6.5ft) is recommended around the elevated hanging points of your Funky Monkey Bars®.

2.  Place your Funky Monkey Bars® on level ground, away from any structure or obstruction such as a fence,  
 

garage, house, overhanging branches, laundry lines or electrical wires and remove any obstructions  

 

beneath your Funky Monkey Bars®.

other play equipment. Maintain a clear space around the whole perimeter of your Funky Monkey Bars®.
