GENERAL FOOTING RECOMMENDATIONS
Diameter and depth of footings illustrated are satisfactory in most
applications for pipe sizes up to 2 3/8” diameter. Varying soil & climatic
conditions may require deeper and heavier footings in some areas. Check
local building codes.
Detail: Detail:
Permanent Installation Suggested Bracing Method
IF RESILIENT SURFACING IS TO BE LESS THAN 12”, THEN ADDITIONAL PIPE SHOULD BE
PUT IN CONCRETE TO MAINTAIN PROPER FINISH GRADE FOR EQUIPMENT.
USE AREA AND FOOTING LAYOUT:

581-706 5” OD Arch Post Swing 8’ 6 Seat
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 recommendations 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.
ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION:
NOTE: All threaded ends of bolts protruding beyond nuts must be cut off
and/or peened to eliminate sharp edges. No more than two threads
should extend beyond face of nut. All tubing must be hammered down to
conform to the curved underlying surface to eliminate catch points. DO
NOT tighten nuts more than hand-tight until entire assembly is
completed.
STEP #1: Assemble swing frame on side, on ground. If more than one section,
assemble section by section. Layout parts so that when frame is
erected, legs will be in approximately 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 pendulums.
Close the S-hooks to within .034” (1/32”) using S-hook pliers.
STEP #3: Assemble top portion of swing hangers on top rail following spacing on
page 1 diagram.
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.
STEP #5: Stand swing upright onto legs and brace in footing holes so that 2’ –
3’ of pipe will be under intended level of resilient surfacing and top
rail is at desired height.
STEP #6: Plumb and level entire unit. Tighten set screws by using short length
of pipe on end of socket key to add leverage. Pour concrete. Crown
surface. Wait 48 hours before removing braces and using equipment.
STEP #7: Attach assembled seats to swing hangers by reattaching the pendulums to
the swing hangers. Do not over tighten 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.
