BOUNCING
1. Always bounce in the centre of the bed. Bouncing near the edge of the bed can lead to injury and can also
stretch the springs.
2. Avoid bouncing too high. Stay low until you can control your bounce and land consistently in the middle of the bed.
3. Learn basic bounces and body positions thoroughly before trying more advanced skills. Attempting a
manoeuvre beyond present skill levels increases the chance of loss of control. A controlled jump is one where the
landing is in the same spot as the take off. Before learning a more difficult manoeuvre, the preceding one should be performed
consistently under control.
4. Do not attempt somersaults without proper instruction and supervision. Landing on your head or neck, even in the middle
of the trampoline mat increases the risk of a broken neck, which can result in paralysis or death.
5. To regain control and stop your jump, bend your knees sharply when you land.
6. Do not bounce for too long or when tired.
7. Do not use the trampoline when under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF YOUR TRAMPOLINE
GENERAL
Your trampoline is designed to stand outside all year round and generally requires very little maintenance. However, a little care and
forethought can add years to your trampoline's life. Remember that the bed (mat) and frame pads are made of synthetic materials
and are easily damaged by cigarette ends, fireworks and bonfire debris.
FRAME
Do not sit or stand on the frame or the frame pads while the trampoline is in use as this restricts the frames natural reflex action. Oil
or petroleum jelly applied where the springs hook into the frame will reduce squeaking and frame hole wear. If surface rust appears
it should be removed with either a wire brush or coarse sandpaper, and the area treated with a non-toxic paint.
THE MAT
The mat (bed) will,over the years, be gradually weakened by the effects of ultra violet radiation. Therefore, the more it can be
protected from direct sunlight the longer it will last. A little mould or mildew should not harm the mat.
Do make sure that shoes are removed before bouncing and ensure that any other sharp objects such as belt buckles, brooches and
jewellery are removed too.
THE SPRINGS
Do not stand on the springs whilst the trampoline is in use. Try not to bounce on to the springs. They are not designed for this sort
of stress and can become stretched, misshapen and weakened. If you find you have any stretched springs, it is important to replace
them as soon as possible to avoid damage to the trampoline mat and avoid overloading and therefore damaging the remaining
good springs
FIRE RISKS AND DISPOSAL
Never allow toys to be placed or used near a fire. When it becomes necessary to dispose of your equipment, remove all bolts and
disassemble. Store out of the reach of children until it can be properly disposed of.

METHODS OF ACCIDENT PREVENTION

JUMPER'S ROLE IN PREVENTING ACCIDENTS
Education on the part of the user is a must for safety. Users must first learn a low controlled bounce and the basic landing positions
and combinations before proceeding to intermediate skills. Jumpers must understand why they have to master "control" before they
can start thinking about other moves. Understanding the proper progression of skills in jumping on a trampoline must be the first
lesson.
SUPERVISORS ROLE IN PREVENTING ACCIDENTS
It is the responsibility of the supervisors of 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 periods of time when supervision is unavailable or inadequate, this may require that the
trampoline be disassembled, placed in a secure area, or otherwise secured against unauthorized use. It is the responsibility of the
supervisor to be sure that the users are fully aware of the safety guidelines which are printed on the pads.
These instructions are issued in the interest of child safety, and we do ask you to follow our advice.
