ALWAYS CONSULT A PHYSICIAN BEFORE PERFORMING ANY KIND OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
 Adequate overhead clearance is essential. A minimum of 24ft from ground level is recommended. Provide
clearance for wires, tree limbs, and other possible hazards.
 Lateral clearance is essential. Place the trampoline away from walls, structures, fences, and other play
areas.
 Maintain a clear space of 2.5 meters on all sides of the trampoline. For safe use of the trampoline, please
be aware of the following when selecting a place for your trampoline:

Place the trampoline on a level surface before use; illumination may be required for shady areas and
indoor areas.

Secure the trampoline against unauthorized and unsupervised use.
 Remove any obstructions from beneath the trampoline.
 The owner and supervisors of the trampoline are responsible to make all users aware of practices
specified in the use instructions.
 Do not attempt or allow somersaults. Landing on the head or neck can cause serious injury, paralysis or
death, even when landing in the middle of the bed.
 Do not allow more than one person on the trampoline. Use by more than one person at the same time can
result in serious injury.
 Use trampoline only with mature, knowledgeable adult supervision.
 For additional information concerning the trampoline equipment, contact the manufacturer.
 Only for domestic use and outdoor use.
 Not suitable for children under 3 years. Small parts. Choking hazard. Long cord. Strangulation hazard.
 Maximum weight of the user shall not exceed 198lbs (90kg) for 12FT.
 Maximum weight of the user shall not exceed 220lbs (100kg) for 15FT.
 Only one user. Collision hazard.
 Adult supervision required.
 No somersaults.
 Always jump in the middle of the mat.
 All nuts and bolts must be checked for tightness and if necessary must be retightened.
 All spring-loaded (pit pin) joints must be checked to see that they are still intact and cannot become
dislodged during play.

Check all coverings for bolts and sharp edges and replace them if necessary.
 If self-locking nuts are used, it should be noted that these are only suitable for one assembly and must
therefore be replaced.
 Information regarding the expiry of the enclosure.

Trampolines over 20in. (51 cm) tall are not recommended for use by children under 6 years of age.
 Inspect the trampoline before each use. Make sure the frame padding is correctly and securely positioned.
Replace any worn, defective, or missing parts.
 Climb on and off the trampoline. It is a dangerous practice to jump from the trampoline to the floor or
ground when dismounting, or to jump onto the trampoline when mounting. Do not use the trampoline as a
springboard onto other objects.
 Stop bounce by flexing knees as feet come in contact with the trampoline bed. Learn this skill before
attempting others.
 Learn fundamental bounces and body positions thoroughly before trying more advanced skills. A variety of
trampoline activities can be carried out by performing the basic fundamentals in various series and
combinations, performing one fundamental after another, with or without feet bounces between them.
 Avoid bouncing too high. Stay low until bounce control and repeated landing in the center of the trampoline
can be accomplished. Control is more important than height.
 Focus eyes on the trampoline. This will help control bounce.

Avoid bouncing when tired. Keep turns short.

Properly secure the trampoline when not in use. Protect it against unauthorized use. If a trampoline ladder
is used, the supervisor should remove it from the trampoline when leaving the area to prevent
unsupervised access by children under 6 years of age.
