External Spring Trampoline

Safety

Safe use of a trampoline requires adequate knowledge of technique, as well as actions to

avoid. • Trampolines may propel users to unaccustomed heights and into a variety of body
movements – it is the responsibility of the owner of the equipment to ensure that all users are familiar with
rules for safe use. • Misuse and abuse of trampolines can be highly dangerous and may cause serious
injuries. • The owner/user of the equipment accepts all risk that may be involved in using the equipment.

• Maximum weight capacity = 120kg. Persons at or near 120kg weight should "test" spring action by

jumping lightly on the mat. If spring action is low, the person will not be propelled – stop use immediately.
Remove and inspect the springs. If the springs are stretched, the trampoline should not be used until the
springs have been replaced. Check the mat for stretching or tears and replace as necessary.

• This product is for domestic use only. Commercial or public use will void any warranty.

• Do NOT attempt to use the equipment until it has been fully assembled according to instructions. Failure

to fully and properly assemble the equipment may render its use dangerous and will void any warranty.

• Do NOT attempt or allow somersaults or other manoeuvres that may cause users to not land on their

feet. Landing on the head or neck can cause serious injury, paralysis or death.

• Do NOT allow more than one person to use the trampoline at the same time. Use by more than one

person may result in serious injury.

• Not suitable for children under 6 years of age.

• Children should always be under responsible adult supervision when using the equipment.

• When the equipment is not in use, remove the ladder to help prevent unsupervised use.

• When positioning the equipment, observe the following:

− Overhead clearance – A minimum of 8m from ground level is recommended. Provide clearance for

electrical wires, tree branches, gutters and other possible hazards.

− Avoid walls, structures, fences etc. Maintain clearance on all sides of the equipment.

− Install on a flat and level surface before use.

− Where possible, secure the equipment against unauthorised and unsupervised use.

− Remove any obstructions from beneath the equipment.

− The recommended surface is grass. If installing the equipment on hard surfaces such as concrete, a

high-density foam (similar to that used in public playgrounds) should be installed under each leg.

− It is recommended to securely anchor the equipment to prevent movement during use or from winds.

• Inspect the equipment before each use. Ensure the safety net and padding is correctly and securely

positioned. Replace any worn, defective, or missing parts.

• Do not jump on or off the equipment when mounting/dismounting. Do not use the equipment as a

springboard to other objects.

• Learn fundamental bounce control and body positions thoroughly before attempting more advanced

skills, higher bouncing etc.

• Do not use the equipment in wet conditions, gusty or strong winds.

• Always jump in the centre of the mat. Do NOT jump against the safety net or on the safety padding. The

safety net and safety padding are designed to reduce the severity of falls only, and are NOT intended as
play features.

• Do not use equipment when tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.

• This equipment is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities.

• If the equipment is to be moved after assembly, fully lift it off the ground and carry it to the new location.

Do NOT drag the equipment as this may weaken or damage the frame and will void any warranty.
