Installation Instructions 

1

. Select an area in your yard that is reasonably level and meets the space 

requirement for your equipment. Ground Space: 18’ x 12’. Play Space: 22’ 
x 24’. 

2.

 Please refer to the top rail assembly sheet and assemble your top rail as 

instructed. 

3. 

Position the top rail (see top rail Assembly page) about 12’ from the 

selected spot where you want the unit to finally stand. Using a tape 
measure and marker, mark location of the swing hangers and the ladder 
along the top rail. (see top view on assembly and installation instructions or 
measurements) 

4

. Assemble swing hangers (see swing hanger assembly sheet) and attach 

securely to the top rail. 

5.

 Using the hammer, install the plug into the open end of the top rail. 

6.

 Locate position in your yard where the upright ladder will stand. Dig the 

hole for the ladder (see installation instructions page #1). Lay the ladder 
onto the ground with the bottom of the ladder laying just over the hole 
where it will finally stand. Hint: Be sure to situate the ladder so that when 
the unit is finally standing the rungs and the third leg bolt will be facing as 
desired in your space. 

7

. Turn the top rail onto its side on the ground. Slide the top rail into the 

sleeve at the top of the ladder and position it to the marks previously made. 
(see Installation Instructions page #3). Loosely install set screws into the 
top of the ladder sleeve. Bolt “A” frame legs into place. (see installation 
instructions page #2) 

8. 

Using two strong adults, stand the swing frame up, allowing the ladder to 

fall into the hole previously dug. (Note: set will not be level at this point.) At 
this point, check to make sure that the top rail is still in its proper place 
inside the ladder top sleeve. Adjust as necessary by holding onto the 
ladder securely and pushing or pulling the “A” frame section causing the 
top rail to slide inside the top sleeve. When you are satisfied that the top 
rail is in the proper position, securely tighten the set screws in the top 
sleeve of the ladder.
