Instructions / Assembly

1. Place bucket swing on back on at level surface approximately 2.5 feet
x 2 feet during assembly.
2. Find the t-bar. On the backside of the t-bar remove the (2) two
pre-threaded screws using a Phillips head screwdriver releasing the
t-bar cap. Set the t-bar, t-bar cap and screws aside.
3. On the bucket swing ensure that the two hanging ropes that
run under the front of the bucket are aligned within pivot
bar and a black stopper is on either side. Hold the ropes in
place with one hand from the front.
4. With the t-bar held face down and parallel to the ground with
the head of the t-bar facing away from the bucket. Align the
cutout groove in the t-bar with the pivot bar. Slowly rotate the
t-bar towards vertical eventually resting the t-bar in the bucket.
THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED FOR USE BY
CHILDREN FROM AGES 9 MONTHS TO 36 MONTHS
ASSEMBLY NOTIFICATIONS
BEFORE YOU START: Observing the following statements and warnings reduces the likelihood of serious or fatal
injury.
• WARNING: Due to the presence of small parts during assembly, keep out of reach of children until assembly is
complete. To prevent serious injury, children must not use the swing until properly installed.
• DO NOT use swing if any damage or deterioration is detected or parts are missing. Contact point of purchase
retailer or M&M Sales Enterprises, Inc. Never substitute parts.
• IF THE SWING IS FULLY ASSEMBLED upon receipt check all parts including bucket, ropes, straps, buckles,
spring clips, chest plate, t-bar, and t-bar cap for any fractures, breaks, sharp edges, rust, or other signs
of damage or deterioration and for any missing parts before moving on to the installation section of the
manual.
• IF THE SWING REQUIRES SOME ASSEMBLY following the assembly instructions outlined below.
• Please keep instructions for future reference.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
• Assembly should be completed by adult person(s). We intend for our products to bring joy not frustration,
therefore, we say invite a friend (or someone you can spend at least 20 minutes with) to help you assemble
and install your new swing.
• Tool required for assembly: Phillips screwdriver (not included).
• IMPORTANT! Please remove all parts from the package and identify them before assembly. Some parts may
be packed in the bucket. Practice caution when removing or cutting elements to release parts as to not cut
into any swing elements.

SELECTIVE PROTECTIVE SURFACING
One of the most important things you can do to reduce the likelihood of serious head injuries is to install shock-
absorbing protective surfacing under and around your play equipment. The protective surfacing should be applied
to a depth that is suitable for the equipment height in accordance with ASTM F1292. There are dierent types of
surfacing to choose from; whichever product you select, follow these guidelines:
NOTE: Do not install home playground equipment over concrete, asphalt, or any other hard surface. A fall onto a
hard surface can result in serious injury to the equipment user. Grass and dirt are not considered protective surfac-
ing because wear and environmental factors can reduce their shock absorbing eectiveness. Carpeting and thin
mats are generally not adequate protective surfacing. Ground level equipment such as a sandbox, activity wall,
playhouse or other equipment that has no elevated play surface-does not need any protective surfacing.
Loose-Fill Materials
• Maintain a minimum depth of 9 in. of loose-ll materials such as wood mulch/chips, engineered wood ber
(EWF), or shredded/recycled rubber mulch for equipment up to 96 in. high; and 9 in of sand or pea gravel
for equipment up to 60 in. high. NOTE: An initial ll level of 12 in. will compress to about a 9 in. depth of
surfacing over time. The surfacing will also compact, displace, and settle, and should be periodically relled
to maintain at least a 9 in. depth.
• Use a minimum of 6 in. of protective surfacing for play equipment less than 48 in. in height. If maintained
properly, this should be adequate. (At depths less than 6 in., the protective material is too easily displaced or
compacted.)
• Use containment, such as digging out around the perimeter and/or lining the perimeter with landscape
edging. Don’t forget to account for water drainage.
• Check and maintain the depth of the loose-ll surfacing material. To maintain the right amount of loose-ll
materials, mark the correct level on play equipment support posts. That way you can easily see when to
replenish and/or redistribute the surfacing.
• Do not install loose ll surfacing over hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt.
Poured-In-Place Surfaces or Pre-Manufactured Rubber Tiles
You may be interested in using surfacing other than loose-ll materials – like rubber tiles or poured-in-place
surfaces.
• Installations of these surfaces generally require a professional and are not “do-it-yourself” projects.
• Review surface specications before purchasing this type of surfacing. Ask the installer/ manufacturer for
a report showing that the product has been tested to the following safety standard: ASTM F1292 Standard
Specication for Impact Attenuation of Surfacing Materials within the Use Zone of Playground Equipment.
This report should show the specic height for which the surface is intended to protect against serious head
injury. This height should be equal to or greater than the fall height-vertical distance between a designated
play surface (elevated surface for standing, sitting, or climbing) and the protective surfacing below-of your
play equipment.
• Check the protective surfacing frequently for wear.
Placement
Proper placement and maintenance of protective surfacing is essential. Be sure to:
• Extend surfacing at least 72 in. from the equipment in all directions.
• For to-and-fro swings, extend protective surfacing in front of and behind the swing to a distance equal to
twice the height of the top bar from which the swing is suspended.
• For tire swings, extend surfacing in a circle whose radius is equal to the height of the suspending chain or
rope, plus 6 feet in all directions.
