This video has helped me tremendously! Thank you! Now, if you can do one video of assembling the teeter totter airplane that would be awesome! Thank you again
😄 Very good instructions and video. Assembly went together pretty smoothly with Papa, Daddy, and two grandchildren (2 and 7) supervising and assisting. Note: Heed warnings about not over torquing bolts. Broke one, but lifetime rushed out a replacement. (Thanks Lifetime!) - Anchor system is pretty amazing vs setting cement. (Be sure anchor driving rod is properly engaged though. (Wish there were anchors for the ladder legs too, but swing-set is stable without them. - Green slide gets hot in the sun. Try to position so it is not full facing if possible. Similar to metal playground slides in South. (Yellow slide might stay cooler, but we like this set better overall. Swings and ladders do not seem to get hot like the slide.) We were a little slower than the video getting it together and positioning it where we wanted. Took a while to get it all unpacked and get the anchor driving rod loose so we could reset one anchor. (See above.) Very confident that this set is safe and will hold up for a long time. Grand kids love it!
In Step 2.7 when you attach the cross bar, can you orient the swing set in either direction? In other words if you facing the swing set can the Swings be on the left or right or does the assembly require that the swings are to the left of the slide?
Step 2.7 doesn’t point out that it’s important that one of the ladders are configured for the slide. I got to the slide step and realized I needed to swap the monkey bars around. That lost my 30 minutes. 😢
The one I received has a brown monkey bar top (not green as seen here) It appears much thicker and I am having trouble getting the screws in. Is this a new style that came with screws that are too short? Are there different versions of basically the same money bar swing set? (It also had a slide that is only in one piece and the legs of the swing set are also only in one piece.) Assembly is not as easy as it appears in this video, unfortunately.
Mine was the same. It seems to be a different version. Maybe an update bc the slide that was two pieces had more problems? My anchors had no instructions and were nothing like this video. It was a PITA to get it lined up with the bolt.
@@veganwildflower5607 Same - we got the brown monkey bar top version and the holes don't like up appropriately. Total pain in the butt. Also found the screws to be slightly too short as well.
We had same issues. We loosened all the bolts on 4 corners of monkey bars so it allowed some wiggle room to line things up. Hope this helps. We also had brown monkey bars, single frame poles but unfortunately a 2-part slide with NO hardware to attach the two parts together.
This video is great! Very detailed. The only issue we are having is at Step 2.10. We installed the anchor on one side, but can't get the driving stake back out to install the other anchors. Any suggestions?
Sorry to hear you were having troubles. A trick you could try is putting vise grips and the end of the anchoring rod (to help hold the rod) and hitting it up with a rubber mallet. This could help create motion to the rod making it move around. If you have additional questions you can always reach out to our customer service experts.

We do not recommend installing a system on a slope. This will make aligning parts difficult when assembling, as well as when it is in use will no be sturdy enough that will cause the system to tip.

How long does this project take
These gentlemen are true professionals. I appreciate you and this video ! Very helpful and actually entertaining to watch. The music was chill too.
This video helped me decide to buy this particular swing set for my kids. Thank you!

Great video, stupid I have to drill holes tho.
Are we not anchoring the ladders to the ground . How do they stay fixed to ground ?

Great vid ! Appreciate it guys !
Can you also demonstrate the anchoring? This video is very useful.

Hi, thanks for your reply. How did you get around these issues?

How does it Install in a yard with a slope? Some special tools/steps needed?
We do not recommend installing a system on a slope. This will make aligning parts difficult when assembling, as well as when it is in use will no be sturdy enough that will cause the system to tip.
Came here to figure out how to anchor the thing, well that didn't work.
Good job
I received it in 3 boxes
How would you do the anchor part if installing on asphalt
We do not recommend anchoring onto asphalt. For different alternatives, contact customer service. They can be reached at 800-225-3865 or by email at customercare@lifetime.com. Customer Service hours are Monday-Friday, 7:00 am to 5:00 pm and Saturday, 9:00 am to 1:00 pm (MT).
How much is the box size? Will they fit in compact SUVs
This system comes in a pallet with multiple boxes. The pallet size 93.37” length by 75.56” height.
No! It sure won’t. Two boxes hung out of the bed of a full size truck.
I own a Toyota Rav4 and I was able to load it. It stuck out about 10 inches but it is doable. You just have to tie it down.
