Playground Maintenance
- Check all nuts and bolts twice monthly during the usage season for tightness and tighten as required. It is particularly important that this procedure be followed at the beginning of each season.
- To prevent deterioration of materials, remove plastic swing seats and other plastic accessories and take indoors, or do not use when the temperature drops below zero degrees Fahrenheit.
- Oil all metallic moving parts monthly during usage period.
- Check all hardware and equipment for sharp edges twice monthly during usage season and replace them as necessary. It is especially important to do this at the beginning of each new season.
- Check swing seats and chains monthly during the usage season for evidence of deterioration. Severe rusting or excessive wear, especially near the top swing hanger or at the seat connection are evidence of chain deterioration. Cracks in the protective plastic sleeve or seat itself are also signs of deterioration. If any of these conditions exist, replace swing seat immediately. Replacement Accessories can be purchased through any participating Swing-N-Slide retailer. For a retailer near you click here or call 1-800-888-1232.
- Use a water seal on your gym set to protect wood and prevent cracking and warping.
