SPECIFIC USE & SAFETY LIMITATIONS
4
Responsibility rests with the owner and supervisors of the trampoline to
make sure that all users are aware of practices specified in the Usage
and Safety Instructions.
Read all instructions before using your trampoline. For further
information or additional instructional material, contact
or your nearest trampoline club.
SITE PLANNING
•
Place your trampoline on impact-absorbing surfaces, such as
grass, wood chips, non-beach sand (to avoid rusting), rubber or
synthetic compounds.
• Ensure that the site is sufficiently stable to prevent the trampoline
from tipping or blowing away. We recommend using the Vuly
Anchor Kit (sold separately) to secure the trampoline to the
ground.
• Ensure that there is adequate overhead clearance. We
recommend a minimum clearance of 8 m/26’ from ground level.
Provide additional clearance for wires, tree branches and other
possible hazards.
•
Ensure that there is adequate lateral clearance. We recommend a minimum of at least 2 m/7’ of free space on all sides of the trampoline. This
area should be free of concrete, bitumen, brick or other hard surfaces.
•
Keep the area around the trampoline clear and away from walls, fences, building structures and other play areas.
•
Do not place the trampoline on top other objects, or store anything under the trampoline, such as garden tools and bicycles.
•
Avoid using the trampoline during gusty or severe winds. Use only when wind or air movement is calm and gentle.
•
Place the trampoline in a well-lit area.
SAFETY CHECKS
Perform the following safety check procedures before using the trampoline:
Product Check
•
Inspect the trampoline before and after each use for component deterioration, which can happen over time from use and from environmental
and weather conditions.
• Inspect the safety net structure for missing, improperly positioned, bent, broken or insecurely attached net poles, pole caps and sharp
protrusions.
• Inspect the safety net textiles for deteriorated stitching, punctures, fraying, sagging, tears or holes.
• Replace any worn, defective, or missing parts immediately, and through Vuly Trampolines only.
• Check the surface of the mat for foreign objects, and remove them.
• Ensure that the trampoline safety net (and frame padding, if applicable) is correctly fitted.
• Disallow any activity underneath the trampoline.
• Refrain from using the trampoline when it is rainy or wet.
•
Secure the trampoline properly when not in use to protect against unauthorised use.
•
Remove any ladder from the trampoline when not in use to prevent children from falling.
•
Lubricate where metal components connect, and on the springs.
•
Use only Vuly-made accessories with, or on, our trampolines.
Personal Check

Avoid bouncing while tired, or bouncing for so long that you become tired.
•
Refrain from eating or drinking on the trampoline.
•
Avoid bouncing immediately after a meal.
•
Do not use a trampoline while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
•
Ensure that the user’s weight is less than 150 kg/330 lbs (8FT, 10FT), 120 kg/265 lbs (12FT, 14FT).
Clothing Check
•
Wear clothing that is tight fitting, and that allows you to move freely.

•
Do not allow pets on the trampoline.

Do not stop any moving parts suddenly while they are in motion.
•
Do not use the trampoline in any way that is not described in this manual.
