EN INSTRUCTIONS ON ASSEMBLY AND USE
STEP 8: FASTENING OF THE NET ON THE TOP RAIL
You should in advance already place the safety net (13) on the jumping mat, before proceeding
with the assembly steps 8.1 - 8.6. This is important for step 9. Follow the steps 8.1 - 8.6, in order to
insert the top rail rods (19) into the net (13) and to affix them to the tube connectors (21). Make
sure that you, in the case of each opening in the upper net edge, insert a top rail rod with the
reinforcement into the net at the front to the right and a top rail rod WITHOUT reinforcement into
the net at the front to the left. The ends of the two inserted rods are inserted into a tube connector
(21) and finally connected with the same tube connector, with the help of the screw and securing
ring (20). Fasten the safety net as shown, by plugging together the top rings from the parts 19
and 21 and then connect them with the upper net posts (11 and 12). Start at the entrance of the
net, on the left with the net post 11 and on the right with the net post 12. Then assemble the two
different net posts alternately.
STEP 9: ASSEMBLY OF THE NET RODS
Align the entrance so that it is not positioned over one foot, but between two feet. Align the seam
of the net to a rod. Plug the upper (11 + 12) and lower (10) net rods together. Make sure that all
securing bolts click firmly into place. Lead the pads of the net poles together. Align them to the
top end of the net rods! Fasten the elastic straps at the lower net end, around the frame, to the
eyelets of the jump mat.
STEP 10 - 11: AFFIXING OF THE NET ON THE MAT AND AFFIXING OF THE FRAME PADDING
Fasten the safety net to the mat (1), with the help of the holding rope (14) and the rope needle
(15), as illustrated. For this purpose, the holding rope needs to be threaded into the rope needle.
You should initially tie a simple knot on a spring suspension, with the remaining loose side of the
holding rope. Thread the holding rope alternately in each case, through the lower edge of the net
and all remaining spring suspensions. You should in each case firmly tighten the rope, after every
4 spring suspensions. You should, after ensuring a firm connection of the net and mat, in turn tie
a connection knot with the same spring suspension as before. Finally remove the rope needle and
completely knot the rest of the holding rope. Ensure that the frame padding (2) covers the springs
and the steel frame. Initially guide the elastic bands with hooks from above and outside, around
the frame and then hook them on to a suitable eyelet on the jumping mat. Guide the two ends
of an attachment strap through the net of the spring guard. Knot the two ends of the attachment
strap on to the strap that connects the mat with the spring guard (Fig. 11).
Important warning note! Check the tight fit of all the securing bolts and screws.
MOVING THE TRAMPOLINE
In order to move the trampoline you should have as many helpers as the trampoline has feet. Prior
to lifting, all used fasteners (pegs, etc.) should be removed. Caution! Due to the spring tension the-
re is a possible risk that the frame can be twisted into a figure „8" as a result of uneven lifting! You
and your helpers should therefore be respectively positioned between two feet of the trampoline
and you should then all lift the trampoline at the same time. Lift the trampoline off the ground
slightly and keep it horizontal with the floor. To move the trampoline in a different way, disassem-
ble it completely. To disassemble, follow instructions for assembly backwards.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Use a dry or damp cloth only to clean the product; do not use special cleaning agents! Check
the product for damage or traces of wear and tear before and after each use. Do not make any
structural changes. For your own safety, please use original spare parts only. If parts become
damaged or if sharp edges or corners should develop, the product may not be used any more.
Store the product in a safe place where it is protected from the elements, cannot be damaged,
and cannot injure anyone.
• Check that jumping mat, frame pad, safety net are without defects and can withstand load.
Sunlight, rain, snow and extreme temperatures will make these parts loose strength. Replace
jumping mat, side padding and enclosure after 36 month use.
• Check the product regularly - especially before and after use! - for damage and wear marks. Not
servicing the product regularly can lead to dangerous consequences for the user.
• Verify prior to each use that the trampoline mat is not worn and parts are not loose or missing.
In particular, check all spring and bolt connections and tighten them if necessary, so that they
do not loosen during use.
• The trampoline can be blown over, when exposed to strong winds. In the event that you expect
windy weather, the trampoline must be transferred to a protected area and where expedient
also disassembled. Another possibility is to ensure that the frame of the trampoline is securely
lashed with the help of ropes and pegs. In order to ensure safety, the trampoline has to be
pegged to the ground over at least three points. Ensure that the frame of the trampoline is not
exclusively only securely lashed over a foot part of the trampoline, as this may lead to a tearing
apart of the frame connections.
• Keep the trampoline safe from impermissible access when not in use. For trampoline with
ladders, the supervisor must remove the ladder when leaving the place so that unsupervised
children under 6 years do not get on the trampoline.
• Make sure that the padding for the trampoline frame is attached securely and is at the right
place.
• In order to keep the risk of an injury to the minimum, always check the trampoline for worn,
defective or missing parts before use.
• Always inspect the safety net to find out if it is worn out or damaged before the trampoline is
used. Make sure that the safety net is properly attached, its straps are securely fastened and the
safety net itself is not damaged.
• Put the trampoline away when it is not to be used.
• Do not make any technical modifications. The trampoline and its safety net should be
dismantled or secured against use until necessary corrections have been made, if a fault or an
abnormality which is potentially dangerous to the user has been detected.
• Do not use the trampoline if it is damaged or unsafe!
• After moving the trampoline, check each point of the "Special Safety Instructions" and "Safety
Instructions" once again.
WATCH OUT FOR THE FOLLOWING
• Tears, holes or rips
• Loose jumping mat
• Pulled seams or other closure problems
• Bent or broken framework, i.e. legs
• Damaged or loose screws
• Broken, missing or damaged springs
• Damaged, missing or unsecured frame pad
• Protruding objects of any kind (especially sharp edges) on the frame, springs or the mat
• Safe functioning of the locking bolt.
DISPOSAL ADVICE
At the end of the product's life, please dispose of it at an appropriate collection point provided
in your area. Local waste management companies will be able to answer your questions on this.
SAFE USE
• Be aware of the fact that a trampoline's connecting springs can generate tremendous elasticity
and propel the person on the mat to surprising heights and cause the body to move in a variety
of extreme and unusual directions. Use the trampoline only if you are physically fit. In case of a
doubt, consult a doctor before using the product.
• Stop jumping if you have moved more than 30 cm from the logo. Get back to the centre of the
mat and on the logo to resume jumping.
• To stop jumping, bend your knees when your feet come in contact with the mat. Master this
technique before trying newer ones.
• Master basic jumps before trying advanced skills. You can combine these basic moves in a
variety of combinations with or without straight intermediate jumps to carry out various
sequences on the trampoline.
• Avoid jumping too high. Keep your jumps low till you have sufficient control on your jumps
and always land on the middle of the trampoline. Controlled jumping is more important than
height. Keep your eyes on the trampoline as it helps to control the jumps.
• Do not jump from balconies, trees or other such high places on to the trampoline. Do not use
the trampoline as a springboard. Jumps should never be higher than the safety net.
• Do not jump deliberately or bounce off the safety net. Do not hang from the top of the safety
net or try to climb it. Remove all jewellery as it may get caught or cut through the safety net.
• Contact an authorised trampoline coach for information on advanced skills.
