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 – NB 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.

• 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.

Trouble shooting

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
