3
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read and follow all of the warnings, precautions, and
instructions in this manual before you use the trampoline enclosure. Warnings and instructions for care, maintenance, and use of this
trampoline enclosure are included to promote safe, enjoyable use of this equipment.
WARNING:
It is the responsibility of the owner and supervisors of the
trampoline and enclosure to make sure all users obey the safety
instructions given in this manual. The trampoline should only be
used with mature, knowledgeable supervision.
1.
Secure the trampoline and trampoline enclosure against unauthor-
ized and unsupervised use. If you use a ladder to get on and off
the trampoline, be sure to remove it when the trampoline and
enclosure are not being used.
2.
Be sure there is enough clear space above the trampoline and
enclosure before use. It is best to have at least 24 feet (7.3 meters)
of clear space above the ground. This space must be clear of
wires, tree limbs, and any other possible hazards.
3.
Lateral (sidewise) clearance is very important. Do not place the
trampoline and enclosure near walls, buildings, fences, sidewalks,
and other play areas. Always keep a clear space on all sides of the
trampoline and enclosure.
4.
Remove any objects that could interfere with the performer.
Maintain a clear area around and under the trampoline.
5.
Be sure the trampoline and enclosure are on a level surface before use.
6.
Always inspect the trampoline and enclosure before each use.
Make sure that the frame, padding, netting, enclosure tubes, and
foam sleeves are correctly and securely positioned. Replace any
worn, defective, or missing parts. (Jumpers may be hurt if the
trampoline and enclosure are used when they are in poor condition.)
7.
Bounce only when the surface of the mat (bed) is dry. There
should be very little or no wind or air movement. The trampoline
and enclosure must not be used in gusty or severe winds.
8.
The trampoline and enclosure frames are made of metal. They are
not grounded and will conduct electricity. For this reason, an
electrocution hazard exists. No lights, electric heaters, extension
cords, or household electrical appliances are to be permitted in or
on the trampoline or enclosure at any time.
9.
Use the trampoline and enclosure in an area with lots of light. If
the trampoline and enclosure are indoors or in shady areas you
may need to use artificial (electrical) lighting in the area.
10.
During the winter months the trampoline soft materials will need
to be removed and stored in a dry place. If left up in the winter
months it may cause damage to the springs, jump mat, spring pad
and enclosure. The warranty will be void
11.

can cause serious injury.
15.

manufacturer-approved accessory or part of the enclosure system.
16.

get caught in the enclosure netting.
17.
Wear clothing free of drawstrings, hooks, loops, or anything that
could be caught in while using the trampoline/enclosure and
result in entanglement and strangulation, or both.
18.
DO NOT let more than one person inside the trampoline
enclosure at the same time. Two or more people jumping at the

any objects, especially something sharp or breakable.
20.

Landing on the head or neck can cause serious injury, paralysis,
or death, even when landing in the middle of the jumping bed.
22.
Always climb on to and off of 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 to other objects.
23.
Enter and exit the enclosure only at the enclosure door or barrier
made for that purpose.
24.
DO NOT
attempt to crawl under, jump over, intentionally bounce
off of, hang from, climb on, kick, or cut the barrier netting.
25.
While keeping head erect, focus eyes on the trampoline toward
the perimeter. This will help control bounce.
26.
Stop bouncing by flexing knees as feet come in contact with the
trampoline bed. Learn this skill before attempting others.
27.
Avoid bouncing too high. Stay low until bounce control and
repeated landings in the center of the trampoline can be
accomplished control in more important than height.
28.
Avoid bouncing when tired. Keep turns short.

various series and combinations, performing one fundamental
