USE AREA & FOOTING LAYOUT:

581-504 4 ½” OD Single Post 4 Seat Swing
GENERAL USE/FALL ZONE & FOOTING RECOMMENDATIONS
SINGLE AXIS SWINGS:
The Use/Fall Zone should extend to the front & rear, a minimum distance of twice the
height of the Top Rail above the resilient surfacing material. The Use/Fall Zone to the
sides should follow the general recommendation of six feet minimum. This six-foot zone
may overlap that of an adjacent swing structure.
ROTATING SWINGS:
The Use/Fall Zone should extend in all directions the length of the swing plus six feet.
The six-foot minimum fall zone from the supporting structure also applies, and may
overlap the six-foot zone of an adjacent swing structure.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS:
Check MONTHLY for loose bolts, damaged or broken parts. Tighten and/or replace
immediately. On swings and any equipment that uses S-Hooks and/or Swing Hangers check
the bearing surfaces for wear. Replace any parts that show a reduction of 25% from the
original size.
SPECIFIC ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
STEP #1: Assemble swing frame on side on ground. If more than one section, assemble
section by section. Lay out parts so that when frame is erected, legs will
be in approximately the correct position.

STEP #2: Remove swing hanger pendulums from the swing hanger assemblies. Using S-
hooks, attach seats to chain and chain to swing hanger eyehook. Close the
S-hooks to within .034” (1/32”) using S-hook pliers or pounding with a
hammer.
STEP #3: Assemble top portion of Swing Hangers on Top Rail following spacing on Page
#1.
STEP #4: Footing holes may be marked out and dug from footing layout, however, it is
easier to position swing in proper location, mark holes, move swing aside,
and dig holes. Dig holes 18” in diameter and 36” deep for the large pipe
posts.
STEP #5: Stand swing upright onto legs and brace in footing holes so that 18”of pipe
will be under intended level of resilient surfacing and top rail is at
desired height.
STEP #6: Plumb and level entire unit. Use short length of pipe on end of socket key
to add leverage when tightening socket set screws. Pour concrete. Dome top
of cement for proper drainage. Wait 48 hours before removing braces,
applying resilient surfacing and using equipment.
STEP #7: Attach assembled seats to swing hangers by reattaching the bearing hooks to
the swing hangers. SEE STEP #2. OD NOT overtighten bolt on pendulum.
Hangers must move freely.
STEP #8: Attach warning label and Manufacturer’s Identification label to a clean
surface. The labels should be attached in a location where they are clearly
visible and legible and away from normal hand and foot placement areas. The
labels must be replaced if they become illegible, destroyed or removed.
Contact your SportsPlay distributor for replacements.
Maintenance:Periodically, tighten all loose parts and check for wear
and/or damage. If wear/damage is found, discontinue use of unit until
repairs are completed.
