign objects within or on the play area/equipment should be
removed.
-Check for poor drainage areas and repair.
-Check concrete footings to see if they are exposed, cracked, or loose in the ground and repair as
necessary.

GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT! Please read the entire Installation Instructions packet before beginning the
installation.
The manufacture has designed Discovery Centers to take advantage of all Consumer Product
Safety Commission (CPSC) and ASTM guidelines in force at the time of purchase in an effort to
prevent playground accidents. However, because studies have shown most playground injuries
result from accidental falls, you, as the new owner of this equipment are responsible for providing
an acceptable play surface under and around all playground equipment. Please refer to the
accompanying Safety Guidelines as well as CPSC guidelines and this document for examples of
such surfacing.
We would like to provide the following suggested guidelines for your play environment:
-Refer to the Use Zone and note the Minimum Area Required shown for this structure. This area must
be filled with acceptable play surface material, and must be clear of all obstacles, including but not
limited to trees, curbing, sidewalk, fence, other play equipment, rocks, and landscaping, etc.
-According to ASTM guidelines: " Unacceptable materials for use zones of play structures with fall
heights of 18 in. or less shall include all hard or abrasive materials such as asphalt, concrete,
terrazzo, or other materials with similar characteristics." Other standards apply for equipment with fall
heights greater than 18 in.
-Acceptable play surfaces include: sand, mulch, fine gravel or shredded beltless tires, if installed at the
appropriate depths per CPSC guidelines for play surfacing.
-Close supervision of children playing on or around the structure is strongly recommended, along with
classroom and/or home instructions on safer behavior on the playground equipment. The full
supervision of playgrounds is the responsibility of the owner once the play structure has been properly
installed.
TOOLS REQUIRED:
Manufacture supplies only the special wrenches and bits required to fasten the “tamper-resistant”
hardware and components. You will need common wrenches as well as a drill, phillips head screw
driver, utility knife, rubber mallet, and a tape measure. Refer to the Tools Required page for a detailed
list.

GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
2. Refer to the Use Zone to ensure this structure will fit into your actual site area. Note the Minimum
Area Required measurements to determine clear space required. A minimum of 3' clearance is
required between any obstacles and your structure.
3. Site selection should include considerations of what is a safer and appropriate play area:
-A level and clear site is ideal, free of power lines or electrical equipment.
-Do not install play equipment near any bodies of water.
-If adjacent to a street with traffic, ensure adequate fencing acts as a barrier to children running into
danger.
4. Site layout should include accurate measurement and marking of all footings prior to any installation.
Use the dimensions shown between footings on the Use Zone to plot out the actual footprint of the
play structure before doing any digging. Also locate any freestanding play equipment in the same
way, providing the necessary clearance between the equipment as well as any fences, trees, etc.
Ensure at this time you have enough total space for the equipment to be installed.
