  • Check all fasteners twice monthly 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 when not in use for long periods, and when temperatures are extreme.

  • Check all moving parts monthly during usage period, oil when neccessary. Check wear on self lubricating bearings and replace if neccessary.
  • 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, replacements should be made immediately. Replacement Accessories can be purchased through Peppertown - order Toll Free on 1800 773 229.

  • Check logs constantly for excessive cracking and splinters. Sand the logs where splinters occur, and if the cracking constitutes any form of entrapment, use a appropriate silicon to fill the cracks.
