3. ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
We recommend at least two people to assemble the trampoline. Use gloves to protect your hands from pinch points and
sharp points during assembly. Do not apply excessive force during assembly that will cause damage to the product.
The parts are made for assembly without screwing with a simple AkroClick system.
The frame of your trampoline is now assembled
and you can place it on the desired location.
Continue by joining the frame legs with the
frame parts – start with the frame part with
T-socket (as shown on the image). Make sure
the free part of the junction part is turned
to the outside of the frame circle. Continue
assembling the frame, alternating the frame
parts with and without sockets to form a circle.
Assembling the frame
Place the trampoline frame (Parts C, D and
E) flat on the ground.This way you will have a
better overview.
Place the leg extensions on the trampoline legs
(Part C into Part D).
Next,add the junction part to the leg extension
(Part D and Part E). The part with closed
bottom is the part where the safety net poles
will be set.

INSTALLATION AND USER MANUAL - STORMER PLUS
Lay the mat flat inside the frame. Make sure the
logo is facing upwards. In order to make the
installation of the jumping mat easier, locate the
four rings in the 12, 3, 6 and 9 o’clock position
directly opposite each other and attach four
springs on these locations first.Then continue by
attaching springs to every eighth ring, followed
by every fourth and so on until all springs are
attached.
At first, it may look like the mat won’t fit, it will
however stretch to the correct size when you
finish attaching all springs.
Fitting the mat and installing the springs

Attaching the frame pad
Lay the frame safety pad on top of the trampoline, aligning the pad section joints with the joints of the
frame and the eyelets facing up. Feed the elastic toggles through the eyelets so the loop end of the tie faces
outwards and the toggle end is on the inside.

Important:
The frame pad must cover the
entire frame and all springs.
Finally, attach the frame pad with the elastics.
Pull the elastic band around the frame, insert
the toggle into the loop,then rotate the toggle
inwards to secure it.Repeat with all frame pad
elastics.
Installation of the safety net
First,place the enclosure pole that is attached to
the net into the junction part. on the right from
the warnings sign on the frame pad.
Then start inserting the rest of the enclosure
poles into junction parts. Make sure you place
each enclosure pole first through the loop on
the bottom net edge then into the junction part.
Insert the fiberglass rods into the flaps on the
top edge of the safety net Push all the fiber glass
rods together and connect them into a ring.
Now push the obtained ring into the plastic caps on the
top of each enclosure pole into the position shown on the
picture below.

AKROBAT HINT:
Springs can be hard to attach, you will need a little force. Help
yourself by using one spring to pull another towards the frame
holes. Do not forget to wear gloves!
Important: Be sure all spring hooks
are well attached to the frame.
When flipping the frame pad over, align the pad
according to where the safety net entrance will
be placed:
The opening of the net should be positioned
between two trampoline legs and the frame pad
section with the warnings print should mark this
entrance. Before attaching the elastic toggles,
make sure the pad section joint at the enclosure
pole junction part is set about 1 cm to the left of
the junction part as shown on the picture.
9In order to fix the fiberglass rods in place, put
the velcro tape across the fiberglass and attach
it to the pole on the other side of the cap.

Cleaning the trampoline:
All Akrobat trampoline mats and frame pads are made of durable high-quality materials and should not be cleaned with
any aggressive cleaning products! Trampoline surfaces are best cleaned with mild soapy water and thoroughly rinsed
with water afterwards.
4. TRAMPOLINE MAINTENANCE
Check your trampoline before each season thoroughly – particularly the frame, frame pad, springs, jumping mat and
safety net.We advise regular check-ups during the season as well. In contrary, damaged parts could be overlooked,
which may result in severe accidents or injuries.
Your check list should include following points:
• All parts are well attached.
• All springs are well secured to the frame and the rings on the jumping mat.
• The trampoline has no damages, such as rips, holes, sharp, twisted or broken parts. If you notice any damage, change
the parts immediately.
• Check the safety net and the poles for potential damages and replace the safety net every 2 years.
For the best maintenance of your trampoline, also make sure no animals are allowed on the trampoline as they could
damage both the frame pad and the jumping mat.
The trampoline should be disassembled and withdrawn from use at once in case of any damage or missing parts until
the defects are repaired or parts replaced.
Extreme weather conditions can impact the trampoline materials, therefore follow these recommendations:
• Disassemble the safety net in case of strong wind and weigh the trampoline down.Store the safety net in a safe place.
• Remove the jumping mat during winter season as the weight of the snow could damage the mat.
• Protect the trampoline from direct heat, fire, sparks and fireworks.
• Protect your trampoline from heavy rain and snow as well.
PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL FOR LATER USE.
Remember, the trampoline should only be used by one person at the time!
User weight must not exceed:
10 ft / 305 cm 100 kg
12 ft / 366 cm 130 kg
14 ft / 427 cm 130 kg

5. TRAMPOLINE ACCESSORIES 6. JUMPING INSTRUCTIONS
Each jumper must start by learning slow and controlled jumps.Safe landings are the base of trampoline jumping skills and are
important to learn at the beginning. Lack of these skills may result in severe injuries and damage.
Both jumper and instructor should keep in mind that steady balance at each jump represent the base of successful trampoline
jumping.
The stopping technique is equally important as jumping. Correct stopping represents one of the most important
safety precautions in trampoline jumping.When losing control of the jump and/or balance the jumper has to react quickly to
prevent injuries. In order to achieve this, the jumper should simply bend their knees before landing on the jumping mat.This
is the safest way to stop the jump and prevent accidents.
While learning and training trampoline jumping, it is advised four persons stand around the trampoline in order to help the
jumper if needed.Trampoline jumping is a physical strain and shouldn’t last too long.A tired jumper can easily succumb to
errors in jumping thus highly increasing risk of injury.
High trampoline jumps are considered advanced jumps and should not be allowed to inexperienced jumpers. It is extremely
important to be sure that the height of the jump corresponds to the experience of the jumper.
PLEASE NOTE:
Beginners should learn the basic body positions and practice the basic bounces described in this manual.
To learn how to balance and jump, stand in the middle of the jumping area and bounce softly up and
down to control the movement. Increase the intensity gradually, returning to the same position on the
jumping mat with each bounce.
Focus on the jumping mat when jumping, failing to do so may quickly result in losing balance and falling.
Do not perform somersaults without supervision! Somersaults should be carried out only by experienced
jumpers under supervision of an expert and using appropriate safety measurements.

traction material used on the soles of the socks provides friction that reduces sliding and
can decrease the likelihood of accidents. In case of numerous users, the socks also help
control the spreading of microbes which can be exchanged between bare feet.
