Usage Features
The manual outlines several important usage features and safety guidelines to ensure a safe experience:
- Installation: The trampoline requires a hole to be dug in the ground for secure installation, especially if the ground is not firm. Professional assistance is recommended for ground preparation. The hole should not accumulate water.
- Placement: The trampoline must be placed on a flat, stable surface, free from wires, branches, or other obstructions. A minimum of 7.3 meters of headroom above the mat and 2 meters of clear space horizontally in all directions from the edge of the trampoline is required. It should not be placed on hard surfaces like tiles, concrete, asphalt, or the like.
- Supervision: Children should always be under adult supervision when using the trampoline.
- Weight Limit: Adhere strictly to the maximum user weight of 150 kg.
- Single User: Only one person should be on the trampoline at a time to prevent collisions and injuries.
- Clothing: Users should wear a t-shirt and shorts/tracksuit trousers and have bare feet or soft-soled plimsolls. First-timers should wear long-sleeved clothes to avoid grazes.
- Prohibited Activities: Do not use the trampoline in strong wind, do not sink your head or neck into the ground, do not perform jumps that may increase the risk of injury, do not use it for purposes other than trampolining, and do not jump over other objects.
- Safety Net: Always keep the safety pad covering the frame. Always close the safety net before starting to jump.
- Empty Pockets: Empty pockets before jumping to avoid having anything in your hands while jumping.
- Food and Drink: Do not eat while jumping.
- Rest: Do not get off the trampoline by jumping off it. Do not jump for too long at a time; take regular breaks.
- Basic Jumps: The manual describes basic jumps such as basic jump (starting from a standing position, swinging arms forward, keeping feet together), knee jumps (landing on knees, bouncing back to basic position), sitting jump (landing on mat in a sitting position, placing hands on mat either side of hips), stomach jumps (jumping forwards, landing on stomach with face down, holding arms stretched in front), and 180° jump (performing a stomach jump but pushing downwards with one hand, turning 180 degrees).
- Advanced Jumps: For more advanced jumps, users must first be able to perform all basic jumps under full control. Contact a trained instructor for lessons in advanced jumps.
Maintenance Features
Regular maintenance is crucial for the trampoline's longevity and safety:
- Seasonal Inspection: The trampoline's various parts must be inspected before every season and regularly during the season. If the trampoline is not inspected, it can be dangerous to use.
- Check for Damage: Regularly check for punctures, holes, or tears in the mat, safety pads, or safety net. Inspect for loose stitching or stretching in the mat, bent or broken frame parts or springs, defective or missing bindings around the safety pad, sharp edges on springs, frame, or mat, and a faulty safety net.
- Replacement of Parts: Replace any defective parts before using the trampoline again. Check regularly that all screws, bolts, and nuts are tightened properly and tighten them if necessary. Check that all spring-loaded joints are intact and cannot loosen during use.
- Springs and Covers: Check that all covers are in place and intact, and that there are no sharp edges exposed. Make sure that Velcro fastenings are closed correctly when the trampoline is in use.
- Cleaning: Clean the mat using domestic detergent if it is dirty. Store the mat, safety pads, and safety net in a dry, cool place indoors during the winter to avoid frost and moisture damage. Be aware that sun, rain, snow, and extreme temperatures can shorten the life of various parts.
- Safety Net Replacement: Replace the safety net every two years.
- Moving the Trampoline: Disassemble the trampoline if moving over long distances. For moving short distances, use two people to lift the trampoline clear of the ground and carry it horizontally. Joints can be secured using gaffer tape or the like.
