AERIAL HOOP USER GUIDE
Introduction
Safety is paramount in the use of the Aerial Hoop. These instructions are to be used as a guide and are not a complete list of safety
practices. These instructions are designed to provide you with general safety information and considerations before the use of the
aerial hoop.
Equipment Check:
Inspect the Hoop for any defects, damage or wear and tear. Regular inspections are recommended, that being daily before use
and a thorough inspection weekly. Check for cracks, bending, loose components and any other defects.
Inspect the Rigging to ensure all carabiners, swivels, and other rigging components are in good condition and there are no signs
of wear and tear. Check the supporting bar and frame that the Aeriel Hoop is hanging from.
Inspect the Connection/Connectors and verify that the Aerial Hoop is securely attached to the rigging point. Cease use immedi-
ately if any signs of defects are found. Replace any equipment that shows signs of wear and tear.
Check List
• Any cracks on the metal components. Pay attention to areas around welded joints.
• Any cracks on the plastic grips.
• Changes in the overall shape to the apparatus.
• Rusting or corrosion of the metal components.
• Check the carabiner for any damage to the thread, gate or overall shape.
• Check connections are tight and securely attached.
• Any loose fittings
• Use the push pull test to check stability of the overall structure.
Maintenance:
In addition to daily checks, regular maintenance is required to ensure the continued safe use of the Aerial Hoop. It is recommend-
ed that a weekly overall check is done on the Aerial Hoop and surrounding equipment. Do not allow the Aerial Hoop to get wet
or leave outside in extreme weather conditions.

After Use and Storage
After each use, take down the Aerial hoop and place inside, in a secure area. This ensures that others who may not be trained or
authorised do not attempt to install and use this equipment. For storage, carefully disassemble and store the aerial hoop in a
designated secure area. This ensures that others, particularly those who may not be trained or authorised, do not have access to
it.
Clean the Aerial Hoop and equipment if it becomes dirty. Wipe the equipment with a damp cloth and allow it to thoroughly dry.
When the Aerial Hoop is in storage, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or harsh weather conditions. Proper
storage extends the life of the equipment and helps maintain its integrity.
