Use and Care Manual

● The swing set is designed to be used by children ages 4 and up. No
more than 4 persons should use the set at once, not more than one
person per swing.
● An adult should always supervise children using the swing set.
● Do not allow a child or adult to use the swing set if they have a physical
condition that hampers their ability to use the equipment properly.
● Teach children not to walk close to, in front, in between or behind
moving swings.
● Make sure your children know not to jump off a swing that is in motion.
● Teach children not to twist or loop the swing chains/ropes. This may
weaken the strength of the chain/rope.
● Teach children to only use each swing in the proper manner it is
intended for. Children should learn to sit in the centre of the swing, with
their full weight on the seat.
● Instruct children not to push empty seats – the swing may hit them on
the rebound, and may cause serious injury.
● All who use the swing set should dress appropriately e.g. avoiding loose
strings that could get caught in the swing chains.
● Take care when using the equipment after it has gotten wet, only allow
children on the swings when there is sufficient traction for them to be
safe.
● No one should use the equipment before you have checked that it is
assembled and anchored properly.
