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.
