We have put together a list of safety tips and advice which will help ensure your Oz Trampolines experience is safe, secure and fun. 1 Keep the area around your trampoline clear from any foreign objects. 8 2 Inspect the trampoline before each use and replace any worn or missing parts. Also ensure parts are safe and securely attached. 9 Place your trampoline on a level surface and well lit area, to ensure a safe and secure bounce. Ensure the trampoline is properly secure with the provided Anchor kit. 3 Supervise children and inexperienced jumpers at all times, taking extra care with younger children. 10 To ensure complete safety, particularly with little jumpers, ensure your safety net is used to help protect and avoid injury Do not allow any activity under the trampoline. The Pocket Surround will help keep children or pets from underneath the trampoline while someone is jumping. Enter and exit safely through the Safety net opening using the ladder provided. Bare feet are the best and safest way to jump on a trampoline mat as they provide grip and avoid slipping. Jumping in the middle of the trampoline is the best and safest place to bounce. 11 Always use safety padding on the frame to avoid injury. *Please note the owner and supervisors of the trampoline are responsible to make all users aware of practices specified in the safety tips. Care & Maintenance Regular care and maintenance of your trampoline is required you should check your trampoline once a month. This will help prolong its life and reduce the possibility of injury. Neglecting this can lead to a risk for users. 2

6 Frame Assembly Step 1 Step 4 To begin, lay out the frame parts and the T pieces as pictured. Place the T piece screws through the T piece and Framing and tighten with washer, nut and place the screw cap on the end. Step 2 Finished Stage Place the T pieces over the larger of the square Tubing. Repeat on each T piece until you have a completed oval. Hint: if hard to get on stretch the T pieces slightly outwards. Step 3 Handy Hint Place the smaller square tubing into the larger square tubing and T piece, covering the join so the holes line up. Leave a straight frame piece into a curved frame piece until last as it is easier to get into position. The last piece of the frame can be tight to get into place. Have a second person or use a wall to place some resistance on the frame to have it move into place. 6

each screw hole must be facing into the centre of the trampoline.

7 Frame Assembly (cont.) Legs: Step 1 Legs: Step 3 It is now time to put the legs together. Noting that each of the legs has a U shaped piece and two leg extensions. Slot each leg into the T pieces and secure with the t piece screws, washers, nuts and screw caps. Secure the inserted trampoline leg with the attached screws, noting that each screw hole must be facing into the centre of the trampoline. Legs: Step 2 Legs: Finished Stage Connect the U shaped piece to the leg extensions simply by slotting into place, and screw together securely. You now have your trampoline frame assembled. Well Done. 7

Tip: Do not do this stage too early to avoid problems attaching.

Then proceed to attach the spring to your mat at the opposite end of the frame 6 O Clock.

8 Mat Assembly Step 1 Step 4 Ensure that you have counted your springs and have the correct amount of springs for your trampoline. Also take note of the end of the spring which looks like the letter C. This is the end that hooks into your trampoline frame (check page 5 for details). Continue the process of attaching the springs to your mat at 2 O Clock, 8 O Clock, 4 O Clock and 10 O Clock. Ensure that each time you connect a spring to the mat you attach the opposite side which allows for better tension and pressure. Continuue in this fashion until all the springs have been added to the frame. Tip: Do not do this stage too early to avoid problems attaching. Step 2 Finished Stage Attach a spring to your trampoline mat at the top of the frame or 12 O Clock. Then proceed to attach the spring to your mat at the opposite end of the frame 6 O Clock. This technique for attaching allows for the best tension and safety. Continue to attach the springs at 3 O Clock and 9 O Clock. Again this helps to create the best tension on both the mat and the frame. Handy Hint: For ease of attaching the springs place one hand on the frame to pull the spring towards you and place in the slot in the frame. 8

Safety Pads Step 1 Finished Stage Lay your safety trampoline

9 Safety Pads Step 1 Finished Stage Lay your safety trampoline pads around the edges of your trampoline, ensuring the black loops are facing down. Place the pad tie through the black loop on the pads. Your trampoline will now look similar to the picture with attached safety pads. Great Job. Step 2 Loop the tie around the frame and loop the white head through the other end of the tie to secure it to the frame. Step 3 Slide the tie around the frame so the white head is positioned on the inside bottom of frame. 9

Safety Net Step 1 Step 3 Gather and join all of your safety poles together. These parts come in two pieces and click together as pictured.

Beginning with the sleeve closest to the zip opening, insert the pole into the net sleeve, one at a time.

Step 2 Step 4 Lay the trampoline safety net down on the trampoline ready to insert the safety poles.

10 Safety Net Step 1 Step 3 Gather and join all of your safety poles together. These parts come in two pieces and click together as pictured. Tip: If you are having trouble, gently bang the piece on the ground to ensure piece fits together securely. Beginning with the sleeve closest to the zip opening, insert the pole into the net sleeve, one at a time. Tip: When inserting the pole hold the pole and padding together to ensure the padding doesn t slide down for easy insert. Step 2 Step 4 Lay the trampoline safety net down on the trampoline ready to insert the safety poles. Tip: Line the net up with leg of the trampoline you wish to have the safety net opening at. Once all poles are connected, lean them on the trampoline at the points where the U shaped leg uprights are. This is how the poles connect to the trampoline. Once inserted, stand the pole up and clamp the pole to the U shaped upright leg, noting that the rounder edge of the clamp should face outwards. Each pole must be clamped with two clamps at the top and base of the pole as pictured. Tip: As you attach both clamps take care to ensure they are aligned with one another to avoid warping the safety poles. Tip: To streamline your assembly lay the two safety pole clamps at the base of each leg upright, for easy access when assembling. For oval trampolines the net opening will be on the long straight section of the frame. 10

Tip: As you tighten and clamp each pole, ensure the safety net/enclosure on either side of the pole is sitting below or underneath the edge of

This avoids the net being too tight to insert poles into sleeves. Continue clamping the sleeves to the poles one by one until complete.

11 Safety Net (cont.) Step 5 Step 7 Work your way around the trampoline, continuing to insert the next 3 poles into the safety net sleeves and then clamp to the corresponding U shaped leg upright. It is also a good idea to place the protective blue clips on the edges of the trampoline clamps, for a cleaner and safer finish. Tip: As you tighten and clamp each pole, ensure the safety net/enclosure on either side of the pole is sitting below or underneath the edge of the frame. Once you have assembled 3 poles with the netting, insert all of the remaining poles into the netting sleeves before clamping. This avoids the net being too tight to insert poles into sleeves. Continue clamping the sleeves to the poles one by one until complete. Finished Stage The trampoline safety pads should now look complete - great job!! Step 6 Once you have completed this and all poles are inserted into the safety net and clamped to the trampoline, attach the safety clips on the net to the underside of the trampoline. These clips are found on the bottom edge of the net and are simply clipped onto the triangle on the mat as pictured. Complete this for all safety clips. 11

Tip: Most customers prefer the pockets on the safety surround to be to the left or right side of the safety nets opening. Step 2 Ladder Hook your ladder over the trampoline frame, positioning it at the entrance of trampoline. Ensure that it is securely attached. Once attached it is now safe to use. Tie each tie to the corresponding leg in a clockwise direction. Starting with the tie at the upper part of the pole first and then at the base. 12

Tip: If you are unable to reach underneath the net edge, simply undo one of the clips holding on the trampoline net and then replace after fastening the weather cover. Anchor Kit Oz Trampolines newly designed anchor kits are designed to keep your trampoline grounded. Installation will take 5 minutes and you will need a hammer. Step 1 Step 2 Each anchor kit consists of a high quality steel peg and a leg clamp. Place the peg next to the middle of the trampoline leg and firstly wet the ground if dry, then either screw or hammer the peg into the ground until the loop at the top is level with the raised part of the leg. Then take the leg clamp and place around the leg and through the peg and tighten. Finished Stage You now have a completed weather cover to keep your trampoline safe during harsh weather conditions. 13

Tip: This step requires two people to ensure parts are attached safely and correctly. Firstly choose the position that you would like to place your basketball ring. Tip: We recommend placing it at least one pole away from the net opening to avoid collisions. Once a position is chosen, proceed to secure the U shaped bolts (approximately midpoint of the pole is the best place to start), around the existing netting and netting pole. Then (this is where a second person is required), proceed to place the basketball kit pole against the spacer and secure it with the nuts provided. Tip: This stage will require pressure from someone inside the netting and another person outside pushing against the clamp, to ensure the pole is attached securely. Repeat this process at the top of the netting and the base of the netting to ensure the basketball kit is securely attached. Backboard: Step 5 Backboard: Finished Stage Then secure the U shaped bolt by placing the black spacer over the top. Now you are finished simply inflate the basketball using the pump provided to start playing - have fun! 15
