Assembly
1) Locate a flat, dry area with access to electrical outlet or extension cord.
IMPORTANT: Because of the size and weight of the Escalade™, careful thought
must be given to the setup area. Ideally, the tube should be carried into position
prior to setup. The best setup position will also make launching easy. Therefore,
locate the Escalade™ near the water’s edge.
NOTE: Dragging or sliding the Escalade™ over ground either before or after infla
-
tion can cause damage.
2) Once in the setup/ launch position, unfold the Escalade™ tube completely and
locate the Main Valve. The Main Valve is located near the bottom of the item, on
the main climbing wall.
3) Using a high output pump, place the inflation hose with proper adaptor into the
Main Valve to inflate the Escalade™ tube. Inflate to 1.0 psi (0,069 bar). Check for
proper air pressure using a manometer. After inflation, replace Main Valve cover.
Inflation times can vary by inflator, but the Escalade™ should be firm and tight
when completely inflated. DO NOT OVER-FILL. Excessively high pressure
can cause damage to the product and may void the warranty. Carefully monitor air
pressure in the product especially during hot weather.
WARNING: Do not use an air compressor to inflate tube. Air compressors are
designed for high pressure inflation and can cause tube to burst if over-inflated.
4) Next, install the Escalade™ on the Supertramp™. This may be done with the
trampoline at anchor, or in launching position. When moving the Escalade™, make
sure to have at least 2 people evenly spaced around the product to help carry it.
NEVER DRAG THE ESCALADE™! YOU MUST LIFT AND SET TO AVOID ANY
ACCIDENTAL TEARING AND/OR ABRASION. Place the Escalade™ in position
on top of the fully assembled Supertramp™.
NOTE: To properly install, the Escalade™ MUST be positioned with an open set of
Interloc™ rings at it’s base along the waterline.
5. Use 2 shorter Escalade™ Lower Straps to connect the base of the Escalade™
to the Interloc™ rings along the waterline on the Supertramp™ on both sides.
Each Escalade™ Lower Strap must go through the outermost Interloc™ rings and
through the corresponding side ring on Escalade™. Cinch the strap securely and
check the item regularly for stability. See Escalade Diagrams 1 & 2 for details.
6. Using 2 longer Escalade™ Upper Straps, connect the Escalade™ to the the
Supertramp™ steel bar frame. Each Escalade™ Upper Strap must go around the
bar frame and through the corresponding side ring on Escalade™. From the side
ring, the strap should angle inward slightly, to encircle the steel frame beneath the
inward edge of the Escalade. This connection is critical to keep the Escalade™
stable, so cinch the strap securely and check the item regularly for stability.
7. Make sure that all connections are tight and that there is NO GAP greater
than 25mm (~3/4”) between items. IMPORTANT: Failure to connect these items
properly may result in injury or death.
NOTE: The Escalade™ Accessory is designed solely for use with Aquaglide®
Supertramp™ models, and not for use with any other trampoline or bouncer.
