INFORMATION ON USE OF THE TRAMPOLINE

Initially, you should get accustomed to the feel and bounce of the trampoline. The focus must be on the fundamentals of your body position and you should practice each bounce (the basic bounces) until you can perform each skill with ease and control.

  • To break a bounce, all you need to do is flex your knees before they come in contact with the jump mat. This is a basic technique and should be practised while you are learning each of the basic bounces. The skill of ‘braking’ should be used whenever you lose balance or control of a manoeuvre, or if you are just learning how to jump on a trampoline. Failure to use the ‘braking’ manoeuvre will increase your risk of getting injured by landing on the frame, springs or off the trampoline completely should you lose control of your jump. A controlled jump is considered landing on the same spot that you took off from. If you do lose control when you are jumping on the trampoline, use the ‘braking’ manoeuvre when you land and this will allow you to regain control and stop your jump.
  • Somersaults (Flips): We recommend that you DO NOT PERFORM somersaults of any type (backwards or forwards) on this trampoline. If you make a mistake when trying to perform a somersault, you could land on your head or neck and cause serious injury to yourself.
  • Foreign Objects: DO NOT use the trampoline if there are pets, other people, or any objects beneath the trampoline. This will increase the chances of an injury occurring. DO NOT hold any foreign objects in your hand and DO NOT place any objects on the trampoline while anyone is using it. Please be aware of what is overhead when you are using the trampoline. Tree limbs, wires, or other objects located over the trampoline will increase the chance of injuries occurring.
  • Number of People on the Trampoline: No more than one person should use the trampoline at any one time. Having more than one person on the trampoline at the same time can increase the risk of injury.
  • Poor Maintenance of Trampoline: A trampoline in poor condition will increase the risk of injuries. Please inspect the trampoline before each use for bent steel tubes, torn mats, loose or broken springs, and overall stability of the trampoline.
  • Location of the Trampoline: The trampoline must always be set up and used on a level surface. Failure to use the trampoline on a level surface can increase the chance of injury and/or damage to the trampoline.
  • Weather Conditions: Please be aware of the weather conditions when using the trampoline. If the mat of the trampoline is wet, the jumper could slip and injure him or herself. High winds can also cause jumpers to lose control.
  • Limiting Access: When the trampoline is not in use, always store the access ladder in a secure place so that unsupervised children cannot play on the trampoline.

TIPS TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ACCIDENTS

Jumper:

  • The key to avoiding accidents is to stay in control of your jumps. DO NOT move onto more complicated, more difficult manoeuvres 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 before using the trampoline. A controlled jump is when you land and take off from the same location. For additional safety tips and instructions, contact a certified trampoline instructor.

Supervisor:
When supervising other users of the trampoline, supervisors 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 of the trampoline. If supervision is unavailable or inadequate, the trampoline could be stored in a secure place, disassembled to prevent unauthorized use, or covered with a heavy tarpaulin that can be locked or secured with lock or chains. The supervisor is also responsible for ensuring that the safety placard is placed on the trampoline and that jumpers are informed of these warnings and instructions.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

JUMPERS:

  • Do not use a trampoline if you have consumed alcohol or any drugs.
  • Remove all hard sharp objects from your person before using a trampoline.
  • You should climb on and off in a controlled and careful manner. Never jump onto or off the trampoline and never use the trampoline as a device to bounce onto or into another object
  • Always learn the basic bounce and master each type of bounce before trying more difficult types of bounces. Review the basic skills section to learn how to do the basics.
  • To stop your bounce, flex your knees when you land on the jump mat.
  • Always be in control when you are bouncing on the trampoline. A controlled jump is when you land at the same spot that you took off from. If at any time you feel out of control, try to stop your bouncing.
  • Do not jump or bounce for prolonged periods or too high for several consecutive jumps.
  • Keep your eyes on the mat to maintain control.
  • Never have more than 1 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 difficult and advanced jumps.
  • All jumpers should be supervised, regardless of skill level or age.
  • Never use the trampoline when it is wet, damaged, dirty, or worn. The trampoline should always be inspected for signs of wear before use.
  • Keep all objects that could interfere with the jumper away from the trampoline. Be aware of what is overhead, underneath, and around the trampoline.
  • To prevent unsupervised and unauthorized use, the trampoline should be secured when not in use.

General Safety:
Do not bounce on the trampoline for extended periods because fatigue can increase your chances of becoming injured. Bounce for a brief period and then allow others to join in on the fun! Never have more than one person bouncing on the trampoline.

Jumpers should wear a t-shirt, shorts or sweats, and regulation gymnastics shoes, heavy socks, or be barefoot. If you are just beginning, you may want to wear long-sleeved shirts and pants to protect against scrapes and abrasions until you master the correct landing positions and form. Do not wear sole shoes, such as tennis shoes, on the trampoline as this will cause excessive wear on the mat material. You should always mount and dismount properly to avoid injury. To mount properly, you should PLACE your hand on the frame and either step or roll up onto the frame, over the springs, and onto the trampoline mat. You should always remember to place your hands on the frame while mounting or dismounting. Do not step directly onto the frame pad or grasp the frame pad. To dismount properly, move over to the side of the trampoline place your hand onto the frame as a support and step from the mat to the ground. Smaller children should be assisted when mounting and dismounting the trampoline.

Do not bounce recklessly on the trampoline since this will increase your chances of getting injured. The key to safety and having fun on the trampoline is controlling and mastering the various bounces. Never try to out-bounce another bouncer in terms of height! Never use the trampoline alone without supervision.

TRAMPOLINE PLACEMENT

The minimum overhead clearance required is 24 feet (7.3 meters). In terms of horizontal clearance, please ensure that no hazardous objects are near the trampoline such as tree limbs, other recreational objects (i.e. swing sets, swimming pools), electrical power wiring, walls, fences, etc. For safe use of the trampoline, please be aware of the following when selecting a place for your trampoline:

  • The trampoline MUST be placed on a level surface for use.
  • The area should be well-lit.
  • Make sure there are no obstructions beneath, above or around the trampoline.

ACCIDENT CLASSIFICATION

  • Mounting and Dismounting: Be very careful when getting on and off the trampoline. DO NOT mount the trampoline by grabbing the frame pad, stepping onto the springs or jumping onto the mat of the trampoline from an object (e.g. a deck, roof, or ladder). This will increase your chances of getting injured! DO NOT dismount by jumping off the trampoline and landing on the ground, regardless of the makeup of the ground. If small children are playing on the trampoline, they may need help in mounting and dismounting.
  • Use of Alcohol or Drugs: DO NOT consume alcohol or drugs when using this trampoline! This will increase your chances of getting injured since these foreign substances impair your judgments, reaction time, and overall physical coordination.
  • Multiple jumpers: If you have multiple jumpers (more than one person on the trampoline at any time), you increase the chance of getting injured. Injuries could occur when you fly off the trampoline, lose control, collide with the other jumper(s), or land on the springs.
  • Generally, the lightest person on the trampoline will get injured.
  • Striking the Frame of springs: When playing on the trampoline, STAY in the centre of the mat. This will reduce your risk of getting injured by landing on the frame of the springs. Always keep the frame pad covering the frame of the trampoline. DO NOT jump or step onto the frame pad directly since it was not intended to support the weight of a person.
  • Loss of Control: DO NOT try difficult manoeuvre, of any manoeuvre until you have mastered it. If you do not follow these guidelines, you increase the risk of someone getting injured.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTION

FRAME ASSEMBLY

WARNING!
Set up the trampoline in its final location! After complete set-up, DO NOT MOVE the trampoline after assembly! Make sure the ground is level at the setup location otherwise the tension of the springs might deform the frame.

We Recommend:
The Trampoline MUST be set up on a grassed area only. Not suitable on concrete or other hard surfaces.

WARNING:
2-3 adults in good physical condition are required for the following assembly. You MUST wear closed-in shoes and gloves. Make sure the area around the assembly area is clear of any hazards which may cause a fall or loss of balance. Failure to follow all instructions and warnings exactly may result in serious injury.

Lay out all trampoline and safety net parts in groups. Check, before assembly, that all parts are complete according to the parts list.

| Place the bed frame tubes with the steel hook slits facing upwards and the two different kinds of “T” connectors (5 & 6) alternately. Connect frame tubes with the “T” connectors as shown.

NOTE:

*The two ends of the frame tube are different. One end is smaller, the other is bigger. To make it easy to assemble, first, insert the frame tube’s bigger end into the T connector, then insert the small end of another frame tube into the same T connector.

*The welded tube of the “T” connector must face outside.

---|---




| Connect the leg extension with the base leg. Make sure the pin is locked.

Put all leg tubes inside the frame tubes to line up with the “T” connector. The locking pin faces upwards.

| Lift the frame tube on one side and insert the leg tube into the “T” connector. Repeat this step around the circumference of the trampoline.
---|---
| Attach the smaller opening end of each steel hook to a loop of the elastic net except for one overlap part where one hook connects two loops only at this part. Please make sure that the hooks face downwards.

Lay the bounce mat inside the frame. Make sure the side with the logo is facing upwards.

| Choose two pieces of steel that are next to the blue dot, and attach the larger opening end of the hooks to the holes of the frame tube beside the corresponding “T” connector by the steel hook tool. Make sure the blue dot faces the “T” connector. Then attach the steel hooks on the opposite side. Repeat to attach steel hooks beside each T connector diagonally.

To make assembly easier we suggest that when one adult attaches the steel hooks another adult helps fix the frame aside to avoid the trampoline move and attach the steel hooks at the same time by another steel hook tool.

| Repeat to attach steel hooks at intervals and evenly.

Attach all remaining steel hooks evenly.

WARNING:
To attach the hooks securely please use the provided steel hook tool and wear gloves to protect your hands. The trampoline is under heavy tension, more effort is required to attach the steel hooks to the frame. Be careful not to pinch fingers or slip. Serious injury may occur.

---|---
| Lay the safety pad around on the edge of the trampoline only with flaps hanging over the outside frame, then stick the velcro together at both ends of the pad. Adjust the pad placement and make sure the seam of the pad skirt with velcro is aligned to the “T” connector with the welded tube.

Stick the velcro outside the welded tube of the “T” connector.

Put the elastic belts (under the pad) through the elastic mesh then tie them tightly.

Tie all black straps under the safety pad to the frame tubes.

| Connect each upper enclosure pole and lower enclosure pole by locking a pin.

Cover the entire pole with a sleeve.

| Insert the complete enclosure poles into the welded tubes of the “T” connector and fix the y locking pin.
---|---
| Stand on the bounce mat, then pick up the top of the safety net and hang the sewed webbing to the black caps of the upper enclosure pole one by one.

Make sure the entrance of the safety net is between the enclosure pole and in the middle.

| Find plastic hooks at the bottom of the safety net and hang them into the back of the elastic mesh.
| Congratulations on your Lejump Trampoline! Enjoy it!

LADDER ASSEMBLY

LeJump-427cm-Flora-Trampoline-Fig- \(16\)

Lay out all ladder parts in groups. Check, before assembly, that all parts are complete as shown in the picture.

| Insert one steel tube into the hole of the plastic plate to the top of the hole on the steel tube.

Make sure the steel tube’s hook faces inside and the plastic plate’s mesh faces upwards. The plastic plate is not flat, you need to keep the lower side of the plastic plate towards the outside and keep the higher side of the plastic plate towards the inside.

---|---
| Insert another steel tube into the other end of the plastic plate’s hole. Keep the hole of the plastic plate in alignment with the steel tube’s hole. Fasten them with attached screws and bolts. Self-locking bolts are only used for the unique construction.
| Attach the second plastic plate with the same method. Now the ladder is ready to use.

WARNING

  • The ladder lets young children climb onto the trampoline.
  • Do not use a ladder if children under 6 might be nearby.
  • Remove the ladder when the trampoline is not in use to prevent access by children under 6.

LESSON PLAN

The following lessons are suggested to learn basic steps and bounces before moving on to more difficult, 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

  • Mounting and Dismounting – Demonstration of proper techniques
  • The Basic Bounce- Demonstration and practice
  • Braking (Check the Bounce)-Demonstration and practice. Learn to brake on command
  • Hands and knees-Demonstration and practice. Stress should be on four-point landing and alignment

Lesson 2

  • Review and practice of techniques learned in Lesson 1
  • Knee Bounce –Demonstration and practice. Learn the basic down-to-knee and back-up before trying half twist to left and right
  • Seat bounce –Demonstration and practice. Learn basic seat bounce then add a knee bounce, hands and knees; repeat

Lesson 3

  • Review and practice skills and techniques learned in previous lessons
  • 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.
  • Start with a hands and knees bounce and then extend your body into a prone position, land on the mat and return to feet
  • Practice Routine-Hands and knees Bounce, Front Bounce, back to feet, seat bounce, back to feet

Lesson 4

  • Review and practice skills and techniques learned in previous lessons
  • Half-Turn
    1. Start from the front drop position and as you make contact with the mat, push off with arms in either the right or left direction and turn your head and shoulders in the same direction.
    2. During a turn, be sure to keep back parallel to the mat and head up.
    3. After completing the 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 routines with the emphasis on control and form A game that can be played to encourage students to try and develop routines is “BOUNCE”. In this game, the player counts off from 1 to X. Player starts with a maneuver. Player two has to do Player One’s maneuver and add on another. Player Three does the maneuvers of One and Two and then adds a third maneuver. This continues until a player cannot do the routine 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.
