CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CARE
Do not allow pets on the trampoline, as their claws may snag and pull the mat material or damage the frame pad.
The trampoline is intended to be used by one person at a time who weighs not more than 250 pounds. The user
should be either barefoot, wearing socks, or wearing gymnastic shoes. Street shoes or tennis shoes should not be
worn on the trampoline. The user should remove all sharp objects from his or her person that may cause injury or
damage to the mat. Heavy, sharp, or pointed hard objects should never touch the mat.
MAINTENANCE
Your trampoline was manufactured using quality materials and crafted to provide you and your family with many
years of enjoyment and exercise. Proper maintenance and care will help to prolong the life of the trampoline and
reduce the possibility of injury. The following guidelines should always be followed.
Inspect the trampoline before each use, and replace any worn, defective, or missing parts. The following conditions
could represent possible hazards and increase the danger of personal injury:
•
a missing, improperly positioned, or insecurely attached frame pad
•
punctures, frays, tears, or holes worn in the mat or frame pad
•
deterioration (wearing out) in the stitching or fabric of the mat or frame pad
•
ruptured or missing springs
•
a bent or broken frame or leg
•
a sagging mat
•
sharp points on the frame or suspension system
If any of these conditions exist, the trampoline should be taken apart or otherwise protected against use until the
condition is fixed.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
High Wind
Moving the Trampoline
If the trampoline needs to be moved, it should be moved by two persons, kept horizontal, and lifted slightly. If nec-
essary, the trampoline can be taken apart for moving. To take the trampoline apart, follow the assembly steps in
reverse order (see pages 11 to 14). Do not attempt to take the frame sections, legs, or bases apart before the mat and
springs have been removed.

The trampoline can be blown around by high winds. If you expect high
winds the trampoline should be moved to a sheltered location and taken
apart. The trampoline can be tied to the ground with stakes but this is not a
guarantee. The force of the wind can exceed the holding force of the stakes.
