This document is applicable to inflatable play equipment intended for use by persons of 1200mm minimum height and 120kg maximum weight.
This document specifies safety requirements for an inflatable game on which the primary activity is pulling horizontally against a secured bungee shock cord. It sets measures to address risks and also to minimize accidents to users for those involved in the design, manufacture and supply of the inflatable game.
It specifies information to be supplied with the equipment. The requirements have been laid down bearing in mind the risk factor based on available data.
This document specifies the requirements that will protect the user from hazards that they might be unable to foresee when using the equipment as intended, or in a manner that can be reasonably anticipated.
This document is not applicable to inflatable water- borne play and leisure equipment, domestic inflatable toys, air-supported buildings, inflatables used solely for protection, inflatables used for rescue, or other types of inflatable toys where the primary activity is not pulling horizontally against a secured bungee shock cord.
In order not to confine the application of this document to those items of equipment currently in use and to allow freedom of design for the manufacture of new equipment, only the fundamental forms of equipment and motion are defined in Clause 3.
