• Objects, which could be dangerous to the user, should be
away from the trampoline
• Avoid unauthorized and unsupervised use of the trampoline.
• Do not use the Trampoline under influence of alcohol or drugs
(incl. medicines).
• Learn the fundamental jump and body positions carefully,
before trying difficult jumps.
• Stop jumping by bending your knees when your feet come to
contact with the trampoline. The skill of braking should be used
whenever you lose balance or control from a previous maneuver.
Loss of balance or control will increase the risk of injury from
landing on the frame, springs or completely off the trampoline. A
controlled jump is considered landing on the same spot that you
took off from .If you do lose control when you are jumping on the
trampoline, bend your knees sharply when you land and this will
allow you to regain control and stop your jump.
• Climb onto the trampoline. Do not jump on it directly. Do not
use the trampoline as jumping board for other articles.
ACCIDENT CATEGORIES
Somersaults:
A landing on the head or neck increases the risk of
neck and back injuries, which can lead to paralysis and some-
times death. This can occur if the user makes an error and falls
forward or backward. No somersaults should be attempted on
the trampoline. The probability of an injury increases if more than
one person is jumping on trampoline. Users can collide, fall off
the trampoline, land improperly on the jumping mat and on each
other. Smaller users will more easily be hurt in this case.
Climbing on or off the trampoline:
The trampoline’s jumping
mat is approximately one meter above the ground.Jumping off
the trampoline onto the ground or another surface can lead to an
injury. Jumping onto the trampoline from a building roof, a terrace
or other objects can lead to injury. Small children need assistance
when climbing on or off the trampoline. Be careful when
climbing on and off the trampoline. Do not step on the
cushioning or the framework. Do not use the framework for
climbing on to off the trampoline.
Hitting the framework or the springs:
When playing on the
trampoline, stay in the center of the mat. This will reduce your
risk of getting injured by landing on the frame or springs. Always
keep the frame pad covering the frame of the trampoline. DO
NOT jump or step onto the frame pad directly since it is not
intended to support the weight of a person.
Loss of control:
When users lose control of their jump, they can
land wrongly on the jump mat, land on the framework or the
cushioning or fall down from the trampoline. A controlled jump is
one where the jumper lands and jumps from the same spot.
Before a more difficult jump maneuver is practiced, the basic
controlled jump should be mastered perfectly and continuously. If
a jump maneuver is attempted, which exceeds the abilities of the
jumper; there is a danger of losing control. In order to regain
control of the jump and land correctly, knees should
be completely bent up on landing.
Under influence of drugs or alcohol:
The probability of an injury
rises if the user is under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These
substances weaken the response, the faculty of judgment, the
space awareness, the co-ordination and the motor functions of
the user.
Collision with objects:
While using the trampoline, person,
animals or articles under it will increase the probability of an
injury. Jumping on the trampoline while carrying an article,
increases the probability of an injury. Placing the trampoline too
close to electric wires, tree branches or other obstacles will
increase the probability of an injury.
Bad maintenance of the Trampoline:
Users can hurt themselves
if the trampoline is in bad condition. A torn jumping mat, bent
framework, missing cushioning or missing framework must be
replaced before using the trampoline again. The trampoline
should be examined before each use.
Weather conditions:
A wet jumping mat is too slippery for safe
jumping. Gusty or strong winds can lead to a loss of jump control
when jumping. In order to lower the probability of an injury, the
trampoline should be used under suitable weather conditions
only.
