Jumping Castle Instructions
IMPORTANT
Children must not be allowed near the motor.
If an electrical extension is used it must be a triple wired , earthed cord
Do not cover motor with bag or tight material – it needs air
Do not leave motor in rain/water – it’s an electrical appliance
Do not switch the motor on and off
Castle should be at least 1 meter away from walls or objects that can damage the castle – PS clients pay for damages
No pets, shoes, sharp objects streamers or food allowed on the castle
No adults allowed on the jumping castles – it will damage as it is not made for above 80 kg.
Adults are only allowed on slip slides
The air pipe feeds the air to the castle.
It needs to be securely attached to the motor so air does not escape
The pipe must not be bend or twisted – this will restrict airflow to the castle.
Setting up the castle
Put the castle where you intend to use it
Roll the castle out of the bag and look for the air pipe (long PVC pipe, at the back or on the side of the castle)
Attach the motor to the air pipe and fasten tight. The motor must be upright – standing on its “leg”
Attach extension to motor – must be a tripled wired, earthed cord
Plug extension directly into the power source and switch on electricity
The motor needs to run continuously for the castle to stay inflated.
Folding the castle
Remove motor from the castle.
Straighten the air pipe and hold so that the air can escape (tip: let someone walk on the castle and the air will escape faster
Most castles with a pond have a short air pipe underneath the pond. Open this air pipe as well
Fold all loose parts to the inside
Fold castle in such a way that it ends up narrow and long. (same width as the bag)
Put bag underneath castle on the one side and roll the castle tightly towards the bag.
Once inside the bag close with the attached ropes.
Troubleshooting Motor
Electricity keep on tripping when motor is switched on.
Motor starts but cut out
Do the following to eliminate possible causes/solve the problem:
Take motor and plug directly into power source (no extension or other plugs) – if still problem
Take motor to another power source and plug in
Plug motor into power source – ensure that no other appliances use the same plug/line.
If you do use an extension ensure that the extension is a tripled wired, earthed cord, not longer than 15m
Jumping Castle
Jumping castle not stiff:
Check that the air pipe is attached tight to the motor – no air escaping
Check that the pipe underneath the pond is closed properly
Ensure that air pipe is straight with no obstructions
It is normal that bubbles and air escape from the seams
Small holes is not a problem. If you can put 3 fingers in a hole please phone
