6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure the longevity and safety of your swing set.

• Monthly Inspection: Check all nuts and bolts for tightness. Tighten as necessary.
• Seasonal Inspection: At the beginning of each play season, and twice a month during play season, check all moving parts (swings, chains, ropes) for wear, rust, or damage. Replace any worn or damaged parts immediately.
• Wood Care: The Northern Europe Scandinavian Fir wood is denser and more durable. However, regular inspection for splinters, cracks, or rot is recommended. Apply a water-repellent stain or sealant annually to protect the wood and maintain its appearance.
• Cleaning: Clean plastic and wood surfaces with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• Ground Anchoring: Ensure anchor stakes remain firmly in the ground. Re-secure if loose.
