ADA Swing - Commercial Grade

Swinging on a swing set is a childhood memory that every child deserves to have. It is not only a fun activity, but it also helps in the development of special needs children. Studies have shown that learning while swinging can improve retention and reduce anxiety, leading to improved behavior and focus. Swinging has also been found to aid in improved eye contact, response, and speech skills, making it an essential part of sensory integration therapy. The A1300 swing is designed to cater to physically challenged children, providing them with the opportunity to enjoy swinging. The swing is made of durable rotational molded plastic, with stainless steel hardware that is rust-resistant. The attachment points are reinforced to prevent breakage, and the swing frame height is not required when ordering. The newly designed A1300 accessible swing seat offers exceptional strength and meets ADA Standards, as well as CPSC and ASTM Standards. The new design offers added support, wider sides, larger armrests, and larger footrests. The swing s adjustable chains allow for multiple reclining positions, ensuring added comfort and support. The swing s design includes a yoke and a unique locking system that meets ASTM and CPSC head entrapment standards. An optional removable harness is available for purchase for added support, but it should not be left on an unattended swing as it can cause a strangulation hazard. Playing on swings helps develop relationships and improves communication, interactions with others, and imagination. It is an activity that helps special needs children develop socialization skills and promotes healthy interaction with their peers. The A1300 swing, with its partially reclined, body-embracing design and overhead yoke system, offers special needs children a fun, safe, and comfortable ride. **Installation, Safety, and Maintenance Instructions** Please read and follow the precautions and instructions prior to installing, using, or maintaining the playground equipment. You can also call us at 1-800-433-2573 for more information, or go to https://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/pubs/325.pdf . Although plastic may become as hot as metal, plastic has better insulation properties and does not transfer heat as quickly. This is due to the thermodynamic and lower heat transfer properties of plastic, making it the preferred choice for playground equipment over metal. The Consumer Product Safety Commission CPSC recommends plastic slides and surfaces in lieu of bare metal. In extreme temperatures and direct sunlight, plastic can still become hot enough to cause burns. For safety, parents and guardians alike must be present while the children are using the equipment at all times. Check playground surfaces and equipment for excessive heat prior to use. For more information, contact IPEMA headquarters at co ************ @ *** ma.org or by calling 1-717-238-1744. Installation: Verify that the warning label is visible prior to installation. Additional warning labels are available for purchase, and information for these warning labels are included with your packing list. The seat is to be 18” off the ground to meet ASTM standards. Each seat comes installed with a V-chain 6’ long and an additional top chain 15” long for an 8’ frame height. For different frame heights, the top chain may be replaced with a longer chain. Please see chart below for more details. A tamper-proof stainless steel shackle A5705 and special wrench A5750 are included and can be relocated on the chain for adjustment of the reclining position of the seat. As per ASTM standards, the hangers must be spaced 30” from the end of the swing frame, and 24” apart for each swing on the frame. If you are not using shackle pendulum swing hangers, you will need to order two 2 S-hooks or two 2 additional A5725 shackles to attach the swing chain to the hanger.
