GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Included in this manual are instructions for: Proper assembly, care and maintenance of
product, safety tips, warnings, and proper use; in order to ensure a secure and fun use of
the trampoline. All users and supervisors must read and familiarize themselves with all
these instructions and all other information in this manual.

As with any type of recreational physical activity, without being careful participants can be
injured. Anybody who chooses to use this trampoline must be aware of their own limitations
in regards to performing various jumps and bounces with this trampoline. Trampolines are
rebounding devices which propel the performer to unaccustomed heights through a variety
of movements, so initially; you should get accustomed to the feel and bounce of the
trampoline. The focus must be on your body position, and you should practice each
fundamental bounce until you can do each bounce with skill before moving on to more
difficult and advanced bounces. Do not behave recklessly on the trampoline, emphasis
must be made on good control and the mastering of various bounce techniques.

Proper Assembly

¾ The assembly of the product must be done carefully by at least two able-bodied

adults. Contact us, or ask any technically qualified person if you have any difficulties.

¾ Beware that when using tools or doing technical work, there is always a risk of

injury, so assemble the product carefully, and use gloves to protect your hands.

¾ Remove all packaging materials and lay down all parts on a free space. This gives

you an overview and simplifies the assembly procedure. Check with the parts list
that no parts are missing and dispose of the packaging material when the assembly
is completed.

¾ Work in a danger free environment, do not leave tools or hazardous materials

scattered around the workspace.

¾ Place trampoline on level and non-slippery ground, preferably on grass. Locating

the trampoline on a hard surface will add stress to the frame and over time cause
damage which is not covered by warranty. Placing the trampoline on uneven
surfaces could result in the trampoline tipping over.

¾ A clearance space of at least 24ft is necessary above the trampoline. An appropriated

clearance must be kept between the trampoline and possible sources of danger, such
as electric cables, tree branches, playing devices, swimming pools and fences.

¾ After assembling the trampoline according to the instructions, please make sure that

all screws, bolts and nuts are correctly installed and tightened, and that all joints are
tightly sealed.

¾

For additional stability you can place sand bags on the trampoline legs. This will
prevent the trampoline from tipping over in the event of any sideward force.

¾ Never set up the trampoline in rainy, windy or stormy conditions, especially lightening

conditions. It is recommended that the trampoline be taken apart and stored in bad
weather.

¾ Do not alter the product; use it only as described in this manual.

Care and Maintenance

¾ Always inspect the trampoline before each use. Check for damage, wear or defective

parts, as they can impair the overall safety of the trampoline. The damaged, worn, or
defective parts should be replaced immediately. In the meantime access to the
trampoline must be restricted.

¾ Use the trampoline only in a well-lit area.

¾ Do not place any objects under the trampoline.

¾ Repairs should only be carried out by qualified technicians, using only original spare

parts. Improper repairs can compromise the safety of your trampoline.

¾ Strong winds can compromise the stability of the trampoline. If strong winds are

predicted, the trampoline must be fastened to the ground with cords and moorings,
moved to a protected place, or taken apart and stored.

¾ Try to avoid moving the assembled trampoline, it could bend during transportation.

Should it be necessary to move the trampoline, please consider the following: At least
four people, evenly spaced around the frame, are needed to lift the trampoline off the
ground. The trampoline must be carried horizontally, and if the frame shifts position,
use four people to draw the trampoline back into the correct shape.

¾ The trampoline can only be used if the jumping mat is clean and dry. Worn or

damaged jumping mats should be replaced immediately.

Safety Guidelines

To reduce the risk of injury, please carefully read and follow the appropriate safety rules
and tips, implementing all safety rules at all times.

¾

The product is intended for home/domestic
use only and is not suitable for professional or
medical uses.

¾

No more than one person at a time is allowed
on the trampoline! Multiple jumpers increase
the risk of mid-air collisions resulting in injury.

¾

Do not perform somersaults on the trampoline
as this will increase the chances of landing on
your head or neck, paralysis or even death
can result.

¾

Children do not recognize the potential
dangers of this product, so do not allow your
children to play on this product without adult
supervision.

¾

Trampolines over 51 cm (20”) in height are
not recommended for children under 6 years
of age.

Warnings

¾ Secure the trampoline against unauthorized use.

Do not use during pregnancy or if suffering from high blood pressure.

¾

¾ Do not smoke on the trampoline or use the trampoline when under the influence of

alcohol or drugs (incl. Medication).

¾ Protect the product against humidity and high temperatures.

Do not put cigarettes, pets, sharp objects or

¾

any other foreign objects on the trampoline.

¾ Do not expose the trampoline to open flames.

¾ The metal frame of the trampoline will conduct electricity. Lighting, extension

cords and all electrical equipment must never be allowed to come in to contact
with the trampoline parts.

¾ The trampoline may not be used in the close vicinity of other leisure devices

and constructions.

¾

Do not allow anyone or any object to go
under the trampoline while someone is
jumping on the mat. The jumping mat is

flexible and the downward force created by

someone jumping can cause serious injuries.

¾ Take care to keep the packaging materials beyond children’s reach, as they

present a choking hazard.

Proper Use



The maximum weight allowed on the trampoline is 500 lbs. Overloading the
trampoline above the recommended user weight will cause damage to the
trampoline.



No more than one person at a time should be allowed on the trampoline!



Avoid unsupervised use of the trampoline.



Do not use the trampoline if it is wet.



Do not wear shoes while jumping; this will damage the jumping mat.



Do not sit or lean on the cover pad as it needs to be flexible so it can move with
the jumping mat.



Objects that could be dangerous should be vacated from the playing area.



Do not allow small children to pull themselves up onto the trampoline by using the
cover pads, as this may damage the pads and compromise the safety of your
trampoline.



Do not wear clothes with hooks or loose parts when jumping on the trampoline, in
order to avoid getting stuck in any trampoline parts.



Carefully climb onto trampoline. Do not jump into it directly, or use it as a jump board
for other activities. Jumping into the trampoline, hitting the frame, cover pads, and
landing incorrectly on the trampoline; can lead to injury.

It is the responsibility of the owner or the supervisor to guarantee that all users of the
trampoline are informed about all safety rules and that there is sufficient space around
the trampoline to allow for safe play.

Learn the fundamental jumping techniques thoroughly before trying difficult jumps, see
section: Fundamental Bounce Techniques for further guidance.

connnect the pole to the legs by sliding it on to the
leg extensions (part D). Slide the pole down the legs
until it stops. Repeat this step for all 4 legs.

Step
