INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing a Sportspower product! This trampoline was designed and manufactured with quality materials and craftsmanship, providing fun and exercise in the enjoyment of your own backyard. It is very important that the owners and users of this trampoline have adequate knowledge of techniques and rules for proper use. In particular, children must be supervised at all times by a knowledgeable and mature adult while using the trampoline. Take precautions to prevent access to the trampoline by children when there is no adult supervision. Also restrict access to any unauthorized users without your consent. Carefully read and understand all of the instructions and warnings in the User Manual before assembling and using this product. It is the responsibility of the owner of this trampoline to ensure that all users of this product are fully informed on the proper use and the inherent risks of jumping on a trampoline. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death. In particular, under no circumstances should you attempt or allow flips, somersaults or any similar conduct. Landing on the head or neck can cause serious injury, paralysis, or death, even when landing in the middle of the mat. Also, do not allow more than one person on the trampoline under any circumstances. Use by more than one person at the same time increases the chance of injury. To reduce risks associated with users falling off the trampoline, enclosure netting must be properly installed and used at all times. The trampoline enclosure must be closed during use to prevent the user from falling off the trampoline. Your trampoline enclosure netting is manufactured with UV resistant material. Despite this, exposure to harsh elements (sunlight, wind, moisture, animals, etc) will weaken the netting. The netting and mat must be inspected prior to every use and maintained regularly as detailed in this User’s Manual. Please also ensure proper placement of this product to avoid injuries. It is essential that the intended site for this trampoline is completely flat and level. If the ground is uneven, this could cause movement in the frame and stress on the joined sections of the frame that could damage the trampoline and/or can cause serious injury. Do not position this trampoline on hard surface such as concrete, tarmac or paving. Suitable surfaces include flat dirt or grass, sand or play area covered with an appropriate depth of play bark material, with no obstructions above, below or near the product. The product must not be used in windy conditions as wind can cause unexpected movement of the product. Wind can cause the trampoline to be lifted off the ground and become airborne. This can present a danger to individuals and to property. Winds can be especially strong in open areas, foothills, mountains, locations subject to hurricanes and tornadoes, areas between homes that create wind tunnels and anywhere else where local weather conditions can create high winds. We recommend that you anchor the trampoline or otherwise secure the trampoline to prevent it from moving as a result of the wind. One possible way to anchor the trampoline is to secure the trampoline to a concrete footing under each leg. We recommend consulting a local licensed contractor to best determine how the anchor system should be constructed for your specific conditions. The licensed contractor can also advise you of other options such as below ground installation. Even with anchors, a trampoline can be lifted, just like anything else, by strong winds. If the winds are anticipated to be very strong, the trampoline should be disassembled and stored away safely until the weather conditions improve. Damage from the wind or other severe weather is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. Because the manufacturer warranty does not cover wind or weather related damage and damage can be caused to your property or the property of others by a windblown trampoline, it is strongly advised that you provide site specific anchoring through a licensed local contractor. Only genuine Sportspower replacement parts sold through our authorized dealer are recommended. Replacement parts from other sources may not have been designed, tested or manufactured to Sportspower standards. Because of this, Sportspower cannot guarantee the performance and safety of the product when non genuine replacement parts are used.

Take precautions to prevent access to the trampoline by children when there is no adult supervision. Restrict access to the trampoline by any unauthorized users without your consent. Trampolines are rebounding devices, which propel the user to unaccustomed heights, and into a variety of body movements. Rebounding off of the trampoline, striking the frame or springs, or improperly landing on the trampoline mat may cause serious injury. Always start and maintain your jump at the center of the trampoline mat in order to reduce the risk of landing on the frame or springs or falling off the trampoline. Avoid bouncing too high. Stay low until you can control your bounce and land consistently in the middle of the trampoline mat. Ensure the trampoline frame and springs are fully covered by the frame pad to avoid any direct contact with metal parts. Do not stand or jump on the springs while using the trampoline. The springs are not designed to support such stress and weight. This can result in serious injuries and/or product damage. If you see any signs of stretched or damaged springs, do not use the trampoline until replacement springs are properly installed. Please contact our customer service representatives to order original Sportspower replacement parts. The trampoline is several feet off the ground. Jumping off the trampoline to the ground or any other surface may result in injury. Smaller children may need assistance getting up onto or down from the trampoline. Mounting and dismounting properly should be followed as a strict rule. Users should climb onto the trampoline by placing their hands on the frame and stepping or rolling up onto the frame, across the springs and onto the mat. Do not step directly on the frame pad or grasp the frame pad when mounting or dismounting the trampoline. To dismount, jumpers should walk to the side of the mat, bend over and place their hands on the frame, then step from the mat to the ground. Users should always place their hands on the frame while mounting or dismounting. Do NOT use the trampoline as a springboard to jump onto other objects. Remove all objects not designed for use with the trampoline from the trampoline before use. Do not let children take toys or other items onto the trampoline. 4 IMPORTANT WARNINGS Use trampoline only with mature, knowledgeable adult supervision. Do not attempt or allow somersaults.

Do not use the trampoline while holding or wearing any type of sharp or pointed objects such as jewelry, watches, rings, eyewear and necklaces before using this product. This will prevent the jewelry from tearing the mat or getting caught in the enclosure netting. Do not wear loose fitting clothing that may catch or snag during play. Never wear footwear (e.g. shoes) when using the trampoline. Always tie back long hair so that it does not block user’s vision or get caught in the enclosure netting. FRAME PADS – Frame pads are there to protect user from any fall or landing on the springs and frame. On no account should people be permitted to sit or stand on them when the trampoline is in use. You should also make sure that smaller users do not use the inside edges of the pads as a “handle” when getting up on to the trampoline. Never use the trampoline without the frame pad being securely attached. Properly tie down the frame pad before each use. Improper assembly of the frame pad may lead to injury! Always check to ensure there are no obstructions or objects under the trampoline that could cause injury or obstruct movement of jump mat. Also check that there are no pets or other people underneath the trampoline. Do not jump on the trampoline with a snowboard, skateboard, roller blades, bicycle or any other equipment. DO NOT hold any foreign objects not authorized by the manufacturer in your hand and DO NOT place any objects on the trampoline while anyone is jumping on it. Please be aware of your surroundings to ensure there are no objects that could cause harm when you are playing on the trampoline. The frame of your trampoline is made of steel and it will conduct electricity. No electrical equipment (lights, heaters, extension cords, household appliances, etc.) should be permitted in or on the enclosure under any circumstances to avoid the risk of electrocution. Enclosure Netting and Mat – Appropriate Use Conditions Children MUST NEVER be left unattended inside the enclosure at any time. The enclosure is ONLY intended to be used to reduce the risk of injury from falling off the trampoline. Do not intentionally kick, bounce against, climb on, hang from, jump over or crawl under the netting. Enter and exit the enclosure only through the zipper door. Do not go through the gap between the netting and the mat. Trying to exit this way poses a risk of strangulation, especially for young children. The enclosure netting and mat must be inspected prior to each use. If there are any signs of weakness, you must stop using the trampoline immediately, properly store the trampoline and restrict access by users until a new Sportspower authorized replacement netting or pad is installed.

Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death. Responsibilities of the user The key here is to stay in control of your jumps. DO NOT move onto more complicated, more difficult maneuvers until you have mastered the basic, fundamental bounce. Read, understand, and practice all precautions and warnings prior to using the trampoline. A controlled jump is when you land and take off from the same location. For additional tips and instructions, contact a certified trampoline instructor. Supervisor’s or owner’s role in preventing injuries It is the responsibility of the supervisor(s) of the trampoline users to provide knowledgeable and mature supervision. They need to know and enforce all the rules and warnings set forth in this manual in order to minimize the likelihood of accidents and injuries and to inform users of these rules. During the periods of time when supervision is unavailable or inadequate, the trampoline should be disassembled and stored in a secure place to prevent unauthorized use. The supervisor is also responsible to ensure that the safety placard is placed on the trampoline and that the jumpers are informed of these warnings and instructions. All jumpers need to be supervised, regardless of skill level or age. DO NOT attempt or allow somersaults. Landing on the head or neck can cause serious injury, paralysis or death, even when landing in the middle of the mat. Do not allow more than one person on the trampoline. Use by more than one person at the same time can result in serious injuries. Trampolines over 20 inches (51 cm) tall should not be used by children under six (6) years of age. Wear clothing free of drawstrings, hooks, loops or anything that could get caught while using the trampoline/enclosure and result in entanglement or strangulation, or both. Climb on and off the trampoline. It is a dangerous practice to jump from the trampoline to the floor or ground when dismounting, or to jump onto the trampoline when mounting. Do not use the trampoline as a springboard to other objects. Keep enclosure tightly fastened to the trampoline in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Failure to properly assemble and maintain a tight, secure trampoline/enclosure boundary may result in serious injury, strangulation or death. Completely close the opening of the enclosure before jumping. Close the opening of the enclosure after using the trampoline. Do not use the trampoline while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Do not attempt to jump over the enclosure barrier. Do not intentionally rebound off the enclosure barrier. 23 PROPER USE INSTRUCTIONS Read and understand the use instructions in this manual prior to using this product. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death. Read all instructions before using the trampoline. Warnings and instructions for the care, maintenance and use of this trampoline are included to promote proper and enjoyable use of this equipment. Inspect the trampoline before each use. Make sure the frame padding, enclosure and the enclosure support (frame) padding is correctly and securely positioned. Replace any worn, defective or missing parts before using. Use trampoline only with mature, knowledgeable supervision. Check for loose cords and gaps. Users may become entangled in or strangled by loose cords or in gaps between trampoline and enclosure. Use trampoline only when the surface of the mat is dry. Wind or air movement should be calm to gentle. The trampoline must not be used in gusty or severe winds. Keep objects away which could interfere with the jumper. Maintain a clear area under, above, and around the trampoline. Do not attempt to crawl under the barrier. Do not hang from, kick, cut or climb on the barrier. Do not attach anything to the barrier that is not a manufacturer-approved accessory or part of the enclosure system. Enter and exit the enclosure only at the enclosure door. Learn fundamental bounces and body positions thoroughly before trying more advanced skills. A variety of trampoline activities can be carried out by performing the basic fundamentals in various series and combinations, performing one fundamental after another, with or without feet bounces between them. Stop bounce by flexing knees as feet come into contact with the trampoline mat. Learn this skill before attempting others. Avoid bouncing too high. Stay low until bounce control and repeated landing in the center of the trampoline can be accomplished. Control is more important than height while keeping the head erect, focus eyes on the trampoline toward the perimeter. This will help control the bounce. Avoid bouncing when tired. Keep turns short. Limit the time of continuous usage. Make regular stops. Do not jump when tired. Properly secure the trampoline when not in use. Protect it against unauthorized use. If a trampoline ladder is used, the supervisor should remove it from the trampoline when leaving the area to prevent unsupervised access by children under six (6) years of age. For information concerning skill training, contact a certified trampoline instructor. For additional information concerning the trampoline equipment, contact the manufacturer. 24 USE INSTRUCTIONS Learning the fundamental trampoline skills The following lessons are suggested for you to learn basic steps and bounces.

Practice Routine – Hands and Knees Bounce, Front Bounce, return to feet, Seat Bounce, return to feet, Seat Bounce, return to feet Lesson 4 A. Review and practice skills and techniques learned in previous lessons B. Half – Turn i.

During turn, be sure to keep back parallel to mat and head up iii. After completing turn, land in the Front Drop position After completing this lesson, the student now has a basic foundation of trampoline bounces. Jumpers should be encouraged to try and develop their own routines with the emphasis on control and form. A game that can be played in order to encourage students to try developing routines is “BOUNCE”. In this game, players count off from 1 to X. Player one starts with a maneuver. Player two has to do Player one’s maneuver and add on another. Each player must do the routine properly in the correct sequence. The first person to miss receives the letter “B”. This continues until someone spells out the word “BOUNCE”. The last remaining contestant is deemed the winner! Even when playing this game, it is important to perform your routines under control and not try difficult or highly skilled bounces that you have not yet mastered. A certified trampoline instructor should be contacted to further develop your trampoline skills. 25 USE INSTRUCTIONS BASIC TRAMPOLINE BOUNCES THE BASIC BOUNCE 1.
