surface can cause serious injury. A shock-absorbent surface, for at least 1.50 meters around the AXI playhouse, like
grass, wood chips or sand is required for playhouses higher than 60.0 cm.

as house walls, garage, fence, overhanging branches or clotheslines.

for AXI playhouses without a raised base framework by placing a paving stone between each corner of the playhouse
and the ground.
• For the AXI playhouses with a slide, it is recommended the house should be sited so that the slide does not face south.
The temperature of the slide can be increased considerably simply by the heat of the sun.
• The distance between the rocking element and the ground must be at least 35 cm.
3. Material

rot and pests. To give the wood an extra protective layer and to finish off the wood, it has been treated with a water-based
stain. This stain, which is based on natural components, is not harmful to humans or the environment.
4. Maintenance

nuts and bolts must be tightened. 'Regularly means: when you put it up and twice a month during the outdoor play
season.
