6.0 CARE AND MAINTENANCE
This trampoline was designed and manufactured with quality materials and craftsmanship. If
proper care and maintenance is provided, it will provide all jumpers with years of exercise, fun,
and enjoyment as well as reduce the risk of injury. Please follow the guidelines listed below:
This trampoline is designed to withhold a certain amount of weight and use. Please make sure
that only one person at any one time uses the trampoline. Jumpers should either wear socks,
gymnastics shoes, or be barefoot when using the trampoline. Please be aware that street shoes
or tennis shoes should NOT be worn while using the trampoline. In order to prevent the trampo-
line mat from getting cut or damaged please do not allow any pets onto the mat. Also, jumpers
should remove all sharp objects from their person prior to using the trampoline. Any type of sharp
or pointed objects should be kept off the trampoline mat at all times.
Maintenance instructions
Make sure to carry out checks and maintenance of the main parts (frame, suspension system,
mat, padding, and enclosure) at the beginning of each season and also at regular intervals of
every 2 weeks. If these checks are not carried out, the trampoline could become dangerous!
• Make sure that the hook-and-loop fasteners are closed correctly during use of trampoline!
• It is necessary to determine whether all nuts and bolts are tight, and if necessary they are
tightened;
• It shall be verified that all spring-loaded connections (locking pin) are undamaged and not
move while playing;
• Any cover screws and sharp edges must be checked and replaced if necessary;
• The maintenance manual shall be kept
Always inspect the trampoline before each use for worn, abused or missing parts. A number of
conditions could arise that may increase your chances of getting injured. Please be aware of:
• Punctures, holes, or tears in the trampoline mat
• Sagging trampoline mat
• Loose stitching or any kind of deterioration of the mat
• Bent or broken frame parts, such as the legs
• Broken, missing, or damaged springs
• Damaged, missing, or insecurely attached frame pad
• Protrusions of any types (especially sharp types) on the frame, springs, or mat
IF YOU FIND ANY OF THE PREVIOUS CONDITIONS, OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU FEEL
COULD CAUSE HARM TO ANY USER, THE TRAMPOLINE SHOULD BE DISASSEMBLED OR
SECURED FROM USE UNTIL THE CONDITION(S) HAS BEEN RESOLVED.
WINDY CONDITIONS
In severe wind situations, the trampoline can be blown about. If you expect windy weather condi-
tions, the trampoline should be moved to a sheltered area or disassembled. Another option is
to tie the ground, outside portion (top frame) of the trampoline to the ground using ropes and
stakes. To ensure security, at least three (3) tie downs should be used.
MOVING THE TRAMPOLINE
If you need to move the trampoline, two people should be used. All connector points should be
wrapped secured with weather resistant tape, such as duct tape. This will keep the frame intact
during the move and prevent the connector points from dislocating and separating. When mov-
ing, lift the trampoline slightly of the ground and keep it horizontal to the ground. For any type of
other move, you should disassemble the trampoline.
WINTER
In certain countries during winter period, the snow load and the very low temperature can dam-
age the trampoline. It is recommended to remove the snow and store the mat and the enclosure
indoors.
