• ALWAYS ENSURE THAT WHENEVER THE TRAMPOLINE IS USED BY ANYONE AT ANY SKILL LEVEL THAT DO SO UNDER SUPERVISION.
• Stop exercising immediately should you feel unwell or if you feel pain in your joints and muscles. Dizziness is a sign of fatigue and you should stop bouncing and lay down on the ground should you feel dizzy.
• When using this trampoline ensure appropriate clothing is worn, preferably sports wear and socks. NEVER WEAR SHOES ON THE MAT.
• Please be warned that trampoline is spring based and will allow the user to jump to a greater height than that on the ground, so please bear this in mind and ensure that you are comfortable bouncing at low heights first.
• Proper assembly, care and maintenance of product, safety tips, warnings, and proper techniques for jumping on your trampoline are included in this manual for your safety and an extended product life span. All users and supervisors should therefore familiarize themselves with these instructions. Anybody who chooses to use the trampoline must be aware of their own limitations with regards to performing skills on this trampoline.
• This product is intended for home use only.
• Moving the Trampoline. If the trampoline and enclosure needs to be moved, it should be moved by two persons, kept horizontal, and lifted slightly. If necessary, the trampoline and enclosure can be taken apart for moving. To take the trampoline apart, follow the assembly steps in reverse order.

2.2 Use of the trampoline

INITIALLY, you should get accustomed to your trampoline and understand how much spring is in each bounce. The focus at this point should be body position and technique until each skill can be completed with ease and control.

BEFORE YOU TRY TO JUMP TOO HIGH the technique for stopping should be learnt as this will help prevent injury should you feel you are jumping out of control.
- As the user lands on the bed, the knees should be bent so that they stop and absorb the spring in the mat. The position is shown in the image to the left. Arms are held out for increased level of balance.
- This skill is used when the trampoline user wishes to stop bouncing on the trampoline due to fatigue, loss of control, etc.

SOMERSAULTS (FLIPS): DO NOT PERFORM somersaults of any type (backwards or forwards) on this trampoline. If you make a mistake when trying to perform a somersault, you could land on your head or neck. This will increase your chances of your neck or back being broken, which could result in death or paralysis

FOREIGN OBJECTS: DO NOT use the trampoline if there are pets, other people, or any objects underneath the trampoline. This will increase the chances of an injury occurring, DO NOT hold any foreign objects in your hand and DO NOT place any objects on the trampoline while in use. DO NOT place the trampoline under over-hanging objects like tree branches, wires, etc as these will increase your chances of being injured.

POOR MAINTENANCE OF TRAMPOLINE: A trampoline in poor condition will increase your risk of being injured. Please inspect the trampoline before each use for bent steel tubes, torn mat, loose or broken springs and overall stability of the trampoline.

RESTRICTING ACCESS: When the trampoline is not in use, always close the enclosure opening so that unsupervised children can not play on the trampoline.

2.3 Tips to reduce the risk of accidents

In order to reduce the risk of accident the "TRAMPOLINE USER" should:

• Always remain in control of their jumps and body position at all times.
• Not attempt to perform skills that are beyond their own level of competence.
• Read and understand the jump by taking off and landing in the middle of the trampoline.
• Always control their jump by taking off and landing in the middle of the trampoline.
• Always jump vertically and refrain from bouncing towards the springs in any direction.
• Always consult a professionally certified trampoline instructor before attempting anything beyond basic techniques.

In order to reduce the risk of accident the "SUPERVISOR" should:

• Fully understand and enforce all the safety rules and guidelines.
• Advise the trampoline user and provide knowledge in what they are doing right and wrong to ensure the safety of trampoline user.
• Be aware and advise the trampoline user of all the safety warnings.

IMPORTANT: If the Trampoline can not be supervised there should be a method for securing it and preventing anyone from using the product until supervision is available.

2.4 Trampoline Safety Instructions

ADVISORY PRECAUTIONS WHILST USING THE TRAMPOLINE

• Do not use trampoline if you have consumed alcohol or narcotic substances
• You should climb on and off the trampoline in a controlled and careful manner. Never jump onto or off the trampoline and never use the trampoline as a means to bounce onto or into another object.
• Always learn the basic bounce and master each type of bounce before trying more difficult types of bounces. Review the basic skills section to learn how to do the basics.
• To stop your bounce, flex your knees when you land on your feet.
• Always be in control when you are bouncing on the trampoline. A controlled jump is when you land at the same spot that you took off from. If at any time you feel out of control, stop bouncing immediately.
• Do not jump or bounce for prolonged periods of time of too high for a number of jumps. Keep your eyes on the mat to maintain control. If you do not, you could lose your balance.
• Never have more than 1 person on the trampoline at any one time.

ADVISORY PRECAUTIONS WHILST SUPERVISING TRAMPOLINE

IMPORTANT: Familiarise yourself with the basic jumps and safety rules. To prevent and reduce the risk of injuries, ensure that all safety rules are enforced and the new users learn the basic bounces before trying more advanced techniques.

• ALL USERS need to be supervised, regardless of skill level or age.
• Never use the trampoline when it is wet, damaged, dirty or wore out. The trampoline should be inspected before use.
• Keep all objects that could interfere during use away from the trampoline at all times. Be aware of what is overhead, underneath and around the trampoline.
• To prevent unsupervised and unauthorized use, the trampoline should be secured at all time.

2.5 Accident classification & identification

MOUNTING AND DISCOUNTING:

Be very careful when getting on and off the trampoline. DO NOT mount the trampoline by grabbing the frame pad, stepping onto the springs or by jumping onto the mat of the trampoline from an object(eg. A deck, roof, or ladder). This is considered highly dangerous. DO NOT dismount by jumping off the trampoline and landing on the ground. If small children are playing on the trampoline, they may need help in mounting and dismounting

USE OF ALCOHOL OR DRUGS:

DO NOT consume any alcohol or take any drugs (this includes medication that could affect the users co-ordination) when using this trampoline. This is considered highly dangerous since these foreign substances impair your judgements, reaction time and overall physical co-ordination.

MULTIPLE USERS:

Only one user at a time; danger of collision!

STRIKING THE FRAME:

When playing on the trampoline, STAY in the centre of the trampoline mat. This will reduce the risk of being injured by landing on the frame. Always keep the frame pads covering the frame of the trampoline. DO NOT jump or step onto the frame pad directly since it is not intended to support the weight of a person.

LOSS OF CONTROL:

DO NOT try difficult maneuvers until you have mastered the basics. If you do not follow these guidelines, you increase the risk of someone being injured.

WARNING: Take a break every 10 minutes.

3.0 Trampoline techniques

Basic Skills

BASIC SKILL 1: The basic bounce

• Start from a standing position, with feet shoulder width apart head up and eyes on the trampoline bed.
• Swing arms forward and up above head in a circular motion.
• Bring legs and feet together in mid-air position and point toes.
• Land back on the mat with feet shoulder width apart (same as start position).
• Why not try moving onto the next skill once comfortable and proficient.

BASIC SKILL 2: The Knee Drop

• Start with a low basic bounce (as detailed in BASICSKILL1).
• Land on knees shoulder width apart, keeping back straight and a strong body position using arms out to the side or in front to maintain balance.
• Bounce back to basic bounce position by using bounce momentum and swinging arms above head.
  Once mastered at this height try bouncing a little higher, but remember to always stay in control of your height.

BASIC SKILL 3: The Seat Drop

• Start with a low basic bounce (BASIC SKILL 1) in the normal position.
• Land with legs out straight in front of you, with hands either side of your hips and back straight in a strong body position.
• Use the bounce momentum aided with a push from hands to return to a standing position.
  Once mastered at this height try bouncing a little higher, but remember to always stay in control of your height.

It is particularly important to follow the following maintenance instructions at the beginning of each season and periodically during the use season:

It is necessary to determine whether all nuts and bolts are tight, and if necessary they are tightened;
- It shall be verified that all spring-loaded connections (locking pin) are undamaged and not move while playing;
- Any cover screws and sharp edges must be checked and replaced if necessary;
- The maintenance manual shall be kept

Always inspect the trampoline before each use for worn, abused or missing parts. A number of conditions could arise that may increase your chances of getting injured. Please be aware of:

• Punctures, holes, or tears in the trampoline mat
• Sagging trampoline mat
• Loose stitching or any kind of deterioration of the mat
• Bent or broken frame parts, such as the legs
• Broken, missing, or damaged springs

MOVING THE TRAMPOLINE

If you need to move the trampoline, two people should be used. All connector points should be wrapped 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. When moving, lift the trampoline slightly of the ground and keep it horizontal to the ground. For any type of other move, you should disassemble the trampoline.
