INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a Sportspower product! This trampoline was designed and manufactured with quality materials and craftsmanship, providing fun and exercise in the enjoyment of your own backyard.
It is very important that the owners and users of this trampoline have adequate knowledge of techniques and rules for proper use. In particular, children must be supervised at all times by a knowledgeable and mature adult while using the trampoline. Take precautions to prevent access to the trampoline by children when there is no adult supervision. Also restrict access to any unauthorized users without your consent.
Carefully read and understand all of the instructions and warnings in the User Manual before assembling and using this product. It is the responsibility of the owner of this trampoline to ensure that all users of this product are fully informed on the proper use and the inherent risks of jumping on a trampoline. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death. In particular, under no circumstances should you attempt or allow flips, somersaults or any similar conduct. Landing on the head or neck can cause serious injury, paralysis, or death, even when landing in the middle of the mat. Also, do not allow more than one person on the trampoline under any circumstances. Use by more than one person at the same time increases the chance of injury.
To reduce risks associated with users falling off the trampoline, enclosure netting must be properly installed and used at all times. The trampoline enclosure must be closed during use to prevent the user from falling off the trampoline. Your trampoline enclosure netting is manufactured with UV resistant material. Despite this, exposure to harsh elements (sunlight, wind, moisture, animals, etc) will weaken the netting. The netting and mat must be inspected prior to every use and maintained regularly as detailed in this User’s Manual.
Please also ensure proper placement of this product to avoid injuries. It is essential that the intended site for this trampoline is completely flat and level. If the ground is uneven, this could cause movement in the frame and stress on the joined sections of the frame that could damage the trampoline and/or can cause serious injury. Do not position this trampoline on hard surface such as concrete, tarmac or paving. Suitable surfaces include flat dirt or grass, sand or play area covered with an appropriate depth of play bark material, with no obstructions above, below or near the product.
The product must not be used in windy conditions as wind can cause unexpected movement of the product. Wind can cause the trampoline to be lifted off the ground and become airborne. This can present a danger to individuals and to property. Winds can be especially strong in open areas, foothills, mountains, locations subject to hurricanes and tornadoes, areas between homes that create wind tunnels and anywhere else where local weather conditions can create high winds. We recommend that you anchor the trampoline or otherwise secure the trampoline to prevent it from moving as a result of the wind. One possible way to anchor the trampoline is to secure the trampoline to a concrete footing under each leg. We recommend consulting a local licensed contractor to best determine how the anchor system should be constructed for your specific conditions. The licensed contractor can also advise you of other options such as below ground installation. Even with anchors, a trampoline can be lifted, just like anything else, by strong winds. If the winds are anticipated to be very strong, the trampoline should be disassembled and stored away safely until the weather conditions improve. Damage from the wind or other severe weather is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. Because the manufacturer warranty does not cover wind or weather related damage and damage can be caused to your property or the property of others by a windblown trampoline, it is strongly advised that you provide site specific anchoring through a licensed local contractor.
Only genuine Sportspower replacement parts sold through our authorized dealer are recommended. Replacement parts from other sources may not have been designed, tested or manufactured to Sportspower standards. Because of this, Sportspower cannot guarantee the performance and safety of the product when non genuine replacement parts are used. The use of non-genuine Sportspower replacement parts may affect any warranty claim on the product, as allowed by the law in your jurisdiction.
DO NOT RETURN PRODUCT TO THE STORE. FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE OR REPLACEMENT PARTS, PLEASE CALL (+44) 03300 904420 or VISIT www.sportspowerfit4kids.com

Appropriate Use Conditions:
Children must always be supervised while they are playing on the trampoline and must be instructed not to use the trampoline in an inappropriate or hazardous manner. Take precautions to prevent access to the trampoline by children when there is no adult supervision.
Restrict access to the trampoline by any unauthorized users without your consent.
Trampolines are rebounding devices, which propel the user to unaccustomed heights, and into a variety of body movements. Rebounding off of the trampoline, striking the frame or springs, or improperly landing on the trampoline mat may cause serious injury.
Always start and maintain your jump at the center of the trampoline mat in order to reduce the risk of landing on the frame or springs or falling off the trampoline.
Avoid bouncing too high. Stay low until you can control your bounce and land consistently in the middle of the trampoline mat.
Ensure the trampoline frame and springs are fully covered by the frame pad to avoid any direct contact with metal parts.
Do not stand or jump on the springs while using the trampoline. The springs are not designed to support such stress and weight. This can result in serious injuries and/or product damage. If you see any signs
of stretched or damaged springs, do not use the trampoline until replacement springs are properly installed. Please contact our customer service representatives to order original Sportspower replacement parts.
The trampoline is several feet off the ground. Jumping off the trampoline to the ground or any other surface may result in injury. Smaller children may need assistance getting up onto or down from the trampoline. Mounting and dismounting properly should be followed as a strict rule. Users should climb onto the trampoline by placing their hands on the frame and stepping or rolling up onto the frame, across the springs and onto the mat. Do not step directly on the frame pad or grasp the frame pad when mounting or dismounting the trampoline. To dismount, jumpers should walk to the side of the mat, bend over and place their hands on the frame, then step from the mat to the ground. Users should always place their hands on the frame while mounting or dismounting.
Do NOT use the trampoline as a springboard to jump onto other objects.
Remove all objects not designed for use with the trampoline from the trampoline before use. Do not let children take toys or other items onto the trampoline.
Do not eat while jumping.
The trampoline should not be buried or sunken into the ground.
During winter period, the snow load and the very low temperature can damage the trampoline. It is recommended to remove the snow and store the mat and the enclosure indoor.

FRAME PADS – Frame pads are there to protect user from any fall or landing on the springs and frame. On no account should people be permitted to sit or stand on them when the trampoline is in use. You should also make sure that smaller users do not use the inside edges of the pads as a “handle” when getting up on to the trampoline.
Never use the trampoline without the frame pad being securely attached. Properly tie down the frame pad before each use. Improper assembly of the frame pad may lead to injury!
Always check to ensure there are no obstructions or objects under the trampoline that could cause injury or obstruct movement of jump mat. Also check that there are no pets or other people underneath the trampoline.
Do not jump on the trampoline with a snowboard, skateboard, roller blades, bicycle or any other equipment. DO NOT hold any foreign objects not authorized by the manufacturer in your hand and DO NOT place any objects on the trampoline while anyone is jumping on it. Please be aware of your surroundings to ensure there are no objects that could cause harm when you are playing on the trampoline.
The frame of your trampoline is made of steel and it will conduct electricity. No electrical equipment (lights, heaters, extension cords, household appliances, etc.) should be permitted in or on the enclosure under any circumstances to avoid the risk of electrocution.
Always jump in the middle of the mat.
Enclosure Netting and Mat – Appropriate Use Conditions
Children MUST NEVER be left unattended inside the enclosure at any time.
The enclosure is ONLY intended to be used to reduce the risk of injury from falling off the trampoline. Do not intentionally kick, bounce against, climb on, hang from, jump over or crawl under the netting.
Enter and exit the enclosure only through the zipper door. Do not go through the gap between the netting and the mat. Trying to exit this way poses a risk of strangulation, especially for young children.
The enclosure netting and mat must be inspected prior to each use. If there are any signs of weakness, you must stop using the trampoline immediately, properly store the trampoline and restrict access by users until a new Sportspower authorized replacement netting or pad is installed. Please refer to the Trampoline Net & Pad – Maintenance Requirements section contained in this manual for further details.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR ENCLOSURE NETTING AND MAT
Important Instructions for Enclosure Netting and Mat
Failure to follow these instructions to ensure proper operational condition of your trampoline may lead to serious injury or death.
1.Maintenance of Trampoline Enclosure Net, Mat and Pad
Enclosure nets and padding are prone to wear and tear like tires on a car. Gradual deterioration of the material will occur; the speed of which will depend on the level of exposure to UV rays, airborne pollution and outdoor weather conditions such as rain and wind.
The net and padding needs to be properly maintained and checked by following the Maintenance Schedule set out in these instructions. When the material shows any signs of weakness, you must stop using the trampoline immediately, properly store the trampoline and restrict access by users until a new replacement net or padding is properly installed.
Official Sportspower replacement nets and padding can be purchased by contacting our authorized customer service by toll free number or email which can be found on the website www.sportspowerfit4kids.com.

The net surrounding the trampoline must be checked prior to each use. This includes, but is not limited to inspecting the net for cracks, excess wear, brittleness, and stretching. Also inspect all connections and the entire enclosure for overall integrity. The net must be immediately replaced if it shows any signs of wear, damage, stretching, cracking, looseness, brittleness or other losses in integrity. The following Maintenance Schedule must be followed:
1 to 3 Months |

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR ENCLOSURE NETTING AND MAT
How to Inspect the Trampoline Net for Proper Use
Always check the enclosure netting for signs of UV damage, deterioration, brittleness, cracking, and tearing every time before using the trampoline and enclosure.
Step 1 - Inspect the enclosure netting before EACH use for wear or tear by pinching and pulling a section of the netting between fingers and pulling downward. Please see diagram below.
If it produces any tear or cracking or ripping sound, then the net is unsafe and MUST be taken down immediately. STOP USING THE TRAMPOLINE ENCLOSURE IF YOU FIND ANY SIGNS OF WEAR
OR TEARING ON THE NETTING.
Step 2 - Walk around the whole perimeter of the trampoline to visually check for material deterioration or other damage.
3. Maintenance Requirement for Trampoline Pad
Walk around the whole perimeter of the trampoline to visually check for material deterioration, tears, looseness, loss of elasticity or other damage in the pad.
It is recommended that you replace the trampoline enclosure net and pad every 12 months. Replace the enclosure net and pad earlier if there are any signs of wear, tear, brittleness, cracking, stretching or any other signs of weakness. New enclosure netting and pad can be purchased through SPORTSPOWER’S authorized service center (toll-free numbers and email address can be found on our website www.sportspowerfit4kids.com).
