Step2 Clubhouse Climber & Sandbox Combo - Manual (Page 6)

INSTALLATION and OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
This product is designed to create an exciting, fun-filled environment for your children. So that all children
who use this product can play securely, we ask adults who supervise play follow these important
guidelines for the unit’s use and care:
INSTALLATION:
1. Create a site free of obstacles that could cause injury. Maintain a minimum distance of 6.5 feet
(2 m) from any structure or obstruction such as a fence, buildings, low hanging branches, tree stumps/roots,
large rocks, bricks, concrete, laundry lines, or overhead wires.
2. Choose a level location for the equipment. This can reduce the likelihood of the play set tipping over
and loose fill surfacing materials washing away during heavy rains.
3. Playground equipment designed for home use SHOULD NOT BE USED indoors where appropriate fall
protection is not available. A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury. Use Playground Surfacing
Materials which comply to ASTM 1292 Standards Specification for Impact Attenuation of Surfacing Materials
within the Use Zone of Playground Equipment. Reference table X3.1. To maintain the appropriate level of
loose fill material, use containment, such as digging out around the perimeter and/or lining the perimeter
with landscaping edging.
4. Do not install product or surfacing material over concrete, asphalt, packed earth, grass or any other hard surface.
Do not install on carpeted surfaces.
5. Installations of rubber tiles or poured-in-place surfaces (other than loose-fill materials) generally require
a professional and are not “do-it-yourself” projects.
6. Fall Height: 24 inches. See Consumer Information Sheet for Playground Surfacing Materials included
in this Instruction Sheet.
7. Locate bare metal platforms and slides (metal, plastic or otherwise) out of direct sunlight to reduce the
likelihood of serious burns. A slide that faces north will receive the least direct sunlight.
8. Provide enough room so that children can use equipment safely. For example, for structures with multiple
activities, a slide should not exit in front of a swing.
9. Separate active and quiet activities from each other. For example, locate sandboxes away from swings
or use a guardrail barrier to separate the sandbox from the movement of the swings.
10. Check to be sure all connections are tight. DO NOT allow children to play on the product until it is fully assembled.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1. As with all play equipment, an adult should supervise children’s play on this product, instructing children
not to use the equipment in a manner not intended.
2. Adult supervision required. Adults supervising play should make sure children are dressed properly in well-
fitting clothes and shoes. Children should not wear potentially hazardous items such as ponchos, scarves,
capes, or bicycle and sport helmets while playing on equipment.
3. This product was designed to accommodate 4 children or a total weight of 240 lbs at a time.
4. When temperatures fall below 32°F (0°C), outdoor use of this product is not recommended. In extreme
cold plastic materials lose their resilience and may become brittle and crack upon impact. Store product in
a warmer, protected place.
5. Never allow children to use the equipment in a manner other than intended.
6. Do not allow children to climb on equipment when it is snow-covered or wet.
7. Slide feet first. One child down slide at a time.
