Jitterbugs! carries out a full risk assessment everytime we hire out one of our inflatables.
It is the responsibility of the hirer to ensure that all possible steps are taken to avoid injury or damage to the inflatable. Please
ensure that the following safety instructions are followed:
1. This unit has an age limit of (owner to specify) years. Please ensure no-one over this age uses the equipment.
2. No food or drinks to be consumed on the inflatable.(to avoid choking & mess).
3. All shoes, and sharp objects, such as badges, key-rings, metal-studded clothing jewellery, (ie. large earrings, necklaces etc.)
MUST be removed. Please note this list is not exhaustive. It is also recommended that spectacles are removed.
4. No face-paints, party-poppers, coloured streamers or "silly string" must be used near or on the inflatable, as they can make a
terrible mess and permanently stain the unit.
5. No smoking near the inflatable.
6. Climbing, hanging, or sitting on the walls is DANGEROUS and must not be allowed.
7. A responsible adult must supervise the INFLATABLE at all times.
8. Ensure that the inflatable is not overcrowded, and limit the numbers depending on age and size of children using it. If the children
are colliding into each other then it is too crowded.
9. Try to avoid large children and small children from using the inflatable at the same time. Some children require strict supervision.
10. If the inflatable is not being used for any part of the day, please switch the blower off at the mains, this will reduce your electric
bill!
11. Do not allow anyone to bounce on the step/front apron. The step is there to help users get on and off.
12. Ensure that no-one with a history of back or neck problems are allowed on the inflatable.
13. Do not allow users to be on the unit during inflation or deflation.
14. In the event of heavy rain, it is strongly recommended that the inflatable be switched off. Any wetness, including bubbling can be
dried with a towel. A small picnic table placed over the blower, will help prevent rain-water being sucked into the blower, and
then into the inflatable.
15. The blower at the back has a safety reset button. In the event that it overheats, or loses power, switch the blower off at the mains,
and then switch it back on again 1 or 2 minutes later, and it should restart. If it does not, or there is a power cut, inform us
IMMEDIATELY.
16. Ensure that the vent on the side of the blower is kept clear at all times.
17. If you are unsure about anything, please contact us.
18. PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE is excluded in its entirety following any claim or injury to any third party or employee whether directly
or indirectly related to the use of drugs and/or alcohol.
