maintenance instructions closely to ensure the equipment is
safe to use and lasts as long as possible.

Care, Maintenance and Use Instructions MUST be read carefully before using the trampoline!

Care and Maintenance

• Missing, improperly positioned, or insecurely attached

frame padding, trampoline enclosure or frame padding
and pole caps.

• Punctures, frays, tears, or holes worn in the bed, barrier or

support system (frame) padding.

• Deterioration in the stitching or fabric of the bed, barrier or

support system (frame) padding.

• Bent or broken frame.

• Ruptured springs.

• A sagging trampoline bed.

• Broken, missing, or damaged springs.

• Protrusions of any types (especially sharp) on the frame,

springs, or mat.

Carry out checks and maintenance of the main parts (frame,
suspension system, bed, pads and enclosure) at regular intervals.
If these checks are not carried out the trampoline could become
dangerous.

It is of particular importance that these be followed at the
beginning of each season, as well as at regular intervals during
the usage season.

• Check all nuts and bolts for tightness and tighten when
required.

• Check all spring loaded (pit-pin) joints are still intact and
cannot come undone during play.

• Check all coverings for bolts and sharp edges and replace
when required.

• Check for evidence of wear or deterioration and replace if
needed in accordance with these instructions.

High Wind

The trampoline can be blown around by high winds. If you
expect high winds, the trampoline should be moved to a
sheltered location, taken apart, or tied down to the

ground with
ropes and stakes (not included). At least three ropes and three
stakes should be used. Make sure to attach the ropes to the top
of the frame; do not simply secure the legs or the bases to the
ground, as they can separate from the frame sockets. The top of
the stakes should be covered, if necessary, so that users will not
be injured by falling onto the stakes.

Moving the Trampoline

If the trampoline needs to be moved, it should be moved by
two persons, kept horizontal, and lifted slightly. All connector
points should be wrapped and secured with weather resistant
tape, such as duct tape. This will keep the frame intact during
the move and prevent the connector points from dislocating
and separating. If necessary, the trampoline can be taken apart
for moving. To take the trampoline apart, follow the assembly
steps in reverse order (steps 1-7). Do not attempt to take frame
sections, legs, or bases apart before the mat and springs have
been remo

ved.

Assembly

and Moving Hints!

Select a location where you want the trampoline permanently
prior to assembly. Do not pick up the frame more than 2 inches

the ground, picking it up too high can cause the frame to

warp.
If the frame does warp, put the trampoline down, press down on

atten the

frame.

Disassembly

To disassemble the trampoline, follow assembly STEP 1 through
STEP 7 in reverse order. Do not attempt to disassemble any frame
components before the springs and the mat have been removed.
Use gloves to protect your hands from pinch points during
disassembly.

This trampoline and trampoline enclosure were designed and
manufactured with quality materials and craftmanship. If proper
care and maintenance is provided, it will provide all jumpers with

years of exercise, fun, and enjoyment as well as reduce the risk of

injury. Please follow the guidelines listed below:

• This trampoline is designed to a certain amount of weight and
use. Person should weigh less than 105 lbs. (47.63 kgs).

• Please make sure that only one person at any one time uses

the trampoline.

• In order to prevent the trampoline mat from getting cut or

damaged please do not allow any pets onto the mat.

• Always inspect the trampoline and enclosure before each use
for worn, defective or missing parts. A number of conditions

could arise that may increase your chances of getting injured.
Please be aware of:

WARNING - GENERAL

WARNING - USAGE

• Jumpers must wear socks, gymnastic shoes, or be barefoot when using the

trampoline. Please be aware that street shoes or tennis shoes should NOT be
worn while using the trampoline.

• Jumpers should remove all sharp objects from their person prior to using the
trampoline. Any type of sharp or pointed objects should be kept off the

trampoline mat at all times.

• Initially, you should get accustomed to the feel and bounces of the

trampoline. The focus must be on the fundamentals of your body position
and you should practice each bounce (the basic bounces) until you can do

each with skill and control.

• To break a bounce, all you need to do is flex your knees sharply before they

come in contact with the mat of the trampoline. This technique should be

practiced while you are learning each of the basic bounces. The skill of
braking should be used whenever you lose balance or control of your jump.

• Always learn the simplest bounce first and be consistent with the control of
your bounce before moving on to more difficult and advanced bounces. A
controlled bounce is one when your take “off ” point and landing point is the
same spot on the mat. lf you move up to the next bounce without first

mastering the previous, you increase your chances of getting injured. Do not
bounce on the trampoline for extended periods of time because fatigue can
increase your chance of injury.

• Misuse and abuse of this trampoline is dangerous and can cause serious

injury! Trampolines being a rebounding device, propel the performer to
unaccustomed heights and into a variety of body movements.

• Always inspect the trampoline and trampoline enclosure before each use for

worn-out mat, loose or missing parts.

• Climbing on and off the trampoline. It is a dangerous practice to jump from
the trampoline to the floor or ground when dismounting, or to jump onto

the trampoline when mounting. Do not use the trampoline as a springboard
to other objects.

• Stop bouncing by flexing knees as feet come in contact with the trampoline
bed. Learn this skill before attempting others.

• Avoid bouncing too high. Stay low until bounce control and repeated

landing in the center of the trampoline can be accomplished. Control is more
important than height.

• While keeping the head erect, focus eyes on the trampoline toward the

perimeter. This will help control bounce.

• Keep objects away which could interfere with the performer. Maintain a clear

area around the trampoline.

• Bounce only when the surface of the bed is dry. Wind or air movement

should be calm and gentle. The trampoline must not be used in gusty or
severe winds.

• Bounce in the center of the bed.

• Avoid bouncing when tired. Keep turns short.

• Properly secure the trampoline and trampoline enclosure when not in use.

Protect it against unauthorized use.

• For additional information concerning the trampoline equipment, contact

the manufacturer.

• Users may become entangled in or strangled by loose cords or in gaps

between trampoline and enclosure.

• Keep enclosure tightly fastened to the trampoline in accordance with the
manufacture’s instructions. Failure to properly assemble and maintain a

tight, secure trampoline/enclosure boundary may result in serious injury,
strangulation, or death.

• Do not attempt to jump over the trampoline enclosure.

• Do not attempt to crawl under the trampoline enclosure.

• Do not intentionally rebound off the trampoline enclosure.

• Do not hang from, kick, cut, or climb on the trampoline enclosure.

• Wear clothing free of drawstrings, hooks, loops or both.

• Do not attach anything to the trampoline enclosure that is not a

manufacturer-approved accessory or part of the enclosure system.

• Enter and exit the trampoline enclosure only at the opening
designated for that purpose.

IF YOU FIND ANY OF THE PREVIOUS CONDITIONS, OR
ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU FEEL COULD CAUSE HARM TO
ANY USER, THE TRAMPOLINE SHOULD BE DISASSEMBLED
OR SECURED FROM USE UNTIL THE CONDITION(S) HAS BEEN
RESOLVED.
