InGround installation and dismantling:
•
Location: Find a suitable place for the installation of the trampoline ensuring there are no surrounding obstacles.
Verify soil condition and characteristics of designated location to determine installation suitability.
•
While digging the hole, soil should be firm to avoid collapsing due to erosion. If necessary, strengthen the sides of
the hole or make them smooth to prevent this.
•
If the ground is too hard to dig, it would be better to choose another location, or contact a groundwork
professional.
•
Verify if a high ground-water level does not contribute to a collection of water in the hole. In addition, verify there
is adequate drainage to dispose rain water.

5.2 Maintenance instructions
General maintenance instructions:
•
Inspect the BERG Trampoline before each use according to the installation instructions and replace
defective, worn or missing parts. Ignoring these instructions and failing to carry out maintenance could
lead to dangerous situations and unnecessary risks for the user. To order original BERG Trampoline parts
and accessories, please refer to your dealer or visit www.bergtoys.com.
•
Check the condition of the frame parts (broken welds, bent frame or sharp and protruding parts) and
replace them if necessary.
•
Check the condition of the springs (broken or excessive stretching) and the attachment of the springs
to the frame and jumping mat. The springs and the suspension system are subject to wear and tear;
replace worn parts in time.
•
Check that the bolt connections are tight and retighten them if necessary. Check that the connections
(pressure pins) are secure and check that they do not come loose when trampolining.
•
Check the condition of the jumping mat (damage, wrong tension, loose stitching or sagging of the mat).
The jumping mat will wear out through use and exposure to sunlight (UV radiation). Replace the jumping
mat in time when the condition of the mat starts to deteriorate.
•
Check the condition of the protective edge and its attachment to the frame. Replace a defective
protective edge.
•
Fertilisers (liquid fertiliser or fertiliser granules, etc) must not be used within a 2-metre radius of a BERG
Trampoline. The use of such products can be harmful to the trampoline materials.
•
The jumping mat and protective edge are easily cleaned with a cloth and some cold or lukewarm water.
Do not use solvents, detergent, soap powder or hot water under any circumstances.
•
Repairs must be carried out by a professional. Please consult your BERG dealer.
Regular maintenance instructions:
•
Strong winds and gusts can displace the trampoline. We recommend anchoring the trampoline with
stakes or sandbags, or removing the jumping mat prior to windy weather.
•
In some countries, the weight of the snow in winter and the very low temperatures can damage the
trampoline. BERG recommends storing the jumping mat and the safety net indoors in winter.
•
Ensure a secure and safe environment when the trampoline is not in use. Protect it against unauthorized
use. When a trampoline ladder is used, remove when left unattended. This to ensure no access for
children without supervision.
•
If the trampoline is not used for short periods of time and to avoid jump mat debris caused by fallen
leaves and twigs, BERG recommends usage of a BERG Weather Cover. When the trampoline is not used
for a longer period of time (e.g. during the winter) BERG recommends storing the trampoline, especially
the protective padding, in a dry area to support product longevity.
