Installation Instructions
Prior to any install ensure you have consulted with DIAL BEFORE YOU DIG on 1100 before any soil is
removed. Refer to page 18 & 19 of this manual for further explanation regarding trampoline pits. The
area where trampoline is to be placed should be flat and level with impact attenuating properties such
as grass.
Keep a minimum of 5m overhead clearance when measured from the bed height to prevent users
inadvertently contacting overhead hazards such as electric wires, tree limbs and clotheslines.
Maintain a minimum clearance of 1.5 m on all sides of the trampoline. This area should not include
concrete, bitumen, brick or other hard surfaces as these can cause serious injuries if users fall off the
trampoline.
Do not locate the trampoline on top of other objects or store anything underneath the trampoline bed.
NOTE: Children have been injured while bouncing on trampolines and landing on for example garden
tools, bicycles, etc.
Keep the area surrounding the trampoline clear. Place the trampoline away from walls, structures, fences
and other play areas.

Safety Information
Trampolines are great fun, encourage the development of gross motor skills; provide opportunities for
physical activity and present users with manageable challenges to find and test their limits. However, like
many physical activities, trampoline use involves potential risk of injury, particularly if the equipment is
used improperly.
Injury surveillance and hospital admissions data shows that trampolines feature frequently in injury
presentations and admissions. Children under 14 years of age account for about 90% of all trampoline-
related injuries. 28% of the trampoline-related injuries were sustained by children under five years of age
and more than a third of the injuries related to multi-users. (Victorian Injury Surveillance Unit—Hazard
75, Autumn 2013, pg. 3.)
The following points are important to note:
•Injury data indicates that people can be severely injured if they land on an unprotected trampoline
frame or springs or if they fall from the trampoline. Impact attenuation systems such as pads are
intended to minimize the risk of injury and enclosures are intended to stop people falling off the
trampoline.
•Ensure pads (where they are required) and enclosures are attached to the trampoline before use.
•The risk of injury increases when more than one person at a time bounces on a trampoline. Smaller
children are at increased risk when jumping with adults and/or larger children, for example, a
‘double bounce’ dramatically increases the energy transferred to the smaller body and children’s legs
have been broken and severe spinal injuries have occurred as a result.
•Ensure only one person at a time bounces on the trampoline.
•Children are oen unable to identify hazards and do not have a well-developed ability to assess risk
and may, if le unsupervised, be at more risk of injury.
•Always supervise children while they are using the trampoline.
•Over-confidence can lead to injury.
•Learn fundamental bounces first before trying more complex manoeuvres.
•Inappropriate clothing can cause injury.
•Clothing should allow plenty of body movement without flapping loosely and becoming a distraction
to the jumper.
•Wear clothing free of drawstrings, hooks, loops or anything that could get caught while using the
trampoline and result in entanglement or strangulation. Buckles, jewellery and belts should not be
worn, as these may damage the trampoline mat or cause injury to the jumper if they become caught
in the fabric of the trampoline. Shoes should be removed as they may damage the bed and increase
the risk of injury.
•Better design, good construction and improved safety features go a long way toward minimizing
the hazards associated with trampoline use; however, trampolines need to be used, cared for and
maintained appropriately to ensure the benefits of these features continue throughout the life of the
product.

8S002042 10 Inground Trampoline
Safe Use Instructions
To reduce the risk of injury while using the trampoline, develop household rules such as the following:
• Do not allow children under 6 years on the trampoline.
• Allow only one person on the trampoline at any one time.
• Active, competent supervision is essential—always supervise children while they are using the
trampoline.
• Ensure any pads (where they are required) covering the frame/suspension system are securely
attached at all times.
• Check the trampoline before use and ensure it is in good condition. Replace any worn or broken
parts. Use only parts that are recommended by the manufacturer.
• Make sure that the area around, underneath and above the trampoline is clear of objects that could
interfere with the person jumping. Do not allow children, pets, toys or other play equipment to be
present under the trampoline.
• Adults should model safe use of trampolines when children are present.
• Wear comfortable clothing that won’t become entangled in the trampoline’s components and
become a strangulation hazard. Do not wear jewellery or drawstrings/cords that can catch on the
trampoline and create a strangulation hazard. Remove shoes as they may damage the bed and
increase the risk of injury.
• Children should be educated by responsible adults to always climb on and off the trampoline, and
never jump or bounce off. It is dangerous practice to jump or bounce from the trampoline when
dismounting. Never use springs or suspension elements as ‘hand grips’ when getting on and off the
trampoline.
• Learn fundamental bounces and body positions thoroughly before trying more advanced
manoeuvers. A variety of trampoline activities can be carried out by performing the basic
fundamentals in various series and combinations, or performing one fundamental bounce after the
other, with or without bounces between them.

Basic Trampolining Instructions
This trampoline is a domestic trampoline, 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 sure.
• 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.

Step 6
Lay the Mat (1) out flat on the floor inside of the completed trampoline frame. Ensure that the side of
the Mat (1) with double stitching is facing downward, the warning label stitched into the mat should be
located on the top side of the mat.
To begin attaching the Mat (1) to the frame take 2 x Springs (8) and place these at opposite ends of the
Mat (1). Place the end of a Spring (8) with the narrow opening over the metal v-rings at the edge of the
mat and insert the opposite end of the Spring (8) with the wide opening into the groove on the Top Rail
(3). Repeat this for the other Spring (8) to even out the tension in the mat.
Take another 2 x Springs (8) and repeat the above instructions using the Spring Hook (10) so there are now
4 x Springs (8) connecting the Mat (1) to the Top Rails (3) at points ¼ of the way around the frame. Use
the remaining Springs (8) to connect the Mat (1) to the Top Rails (3) securing it into position.
NOTE: It is recommended that you connect a handful of Springs (8) on one side of the frame and
then connect the same number of Springs (8) to the opposite side of the frame. This will even out the
tension on the Springs (8) from the Mat (1) and make it easier to connect the last couple of springs.

Step 7
Attach 1 x Safety Instruction Placard (9) to the trampoline frame in a position that is easily visible. Thread
the included cable tie through the hole in the Safety Instruction Placard (9) and wrap it around the frame.
Lay the Frame Pad (2) over the trampoline so that the springs and frame are completely covered. Please
ensure that the small gaps in the Frame Pad (2) are aligned with the T-Joints (4) so the top of the
T-Joints (4) fit through the gap.
To secure the Frame Pad (2) to the trampoline, take the hook attached to the base of the Frame Pad (2)
and clip this to a v-ring that is two or three springs to the le of the strap.
WARNING: Do not position your face close to the strap as if you let go it can rebound at high speed
causing injury.
Repeat this for all hooks on the Frame Pad (2). There should be a few remaining pairs of straps on the
Frame Pad (2). Take each pair and wrap each side around the outside of the stitched material holding the
v-rings to the Mat (1). Tie a knot using a pair of the straps under the v-ring to finish securing the Frame
Pad (2) in place.

Soil Removal
While in ground trampolines are less obtrusive than regular trampolines, they do require a lot more work
at installation. It requires ongoing vigilance with regard to the pit and are more permanently located than
above ground trampolines.
WARNING: BEFORE YOU START DIGGING
Your in-ground trampoline will need to be dug to a depth of 1.2 m, YOU SHOULD contact ‘DIAL BEFORE
YOU DIG’ on 1100 during business hours, alternatively you can submit enquiries through their website
www.1100.com.au. The ‘DIAL BEFORE YOU DIG’ is a free national service designed to assist in
preventing damage and disruption to Australia’s vast infrastructure networks ie underground cables,
pipes & drainage pits. Rocks are another hazard which will make installation difficult.
Once you have clearance from ‘DIAL BEFORE YOU DIG’ our recommendations are as follows:-
We recommend using an excavator to dig your pit, even with 80% less soil requiring removal, the
remaining 20% is still a LOT of soil.
In-ground trampolines are not ideal in areas with sand or clay ground.
Poor drainage will allow stagnant water to pool in your trampoline pit, potentially creating health issues
and also rusting the trampoline.
While pumps or dug-in ag pipe drainage are the best solutions, it is not always practical to install. To
reduce risk of the above Action includes a rain cover for periods of heavy prolonged rain or non use (also
prolongs the trampoline mat and pad life) and instructions on building a low cost seep pit, (seep pit mat
included) to assist in dispersing water where pumps and ag pipe solutions are not available to the owner.

Soil Removal (cont.)
Reducing Rainwater Storage
To reduce rainwater from gathering in your trampoline pit, we have the following suggestions:
• Use the supplied trampoline cover during heavy or prolonged rain periods, this will also
serve to lengthen the life of the pads and mat.
• Install a pipe to drain away water
• Or use an electric pump or syphon to remove water after rain to empty the pit or dig a seep pit
Seep pit construction
Seep pits are commonly used in landscaping to assist with drainage, they will not be as effective as the
above methods, but they will help reduce freestanding water in the pit.
• In the centre of your pit dig another square hole 40 cm (L) x 40cm (B) x 60cm (H)
• Line the hole with the seep pit mat supplied with your trampoline
• Fill the hole with rock (porous) or broken house bricks
• Fold the extra long ends of the mat over the top of the rocks/bricks so they are now wrapped
by the mat
• Throw loose soil over the top of the hole onto the mat
Your pit is now complete, and its construction will help the water percolate to the ground more slowly
and during the summer, the rocks will retain heat and assist with evaporation. This method will be far
more effective if used in conjunction with the trampoline cover.
