Digging the pit
In accordance with the installation drawing for the respective ground trampoline (see CAD drawings on pages 7–9
for dimensions).
•
The type of pit arrangement and the area surrounding the pit depend on the individual case or local
conditions. Ask the landscaper or construction company digging out the pit in case of any doubt.
•
Pit edge reinforcement is essential if the base is not stable (e.g. sandy) and the pit edges crumble away.
A fully circumferential foundation can be placed in the pit on which the frame parts are positioned or the
corresponding bases can be at least planned in the corners. For the Grand Master ground trampoline, a
fixed support base should be available, at least on the long sides, so that the longitudinal frame parts can be
screwed to the base. Eurotramp recommends installing foundations measuring 60 x 40 cm, and 60 cm deep
at the four corners and in the centre of the frame pro le in a lengthways direction respectively.
•
If the trampoline is to be placed on the pit edge without the pit being fixed with a foundation, the side walls
can run at a slight angle as shown in the installation drawing. To prevent the ground from subsequently
slipping, it should be compacted by machine before extraction. These walls can also be stabilised with fixing
elements available in the respective DIY stores. We recommend dropping the frame in at ground level. If the
frame is to be recessed, the frame padding is fixed with Velcro.
•
The soil extraction is approx. 13 cubic metres for the Standard ground trampoline and approx. 19 cubic
metres for the Grand Master ground trampoline.
•
Always make sure that the pit base must have a drainage possibility (e.g. layer of pebbles) so that the water
can soak into the ground. There is the risk of the pit filling up with water if the base is not permeable (clay or
cement layer).
•
The design of the area surrounding the ground trampoline depends on the special conditions in the individual
case. If the ground around the ground trampoline is very hard, an impact absorbing layer around the
trampoline may need to be planned so that the impact of a fall is absorbed. It must be ascertained whether
legal regulations (e.g. in playgrounds) need to be observed.
