Responsibilities of the user
The key here is to stay in control of your jumps. DO NOT move onto more complicated, more difficult
maneuvers until you have mastered the basic, fundamental bounce. Read, understand, and practice all
precautions and warnings prior to using the trampoline. A controlled jump is when you land and take off from
the same location. For additional tips and instructions, contact a certified trampoline instructor.
Supervisor’s or owner’s role in preventing injuries
It is the responsibility of the supervisor(s) of the trampoline users to provide knowledgeable and mature
supervision. They need to know and enforce all the rules and warnings set forth in this manual in order to
minimize the likelihood of accidents and injuries and to inform users of these rules. During the periods of time
when supervision is unavailable or inadequate, the trampoline should be disassembled and stored in a
secure place to prevent unauthorized use. The supervisor is also responsible to ensure that the safety
placard is placed on the trampoline and that the jumpers are informed of these warnings and instructions.
Warning!
Read all instructions before using the trampoline.
DO NOT attempt or allow somersaults. Landing on the head or neck can cause serious injury,
paralysis or death, even when landing in the middle of the bed.
Allow only one person on the trampoline at any time. Use by more than one person at the same time
can result in serious injury.
Use the trampoline only with mature, knowledgeable supervision at all times.
Inspect the trampoline before each use. Make sure the frame padding is correctly and securely
positioned. Replace any worn, defective or missing parts.
Keep objects away which could interfere with the jumper. Maintain a clear area around, above and

Failure to properly assemble and maintain a tight, secure trampoline/enclosure boundary may result
in serious injury, strangulation or death.
Completely close the opening of the enclosure before jumping. Close the opening of the enclosure
after using the trampoline.
