WINDY CONDITIONS
Strong wind can blow the trampoline away. If you are expecting strong wind, you should
store the trampoline in a sheltered place or disassemble it. You can also tie the rounded,
outside edge (top rail) of the trampoline to the ground using ropes and stakes. Secure it in
at least three places. Do not only secure the legs of the trampoline, as they can be pulled
out of the frame sockets.
MOVING THE TRAMPOLINE
You need at least two people to move the trampoline. Tape all the connection points with
weather-resistant tape, e.g. duct tape. This helps to keep the frame intact and prevents
the parts from moving and separating. When moving the trampoline, lift it up and keep
it horizontal to the ground. For any other kind of transport, you must disassemble the
trampoline.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Firstly, get used to how it feels to jump on a trampoline. Focus on basic body positions and
practise each jump (basic jumps) until you can easily perform them in a controlled way.
• To stop a jump, bend at the knees when your feet touch the mat. Practise this when
you are learning the basic jumps. Always use this technique if you lose balance or lose
control of the jump.
• Learn the basic jump first and make sure you master it before practising more
advanced jumps. A controlled jump is when you start a jump and land it on the same
point on the mat. If you try more advanced jumps before you have mastered the basics,
you will put yourself at risk of injury.
• Do not jump too long as tiredness increases the risk of injury. So only jump for a short
while and then let other people have a go! Only one person should jump at a time.
• Climb carefully on and off the trampoline to prevent any injuries. When you climb onto
the trampoline, grab hold of the frame and then climb or roll over the edge, the springs,
and then up onto the mat. Always hold the frame when you are climbing off or on the
trampoline. Do not hold or climb on the edge protector. When you want to climb off the
trampoline, hold the frame and then climb down onto the ground. Help children to get on
and off the trampoline.
• Do not jump down from the trampoline as this increases the risk of injury. It is important
to keep in control and be able to master jumping to avoid any injuries. Never try to jump
higher than anyone else! Do not use the trampoline without anyone watching you.
JUMPER
• When you are jumping, it is important to remain in control. Do not perform more advanced
exercises until you have mastered the basic jumps. Knowledge of the trampoline is also
important to prevent any injuries. Read through, think about and apply all the safety instructions
before using the trampoline. A controlled jump is when you start a jump and land it on the same
point on the mat. For more safety instructions, contact an experienced instructor.
