ACCIDENT
WARNING
CLASSIFICATION & IDENTIFICATION
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 by jumping onto the mat of the trampoline from an
object(eg. A deck, roof ,or ladder ).This is considered highly
dangerous. DO NOT dismount by jumping off the trampoline and
landing on 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 any alcohol or take any drugs (this includes
medication that could affect the users co-ordination) when using
this trampoline. This is considered highly dangerous since these
foreign substances impair your judgements, reaction time and
overall physical co-ordination.
MULTIPLE USERS:
If you have multiple users (more than one person on the
trampoline at any one time), you increase the chance of being
injured. Injuries can occur when you fly off the trampoline, lose
control, collide with other jumper(s), or land on the springs .
STRI KING THE SPRING FRAME:
When playing on the trampoline, STAY in the centre of the
trampoline mat. This will reduce the risk of being injured by
landing on the spring frame. Always keep the frame pads
covering the frame of the trampoline. DO NOT jump or step onto
the frame pad directly since it is not intended to support the
weight of a person.
LOSS OF CONTROL:
DO NOT try difficult maneuvres until you have mastered the
basics. If you do not follow these guidelines, you increase the
risk of someone being injured.
