CARE AND MAINTENANCE
It's important 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,
pointing out that if these checks are not carried out, the trampoline
could become dangerous.
• Check all nuts and bolts for tightness and tighten when required;
• Check that 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;
• Retain the maintenance instruction manual;
• Outdoor trampolines should be equipped with a device that in strong
wind conditions avoid
displacement due to wind (e.g. steel bars in the ground or loads like
sand bag or water bags) and/
or items catching wind like net and mat should be removed;
• 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, padding, enclosure and soft surface are without
defects;
• Replace the net after 1 years of use;
• In severe wind situations, the trampoline can be blown about, it
should be moved to a sheltered
area or disassembled. Another option is to fix it to the ground with
suitable devices, such as using
ropes and stakes.

physical sports and activities there is the risk of participants receiving an
injury. To ensure your future enjoyment and the prevention of injury, be sure
to follow appropriate safety rules and tips.
• It's recommended to place the trampoline on a level surface at least 2 m
from any structure or obstruction such as a fence, garage, house,
overhanging branches, laundry lines or electrical wires.
• Trampoline shall neither be installed over concrete, asphalt or any other
hard surface nor at proximity of other conflicting installations (e.g. padding
pools, swings, slides, climbing frames...).
• Any modifications made by the consumer to the original trampoline (e.g.
the adding of an accessory) shall be carried out according to the
instructions of the manufacturer.
• If the trampoline and enclosure need to be moved, it should be moved by
two adults, kept horizontal, and lifted slightly. If necessary, the trampoline
and enclosure can be taken apart for moving. To take the trampoline apart,
follow the assembly steps in reverse order.
• Self-securing nuts and screws are suitable only for one time setting up,
and must be replaced after breakdown of the trampoline and/or safetynet.
• The safety net has a limited durability, replace after 2 years of use.
• It is recommended to place the trampolines on a flat and level surface with
at least 3 m distance to other superstructures, or barriers, e.g. fence,
garage, house, tree branches, washing lines, or electrical cables.
• The trampoline shall not be placed over hard surfaces like asphalt,
concrete etc.
• Exchange defective parts according to the supplier's recommendation.
• Changes to the trampoline (e.g. addition of an accessory) must be done
according to the supplier's instruction.
