Do not install lawn swing frame over hard surface, e.g. asphalt, concrete, packed earth, tile or brick floor.
A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury or death to the user. The following is a list of
recommended ground covers from the Consumer Product Safety Commission:
SUGGESTED MATERIAL UNCOMPRESSED DEPTH
Double Shredded Bark Mulch 9”
Uniform Wood Chips 12”
Fine Gravel 12”
Fine Sand 12”
The Consumer Product Safety Commission’s Outdoor Home Playground Safety Handbook recommends to
install and maintain the playground equipment over at least 9 inches of wood chips, mulch or shredded rubber
(for equipment up to 8 feet high) or sand or pea gravel (for equipment no more than 5 feet high) as shock absorbing
material. Dirt and grass, which are the most prevalent surfaces under home playground equipment, do not
adequately protect children from serious head injuries. Install protective surfacing at least six feet in all directions
from play equipment. For swings, the surface should extend, in back and front, twice the height of the suspending
bar. You should consult a local contractor about ways to secure the product in your location. Do not install your
play set over hard surface, e.g. asphalt, concrete, packed earth, tile or brick floor. Please refer to the
CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION’S OUTDOOR HOME PLAYGROUND SAFETY HANDBOOK
for detailed guidelines to prevent injuries from falls and other hazards on public and home playgrounds.
WARNINGS ON ANCHORING
It is highly recommended the product be anchored into the ground to prevent movement and to make the LAWN
SWING FRAME more stable during use.
Some consumers want an anchoring system that allows the product to be moved to different locations. Other
consumers want to keep their swing set in a permanent location.
It is highly recommended that you seek the opinion from a local licensed contractor on the best way to secure the
lawn swing frame in your location. The best way to anchor a product is to create a concrete footing and use that as a
base for an anchor. Whatever method you prefer for your location, an anchoring system for this product should be
used at all times.
WEATHER CONDITIONS
Please be aware of weather conditions when using the equipment. If it is too windy, users could lose control and
suffer injuries. The frame must be properly anchored, stored away or restricted from use during inclement
weather such as heavy winds or severe weather storms. You should consult a local contractor about ways to
anchor the product in your location.
If you wish to use ground anchors, they can be purchased from the store you bought this frame from or by
ordering directly from XDP Recreation at https://www.xdp-recreation.com or by calling 1-866-884-0535 Monday
through Friday 9am - 5pm Eastern Standard Time.

INSPECTION PRIOR TO EACH USE OR DAILY INSPECTION
DO NOT use the equipment if any bolts or nuts are missing or loose. ALWAYS check to ensure the equipment
and all parts are well secured and stable before each use.
ALWAYS clear the area of any rocks, sharp objects, or any materials that could be potentially hazardous to
users.
DO NOT attach items to the equipment that are not specifically designed for use with the equipment, including,
but not limited to, jump ropes, clothesline, pet leashes, cables and chains, or children's swings as they may
cause choke hazards and the product is not designed for any of these components.
The steel and plastic parts used in your product are subject to normal wear. Gradual deterioration of the
material will occur, the speed of which will depend on the level of exposure to UV rays, airborne pollution,
outdoor weather conditions such as rain and wind and the amount of use. You must inspect the equipment
prior to every use. This includes, but is not limited to inspecting the set for cracks, excess wear, missing parts,
loose connections, and for overall integrity. When the set shows any signs of weakness, you must stop using
the play set immediately, properly store the set or restrict access by users until the condition is resolved.

Checklist and Routine Inspection and Maintenance Issues checklists provided by the US Consumer
Product Safety Commission, a copy of which is contained in this user manual.
CARE & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Inspect all nuts and bolts twice monthly during the usage season for tightness and tighten as required. It is
particularly important that this procedure is followed at the beginning of each season.
Oil all metallic moving parts monthly during the usage period.
Sand rusted areas on metal tubing and repaint using a nonlead-based paint meeting the requirements of Title 16
CFR Part 1303.
Check all coverings for bolts and sharp edges twice monthly during usage season to be certain that they are in

in your location.
The following anchoring options may be considered:
Corkscrew Anchoring (Corkscrew Anchors not included)
If your soil is hard (clay, etc.), the corkscrew method may be suitable.
Be sure that the swing set is located on level ground.
Twist the corkscrew anchor into the ground until only the end with the hook is above the ground
and next to the leg. Insert the hook into the bottom opening of the leg.
Ensure that the hook is secured onto the leg opening.
GROUND ANCHORS ARE NOT INCLUDED WITH THIS FRAME - THEY
MUST BE BOUGHT SEPERATELY. PLEASE CONSULT THE PROPER
INSTRUCTION GUIDE THAT COMES WITH YOUR GROUND ANCHOR
KIT TO ENSURE PROPER INSTALLATION WITH THIS FRAME.
Concrete Anchoring (Materials not included)
●If the swing set is set up on grounds with sandy soil (soft) condition, it must be anchored
with concrete footing (concrete not included)
●Be sure that the swing set is assembled and placed on level ground
●Dig holes around swing leg tube, as shown in drawing in the next page. As you dig deeper,
enlarge the diameter of the hole to fix the cement
●Place 2 inches of brick or gravel underneath the leg, as shown in drawing in the next page
●Use about 45 lbs. of concrete per leg
