The airplane and motorcycle are made of a durable Roto molded polyethylene with weather resistant decals. They come in bright colors that resist fading. Each one comes with an enclosed rubber spring that helps to prevent pinching and provides a smooth ride. Decals are applied with heat. They will be hard to remove and resist fading. The airplane is 23" from ground to seat. The dimensions are 23" W x 23" W x 38" H.  The plate is 10" square 8.25" center to center.    

**Installation, Safe Use and Maintenance Instructions** 

IMPORTANT:  To keep children safe from harm, follow these precautions and instructions when installing, using, or maintaining this playground equipment. You can also call us at 1-800-433-2573 for more information or see http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/pubs/325.pdf.  

Due to the thermo dynamics and lower heat transfer properties of plastics, plastic slides are preferred over metal slides for play equipment. Although plastic slides may become as hot as metal, they insulate better and don’t transfer the heat as quickly. Because of these properties, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recommends plastic slides and plastic surfaces over bare metal.

 Regardless of lower heat transfer properties, plastic play equipment can still become hot enough ‐‐ in extreme temperatures and direct sunlight ‐‐ to cause burns. Plastic slides are safe, tried and true, but as is the case with all playground equipment, parents and supervisors must monitor the children in their care, make certain that the equipment is appropriate for their age, and always check playground surfaces for excessive heat before allowing children to play.  For more information, contact IPEMA headquarters at www.communications@ipema.org or by calling 1‐717‐238‐1744.

Installation: Determine correct footing locations and dig footings.  The hole size may vary depending on local soil, weather conditions and local laws.  Attach spring to bottom plate using SPR casting.  These have built in threads.  Slide SPR casting through coil of spring.  Position casting and attach with ½” x 1 ¾” H.H.B. and ½” lock nuts.  Tighten bolts. 

Slide SPR casting through coil of spring positioning casting so that it faces the same way as lower casting.  Slide spring cover over spring.  Compress spring cover and attach spring to top plate using SPR casting.  Attach to top plate using ½” x 1 ¾” Hex Head Bolt and ½” lock nuts.  Tighten bolts.   

Pour concrete into footing hole and level off.  Using 10” x 10” bottom plat on assembled spring as a template, insert ½” anchor bolts into the concrete.  Remove spring assembly.  Allow to set 2 – 3 days. 

*NOTE:  Allow enough thread on anchor bolts to secure bottom plate to footing. 

Attach body to spring assembly using 3/8” x ¾” H.H.B. and 3/8” lock nuts.  Tighten nuts and bolts.  Place assembled body into position.  Attach bottom plate to anchor bolts using ½” lock nuts and ½” flat washers.  Tighten nuts and peen bolts.  Install resilient surfacing material. 

Safe Use:  This is for children 5-12 year olds only.  Not for Adults.   Adults should supervise children at all times.  Do not allow children to stand on or use unsafely.  Do not allow it to be used if damaged. 

Maintenance: Do the following to reduce the chance of serious injuries.  Check monthly for cracks, rust, missing rivets, open S-hooks or evidence of vandalism such as cutting, metal showing through the material or bent seats from children standing on them.  Tighten and lubricate all metallic moving parts per manufacturer’s instructions.  Check all protective coverings on nuts, bolts, pipes, edges, corners and all moving parts including swing hangers, swing seats, ropes, cables, chains and shackles.  Replace as needed.  Make sure there are no exposed footings, anchoring devices, rocks, roots, holes or any other obstacles in or around playground equipment.  In high use areas these inspections should be done more frequently.   Clean with mild soap and water when you do the monthly maintenance checks.   

Any damage from vandalism, abuse or misuse VOIDS all warranties.
