Trampoline Safety Warnings
Important Anchor Notice
We recommend that you anchor your trampoline. It is suggested the anchors be embedded at a minimum of 18 inches into the ground. There should also be tie straps from the anchor to the main circular frame. The specific type and number of anchors and the specific location for use, needs to be determined by a qualified, licensed engineer or contractor who has the knowledge and experience to have expertise in this area and can take account of local weather and ground or surface conditions. All anchors must be checked regularly and prior to each and every use. Having anchors alone will not prevent movement of a trampoline if there are sufficient winds in the area. If unusually high winds are expected, we strongly recommend you disassemble and securely store the trampoline until the threat of high winds is over.
The water anchors by Sportspower are now available at www.sportspowertrampolineparts.com. We recommend a minimum of 6 anchors to be used at a time in order to resist wind speeds up to 20 mph. As with any anchor they are not a Guarantee in preventing your product from moving.
