Care and Maintenance Instructions (Trampoline)
Care and Maintenance Safety Checklist (Trampoline)
Note:
Inspect the trampoline before each use and replace any worn, defective, or missing parts.
Frame Pad
Our frame pad reduces the risk of accidental injury due to falling onto the frame railing and gives
minimal resistance to striking or falling on and through the springs. The frame pad life-expectancy
is one to two years. To increase life of pad:
Do not allow jumpers to stand or sit on pad
Do not allow jumpers to grab pad in order to pull themselves onto trampoline
Do not allow sharp, abrasive objects to come in contact with the pad surface
If you have a safety enclosure installed, rotate the pad periodically to spread out wear and tear
