Mainstay
Materials
What’s included:
4 Play Panels and 1 Clamber Panel, 1 blue Hover Platform, 1 steel Star Hub, 1 solar panel with 5 light strands, wood screws and hex bit, 15 U stakes, 5 anchor feet, 16 carabiners, 49 panel straps, 2 velcro storage straps and rubber mallet for securing feet
What else you’ll need: power screwdriver or drill, 8+ foot ladder
Wood
For the Mainstay, you will need:
5x 10 foot pressure treated 2x4”s
Tips and Tricks
*You will need 20x20ft. of space to properly assemble the Mainstay
*Use button on bottom of solar panel to turn it ON before attaching it
*Install feet, tighten star hub bolts, attach top 2-3 panel straps, and install solar panel, all while on the ground with wood laid out in star position
*Do not spread out and stake down feet until all straps are attached, or legs may be too spread apart to properly attach panels
*Straps attach in two different ways; panel to wood (clamber panel side), and panel to panel, pay close attention in assembly video or instructions to ensure they are done properly
*When straps are properly attached, wood should be almost entirely covered between panels, not visible from the outside
*To get panels tight, it helps to have one person inside the Mainstay pushing legs out, and one person outside the Mainstay pulling legs apart, this may take a few minutes of adjusting
*The blue Hover Platform should be installed with the green sewn-in straps facing the ground
