when exposed to sustained wind or gusting wind
conditions. This can result in serious injury, paralysis, or
death, as well as property damage. To reduce these
risks, disassemble the trampoline and enclosure and
store them until weather conditions improve. Anchoring
a trampoline frame may prevent the trampoline from
moving as a result of the wind, but even anchored
trampolines can become airborne or damaged. Consult
a qualified contractor to determine what type of anchor
works best in your location.
3.3. Basic trampolining instructions
This trampoline is a domestic model, not a gymnastics
trampoline. You will get the safest and best use from it by
following these basic principles:
• Do not attempt or allow somersaults on the trampoline.
Landing on your head or neck while doing somersaults
can cause serious injury, paralysis or even death.
• Do not use the trampoline when wet. The mat will be
slippery and make landing less secure.
• Do not allow users to intentionally bounce into or over
the Safety Net, as this can unbalance the trampoline and
continual impact may damage the enclosure. Always
Jump in the middle of the mat.
• Do not use a trampoline while under the influence of
alcohol or drugs. Balance, perception and assessment of
risk will be affected and may lead to injury.
• Do not use the trampoline as a springboard to other
objects. Use the trampoline only for trampoline-style
bouncing.
• Focus your eyes on the edge of the trampoline. This will
help control your bounce.
• Stop your bounce by flexing your knees as your feet come
in contact with the trampoline bed. Learn this skill before
you attempt any others.
• Avoid bouncing too high. Stay low until you can control
your bounce and repeatedly land in the centre of the
trampoline.
• Do not bounce immediately after a meal.
• Limit the time of continuous usage.
