7. InGround Trampoline
7.1 Additional warnings:
• The BERG trampoline is not recommended for use by children under 6 years of age.
• Warning
. Installation of the trampoline requires a hole to be dug in the ground. If you are not sure about the
ground work, please contact a professional.
• Objects, animals and people are not allowed under the BERG Trampoline. If you remove the protective edge,
check that nothing is lying underneath the trampoline before reattaching it.
• Installing the BERG trampoline on concrete, asphalt or any other hard surface or in proximity of other playground
installations (pools, swings, slide sets or any other play structures) is prohibited.
• If the trampoline is used with a safety net, see Chapter 9 for additional warnings about safety nets.
7.2 Additional assembly and maintenance instructions:
• Location: Find a suitable place for the installation of the trampoline ensuring there are no surrounding obstacles.
Verify soil condition and characteristics of designated location to determine installation suitability.
• While digging the hole, soil should be firm to avoid collapsing due to erosion. If necessary, strengthen the sides of
the hole or make them smooth to prevent this.
• If the ground is too hard to dig, it would be better to choose another location, or contact a groundwork
professional.
• Verify if a high ground-water level does not contribute to a collection of water in the hole. In addition, verify there
is adequate drainage to dispose rain water.
• In addition, verify there is adequate drainage to dispose rain water.
• After a rainy period and prior to usage, inspect the trampoline hole. Ensure there is adequate drainage to
dispose of rain water.
• As per the diagram in the installation manual, use the included tape measure (located in the packaging) to
measure and determine the correct diameter, depth and shape of the dug hole. Ensure the hole will be dug
according to specifications and that the walls are shaped not too steep. Deviation from hole specifications can
result in unwanted wall collapse and trampoline instability.
• The legs of the trampoline support the trampoline frame. Ensure the position of the legs are equal in height and
rest firmly on the ground. Anchor the legs with the supplied stakes.
• Inspect the hole under the trampoline regularly (at least 1x per year) and take corrective action if necessary. As
indicated in the installation instructions, check the hole for the right depth, the right shape, the stability of the
frame, and whether the trampoline is still level with the ground. Check the hole for hidden objects and remove
them if necessary.
• In some countries, the weight of the snow in winter and the very low temperatures can damage the trampoline.
BERG recommends clearing snow from the trampoline on a regular basis.
• When the trampoline is not used over short periods, it can be covered with a BERG Cover, which will keep the
trampoline free from leaves and twigs. When the trampoline is not used over longer periods (e.g. during winter),
we recommend storing the protective edge in a dry place for a longer product life.
