NOTE: R5 4' deck height with handholds option
shown. Other configurations will vary slightly,
but does not affect assembly.
Public Playground Safety, Publication #325 at www.cpsc.gov for the surfacing appropriate for the fall height of
the equipment or consult your surfacing supply representative.
(A) Use liquid thread lock (such as Loctite
®
) with all threaded hardware. Important: Liquid thread lock (prior to
curing) helps to eliminate the common problem of "thread seizure" in stainless steel hardware by serving as a
lubricant during assembly.
(B) Do not pour concrete until the equipment is completely assembled, leveled and plumbed. Concrete must be
allowed to cure completely before using the equipment (at least 72 hours).
(C) Refer to Installation Manual for 09 Collars and 11 Socket Clamps installation instructions.
(D) For all steps greater than 20" above the finish grade, the distance between the stepping surface and the top
of the handhold directly above must be between 22" and 38".
(E) An appropriate energy absorbing safety surface is required under and around all playground equipment.
Loose fill protective surfacing is shown only as an example for the purpose of this assembly instruction. Other
surfacing material may vary in thickness and/or compression depths. See free publication - The Handbook for
