AKROBAT HINT:
For easier assembling of frame parts apply some grease for bearings to all junctions.
Please note:
On the long sides, the frame will appear to bow outwards - this is by design. When the springs are attached the frame will pull inwards, but always have a slide outward bow.
Important:
all trampoline sizes are approximate and can be up to +/- 1" (2,5 cm) different to those that we publish.

Fitting the mat and installing the springs
Lay the mat flat inside the frame. Make sure the logo is facing upwards. In order to make the installation of the jumping mat easier, locate the four rings in the corners of the jumping mat and attach four springs on these locations first. Pass the springs through the spring loops on the corners underside of the jumping mat. Then continue by attaching springs from the corners to the middle of the mat until all springs are attached.
At first, it may look like the mat won't fit, it will however stretch to the correct size when you finish attaching all springs.

Important:
Be sure that you hook the corner spring trough the loop in the corner. It will keep the corners of the mat in place.
AKROBAT HINT:
Springs can be hard to attach, you will need a little force. Help yourself by using one spring to pull another towards the frame holes. Do not forget to wear gloves!
Attaching the pvc retaining panels
The next stop is screwing the PVC retaining wall panels to the frame. You will need the cross-head screwdriver or battery drill with 7 mm cap and gloves. Take one panel and place it against the outside of the frame. You will find four holes in the frame and four holes in the wall panel. Insert and tighten the four screws to attach the panel tightly to the frame. Repeat with all remaining panels.
natural_image

Position the frame on the location you chose and mark the position on the ground. It's best to mark out a hole a bit wider than the diameter of your trampoline.
This will make it easier for you to put the frame in and find the right level. Dig the pit to the following dimensions:
| TRAMPOLINE SIZE | ||
| Dimension A- Trampoline size | Dimension B- Inner hole | Dimension C- Total depth |
| 6 x 10 ft / 183 x 305 cm 143 x 265 cm / 4'8" x 8'8" 75 cm / 2'6" | ||
| 11 x 8 ft / 335 x 244 cm 295 x 204 cm / 9'8" x 6'8" 75 cm / 2'6" | ||
| 14 x 10 ft / 427 x 305 cm 387 x 265 cm / 12'8" x 8'8" 90 cm / 2'11" | ||
text_image
A 25 cm / 10" 20 cm / 8" 25 cm / 10" B 20 cm / 8"The hole should not accumulate water (in which case the drainage is necessary) and it should be possible to clean during maintenance.
First, dig the outer hole to create a ledge for your trampoline frame, which needs to be 25 cm / 10" deep. This is the exact frame height, so that the safety pad on top of the frame will be just above the grass level. Continue by digging the inner hole.
Dig the inner hole according to the dimensions of your trampoline and with a bowl-shaped bottom. The inner hole should be 40 cm / 14" narrower than the trampoline size. This will leave a 20 cm / 8" ledge all around on which the trampoline will sit.
How to measure the hole depth
To properly measure the depth of the hole, use the measuring tape provided in the kit. Stretch the tape over the entire dimension of the trampoline pit. Smaller holes on both sides of the measuring tape indicate the dimension of your trampoline size. When placing the measuring tape in the area, it is first necessary to check that the measuring marks indicate the edge dimension of your trampoline. Once the edge dimension is determined, then you can easily define the central position of the pit, which indicates, where the pit for your trampoline should be the deepest (75 cm / 216" or 90 cm / 211").

It's a relatively easy task to hand dig the hole for smaller size trampolines, but it would be best to hire a mini digger to excavate most of the soil and leave you with the finishing touches. Note: You will need to save some of the soil for later.
Cover the complete surface with the weed protection, then place the trampoline frame into position. Make sure the membrane 'hugs' the shape of the hole and sits right at the bottom of the hole - keeping wjumping space under the mat.

Carefully place the trampoline on the ledge covered with the weed protection. Fill the remaining free space around the trampoline with the remaining soil, then cut off the excess material of the weed protection.
Check that the trampoline is well levelled. You may want to remove the trampoline to make any adjustments to the height that the frame is sitting on. Aim for the trampoline jumping mat to sit flush to the ground.

There should be no gap between your ground and your trampoline.
Finally, re-lay the saved soil around the trampoline and compact down as much as possible.
natural_image

Inside the package you will find four parts of gray foam. This foam needs to be inserted into PVC pocket on the bottom side, located exactly in the middle of each side of the frame pad.
The foam must be completely in the cover, this can take some effort. The operation is similar to a pillowcase. The foam may therefore no longer be visible after installation and must be fully mounted in the PVC cover.

Attaching the frame pad
Lay the safety pad on top of the trampoline, with the eyelets facing up. The eyelets facing up insert the elastic toggles through the eyelets so the loop end of the elastic faces outwards and the toggle end is on the inside.

Flip the frame pad over and pull the elastic band around the frame. Insert the toggle into the loop, then rotate the toggle inwards to secure it. Repeat with all frame pad elastics.
Important:
The frame pad must cover the entire frame and all springs.

If you find it too difficult to get the toggles in place, wedge a screwdriver carefully between the frame and PVC panel to attach the toggle. Using a flat-head screwdriver (or similar), push the loop end between the wall panel and frame. Insert the toggle from underneath and rotate to secure. Repeat with all elastics.
The last step to secure the frame pad to the trampoline is placing springs into the "spring loops". You will find them on the underside of the frame pad where each pad section joins the next one. Remove a single spring under every loop, slip it through the loop and reattach to the frame. Repeat with all loops. This will prevent the front of the pads from lifting up.

Assembling the full enclosure
Insert the safety net poles into the enclosure sockets through the 10 cm slot between the pad sections, then place the net flat on the trampoline mat with the closed zipper on top.

We advise two people to install the safety net. Lift the bottom part of the not sleeve at the entrance and start slipping it on the net pole gradually, pole by pole for 10 cm / 4" at a time. A little at a time work your way around the trampoline so the safety net will be pulled down evenly. Repeat the same steps with the half/corner enclosure safety net.
Important:
Make sure the net sleeve is pulled down completely and there is no empty space left on the top. Your net has been successfully installed!
CONGRATULATIONS!
Your Akrobat trampoline is now ready to be used. Enjoy!
If this is your first trampoline, we advise you to start by learning the basic jumps described in this manual.
Check your trampoline before each season thoroughly – particularly the frame, frame pad, springs, jumping mat and safety net. We advise regular check-ups during the season as well. In contrary, damaged parts could be overlooked, which may result in severe accidents or injuries.
Your check list should include following points:
- All parts are well attached.
- All springs are well secured to the frame and the rings on the jumping mat.
- The trampoline has no damages, such as rips, holes, sharp, twisted or broken parts. If you notice any damage, change the parts immediately.
- Check the safety net and the poles for potential damages and replace the safety net every 2 years.
For the best maintenance of your trampoline, also make sure no animals are allowed on the trampoline as they could damage both the frame pad and the jumping mat.
The trampoline should be disassembled and withdrawn from use at once in case of any damage or missing parts until the defects are repaired or parts replaced.
Extreme weather conditions can impact the trampoline materials, therefore follow these recommendations:
- Disassemble the safety net in case of strong wind and weigh the trampoline down. Store the safety net in a safe place.
- Remove the jumping mat during winter season as the weight of the snow could damage the mat.
- Protect the trampoline from direct heat, fire, sparks and fireworks.
- Protect your trampoline from heavy rain and snow as well.
The trampoline pit should not accumulate water (in which case the drainage is necessary) and it should be possible to clean during maintenance.
Cleaning the trampoline:
All Akrobat trampoline mats and frame pads are made of durable high-quality materials and should not be cleaned with any aggressive cleaning products! Trampoline surfaces are best cleaned with mild soapy water and thoroughly rinsed with water afterwards.
Remember, the trampoline should only be used by one person at the time!
User weight must not exceed:
Size 10 x 6 ft / 305 x 183 cm 100 kg / 220.5 lbs

6. JUMPING INSTRUCTIONS
KROBAT
PASSION FOR JUMPING
Each jumper must start by learning slow and controlled jumps. Safe landings are the base of trampoline jumping skills and are important to learn at the beginning. Lack of these skills may result in severe injuries.
Both jumper and instructor should keep in mind that steady balance at each jump represents the base of successful trampoline jumping.
The stopping technique is equally important as Jumping. Correct stopping represents one of the most important safety precautions in trampoline jumping. When losing control of the jump and/or balance the jumper has to react quickly to prevent injuries. In order to achieve this, the jumper should simply bend his knees before landing on the jumping mat. This is the safest way to stop the jump and prevent accidents.
While learning and training trampoline jumps, it is advised to have a persons standing around the trampoline in order to help the jumper if needed. Trampoline jumping is a physical strain and shouldn't last too long. A tired jumper can easily succumb to errors in jumping thus highly increasing risk of injury.
High trampoline jumps are considered advanced jumps and should not be allowed to inexperienced jumpers. It is extremely important to be sure that the height of the jump corresponds to the experience of the jumper.
PLEASE NOTE:
inners should learn the basic body positions and practice the basic bounces described in this manual.
earn how to balance and jump, stand in the middle of the jumping area and bounce softly up and down to control the movement. Increase the intensity gradually, returning to the same position on the jumping mat with each bounce.
cus on the jumping mat when jumping, failing to do so may quickly result in losing balance and falling.
not perform somersaults without supervision! Somersaults should be carried out only by experienced jumpers under supervision of an expert and using appropriate safety measurements.
