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) Concrete must be allowed to cure completely before installing the equipment (at least 72 hours).
(C) Refer to Installation Manual for R5-09 Collars and R5-11 Socket Clamps installation instructions.
(D) Follow the installation procedure for expansion anchors (min. 1/2" x 5-1/2") as provided by the manufacturer.
Expansion anchors and hardware are not included with assembly.
(E) Important: Gap between Trans-Glide Deck and Transition Deck must be between 1-1/8" [29mm] to 1-1/4"
[32mm]. The top of Trans-Glide Deck to top of Transition Deck must be flush 1/4" [6mm].
(F) 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
