ASSEMBLY AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

• Attention to the need to carry out checks and maintenance of the main parts (frame, suspension system, mat, padding, and enclosure) at the beginning of each season and also at regular intervals of every 2 weeks, pointing out that if these checks are not carried out, the trampoline could become dangerous.
• Check all nuts and bolts for tightness and tighten when required.
• Check that all spring-loaded (pit pin) joints are still intact and cannot become dislodged during play.
• Check all coverings and sharp edges and replace when required.
• Retain the maintenance instruction manual.
• Outdoor trampolines should be equipped with a device that in strong wind conditions avoid displacement due to wind (e.g. steel bars in the ground or loads like sand bag or water bags) and/or items catching wind like net and mat should be removed.
• In certain countries during winter period, the snow load and the very low temperature can damage the trampoline. It is recommended to remove the snow and store the mat and the enclosure indoor.
• Check that mat, padding, enclosure and soft surface are without defects.
• Make sure that the hook-and-loop fasteners are closed correctly during use of trampoline!
• Trampoline and net should be packed away in winter. Make sure all parts are dry and packed securely.
• Store dry to support product longevity. Always be aware of wear and tear due to weather and wind.
• We recommend securing the trampoline in strong winds. Tie the trampoline down with ropes attached to the trampoline pad. Tie the trampoline down in a minimum of three places distributed evenly across the trampoline frame.
• Do not secure the legs as these may become misaligned and ruin the trampoline. Dismantle or remove the trampoline completely, if required. It may result in great danger if the trampoline is not secured in strong winds.
• If the trampoline is not used for short periods of time and to avoid jump mat debris caused by fallen leaves and twigs, It’s recommended usage of a Weather Cover. When the trampoline is not used for a longer period of time (e.g. during the winter). It’s recommended storing the trampoline, especially the protective padding, in a dry area to support product longevity.
• Ensure that all parts are all correctly fixated together. Also, check if the trampoline has the same distance from the hole as instructed before entering into the trampoline.

NOTE! Sunlight, rain, snow and extreme temperatures reduce the strength of these parts over time.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Missing parts: If you think you are missing certain parts in your package, carefully check the styrofoa and the trampoline. Some parts (bolts, screws, etc.) are already attached to/in the trampoline.

Use gloves to protect your hands from bottlenecks during assembly. When you’re ready to get started, make sure you have plenty of room and a clean, dry area for mounting.

Read the assembly instructions below before you start mounting the trampoline. Incorrect mounting will damage the trampoline frame:

• Make sure the trampoline is placed on level ground. Uneven ground surfaces may cause the trampoline frame to warp (FIG 1).
  

• Make sure that all bolts holding the frame joints are tightened completely before installing the springs. Failure to do this properly will cause the frame to warp.

• Make sure NOT to use one’s leg to push against the trampoline leg or frame when loading the springs. It will cause the trampoline to warp (FIG 2).
  

• DO NOT load the springs onto the frame on only one side of the trampoline. Uneven distribution of tension from the springs will cause the frame to warp (FIG 2).

• If the trampoline frame warps up, do not be alarmed as the “Quad-lock” system is designed to be flexible. Push down on the part of the frame that warped with two people as shown. The frame will level out **(FIG 3)
