Function Description:

The SWTC1500 is a recreational trampoline designed for outdoor use, equipped with a safety enclosure to prevent users from falling off. The trampoline provides a jumping surface for exercise and play, while the enclosure system enhances safety by containing jumpers within the designated area. The manual emphasizes the importance of proper assembly and securing the trampoline to prevent wind damage.

Important Technical Specifications:

Model: SWTC1500
Maximum User Weight: 200 lbs
Enclosure Height: A minimum of 24 feet (7.3 meters) from the ground is recommended for the enclosure clearance.
Springs: The trampoline uses springs to provide the bounce. The assembly instructions detail attaching 96 springs to the jump mat and frame.
Frame: The frame consists of Top Tubes with T-joints, Top Tubes with Sockets, Leg extensions, and Braces, forming a robust hexagonal structure.
Jump Mat: The jumping surface is secured to the frame with springs.
Frame Pad: A protective pad covers the springs and frame to prevent injuries.
Enclosure System: Comprises Straight Tubes, Curved Tubes, Pole Caps, M5x50mm Bolts, Mesh with straps, and Foam. The enclosure poles are high, and the mesh forms a barrier around the jumping area.
Tools: A spring tool is included for spring attachment. A screw driver is also listed as a part.

Usage Features:

Assembly: The manual provides detailed, step-by-step instructions for assembling both the trampoline and the enclosure. This includes attaching frame components, securing the jump mat with springs, installing the frame pad, and setting up the enclosure poles and netting.
Safety Enclosure: The enclosure is a key safety feature, designed to keep jumpers on the mat. The door opening of the enclosure netting must be centered between two legs of the trampoline for easy access.
Wind Susceptibility: Trampolines and enclosures are susceptible to winds. Users are advised to secure their trampoline and enclosure to prevent wind damage, which is not covered by the warranty.
User Precautions: Users are instructed to read all precautions and instructions before use. Only one person should use the trampoline at a time, with a maximum user weight of 200 lbs. Barefoot use or wearing athletic shoes is recommended; street shoes or tennis shoes should not be worn. Sharp objects should be avoided.
Supervision: Children should always be supervised by an adult when using the trampoline.
Placement: The trampoline should be placed on a level surface, away from walls, structures, fences, and other play areas. Adequate overhead clearance is essential. The trampoline should not be used in a dimly lit area or where artificial lighting is needed.
Disassembly: Instructions are provided for disassembling both the trampoline and the enclosure in reverse order of assembly. Gloves are recommended to protect hands from pinch points during disassembly.

Maintenance Features:

Regular Inspection: Users are advised to inspect the trampoline and enclosure regularly for any damaged, missing, or improperly positioned parts. This includes checking the frame, padding, netting, enclosure tubes, foam sleeves, punctures, tears, holes, springs, and broken or missing parts.
Storage: For longer fabric life, the enclosure should be stored when not in use. During harsh weather conditions or prolonged periods of non-use, the trampoline should be disassembled and stored.
Cleaning: The manual implies the need for cleaning by mentioning the importance of maintaining the trampoline's quality and appearance.
Wind Damage Prevention: Securing the trampoline and enclosure against wind is a critical maintenance step to prevent damage.
Replacement Parts: The manual includes exploded drawings and parts lists for both the trampoline and enclosure, along with instructions on how to order replacement parts. This includes contacting Skywalker Trampolines via phone or website, providing the model, key number, description of the part, quantity needed, and desired method of shipping.
Rust Prevention: While not explicitly detailed, the mention of "prolonged periods of non-use" suggests that proper storage can help prevent rust or other weather-related wear.
Safety Placard: The safety placard should be attached to the frame near the point where jumpers will climb onto and off the trampoline, ensuring it is visible for users.
