ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 5 - Spring Loading Instructions (cont.)
Attach a spring at every 3 holes and corresponding triangle-
rings. For even distribution of tension and ease of assembly,
springs should be placed on opposite side of the mat/
frame...i.e. 3 then 21, 33 then 15, etc. In addition to the
previously installed springs, you should have springs at 3, 9,
15, 21, 27 and 33 as shown.
If you notice that you have miscounted a hole and triangle-ring
connection, recount and remove or attach any springs required to
maintain the count of springs.
Then attach the remaining 18 springs by using the same theory of
counting equal holes as shown.

TIPS TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ACCIDENTS
All jumpers need to be supervised, regardless of skill level or age.
Jumpers role in accident prevention:
The key here is to stay in control of your jumps. DO NOT move onto
cult maneuvers until you have mastered
the basic, fundamental bounce. Education is also key to safety and very
important. Read, understand, and practice all safety precautions and
warnings prior to using the trampoline. A controlled jump is when you
from the same location. For additional safety tips and
ed trampoline instructor.
Supervisor’s or owner’s role in accident prevention:
Supervisor’s need to understand and enforce all safety rules and
guidelines. It is the responsibility of the supervisor to provide
knowledgeable advice and guidance to all jumpers on the trampoline.
If supervision is unavailable or inadequate, the trampoline should be
stored in a secure place, disassembled to prevent unauthorized use,
or covered with a heavy tarp that can be locked or secured with locks
or chains.

•
A controlled jump is when you land at the same spot that you
from. lf at any time you feel out of control, try to stop your
bouncing.
•
Do not jump or bounce for prolonged periods of time or too high
for a number of jumps.
•
Keep your eyes on the mat to maintain control. If you do not, you
could lose balance or control.
•
Never have more than one person on the trampoline at any one
time
•
Always have a supervisor watching you when you are on the
trampoline
SUPERVISORS
•
Educate yourself with the basic jumps and safety rules. To prevent
and reduce the risk of injuries, enforce all safety rules and ensure
that new jumpers learn the basic bounces before trying more
cult and advanced jumps
.
•
All jumpers need to be supervised, regardless of skill level or age

•
Never use the trampoline when it is wet, damaged, dirty, or wom
out. The trampoline should be inspected before any jumpers start

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - LESSONS
LESSONS
The following lessons are suggested in order to learn basic steps and
cult, complicated bounces.
Before actually getting on and using the trampoline, you should read
and understand all safety instructions. A complete discussion and
demonstration of body mechanics and trampoline guidelines should
occur between the supervisor and student as well.
Lesson 1
A. Mounting and Dismounting - Demonstration of proper techniques.
B. The Basic Bounce-Demonstration and practice.
C. Braking (Check the Bounce-Demonstration) and practice. Learn to
brake on command.

Lesson 2
A. Review and practice of techniques learned in Lesson 1.
B. Knee Bounce-Demonstration and practice. Learn the basic, down
to knee and back up before trying half twist to the left and right.
C. Seat Bounce-Demonstration and practice. Learn the basic, seat
bounce then add a knee bounce, hands and knees; repeat.
Lesson 3
A. Review and practice skills and techniques learned in previous
lessons
B. Front Drop-To avoid mat burns and teach the front bounce
position. All students should be requested to assume the prone
position (face down on the ground) while the instructor checks for
faulty positions that could cause injury.
C. Start with a hands and knees bounce and then extend body into
prone position, and on the mat and return to feet.
D. Practice Routine Hands and knees Bounce, Front Bounce, back to
feel, Seat Bounce, back to feet, Seat Bounce, back to feel.
Lesson 4
A. Review and practice skills and techniques learned in previous
lessons.
B. Half-turn
•
Start from front drop position and as you make contact with
with arms in either the right or left direction and
turn head and shoulders in same direction.
•
During turn, be sure to keep back parallel to mat and head up.
•
After completing turn, land in 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.

CAUTION
Re-insert a foam tube over each straight frame tube (I). All
straight frame tubes must have foam around them.
Tight fit
Secure the tubes of the arch together
using a self locking screw (M). Tighten
with screwdriver.
Repeat assembly for the other 2 arch frames.
Connect curve frame tubes (J) into the straight frame
tubes (I).
Assemble horizontal tube with foam (H) with two curved
frame tubes with foam (J).
Make sure
