7. CPSC guidelines mandate that there shall be no gaps present in the playground equipment that
fall between 3-1/2" and 9". The positioning of certain components by the installer can affect this
criteria, so you should always measure distances created when attaching components in order to
avoid these spaces which can cause entrapment of a child using the equipment. Also, ASTM
requires that no more than 2 threads of a bolt can protrude from the nut. Any excess threads
should be filed down and made smooth to the touch.
8. When concrete is poured, be sure to keep the top 4" below grade, and sloped away from the post
to promote good water drainage. Wash off any concrete that may have splashed onto the post
before it dries. Allow all concrete to harden a minimum of 48 hours before allowing use.
SAFETY DURING INSTALLATION:
1. Before doing any excavation, inquire about any existing underground utilities.
2. Do not leave the job site unattended without making sure that all fastening hardware on all
equipment is tightened and all drive rivets are in place to prevent clamps from moving, in case
of unauthorized use. UPlayToday CLAMPS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO SUPPORT HUMAN
WEIGHT WITHOUT THE DRIVE RIVETS INSTALLED, AND SUCH USE COULD CAUSE
INJURY TO THE USER AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT. It is also strongly
recommended that all installation areas be roped off with clearly marked warning signs posted.
Any open footings should be covered with plywood or other suitable material. Even during
installation, it has been found that children will use the unattended equipment, thereby risking
accidents.
3. If concrete footings and inground footers are being used, it is strongly recommended that the
installation area should remain roped off for at least 48 hours after the last concrete footing is
poured. Children should not be allowed to use the equipment during this period so that concrete
has a chance to fully cure.
