maintenance is provided, it will provide all jumpers with years of exercise, fun, and enjoyment as well as
reduce the risk of injury. Check and maintenance of the main parts (frame, suspension system, enclosure,

out, the trampoline could become dangerous. 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 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 trampoline 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.
Retain the maintenance instruction manual. 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:
• Check all nuts and bolts for tightness and tighten when required.
• Check all spring-loaded (pit pin) joints are still intact and cannot become dislodged during play.
• Check all coverings and sharp edges and replace when required.
• In certain countries during winter period, the snow load and the very low temperature can damage
the trampoline. It is recommended to remove the snow and store the mat and the enclosure indoor.
• Check that mat and padding are without defects; NOTE Sunlight, rain, snow and extreme temperatures
reduce the strength of these parts over time.
• Replace the net after 2 years of use or when the net no longer works properly.
• 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.

Windy conditions
In severe wind situations, the trampoline can be blown about. If you expect windy weather conditions, the
trampoline should be moved to a sheltered area or disassembled. Another option is to tie the round, outside
portion (top frame) of the trampoline to the ground using ropes and stakes. To ensure security, at least three
tie downs should be used. Do not just secure the legs of the trampoline to the ground because they can
pull out the frame sockets.
