MOVING the TRAMPOLINE (and ATTACHED TENT)
To avoid damage to the tent or trampoline, do not allow pets or animals inside the tent.
Trampoline tent and mat (bed) can be damaged by sharp or glass objects. The user should remove all sharp objects,
which may cause injury or damage to the trampoline mat (bed) or tent.
Appropriate shoes should be worn when inside the tent to reduce wear to the mat (bed). Follow the trampoline
manufacturer’s recommendations.
Chemicals such as hair spray and insect repellent are flammable. Keep these chemicals, along with food and beverages,
away from the tent fabric and trampoline mat (bed). They can damage the fabric.
It is best to let the tent dry before storing it in its tie string pouch. The tent can become wet in rain or heavy dew.
Prolonged exposure to the sun, especially ultraviolet rays, will shorten the life of the tent fabric. For longer tent life, store
the tent in its tie string pouch when it’s not being used. A dry tent, properly stored, will provide the longest life of fabric,
sewing, and hardware. Remove the tent from the trampoline during inclimate weather or during periods of non-use.
Do not force the zippers on the tent windows or door.
Wind
High winds could overturn trampoline and blow down tent. Take down tent and stake trampoline in high or gusty winds.
If you anticipate high winds, move the trampoline and tent to a sheltered location. Disassemble the tent, and tie the round
outside portion (the top frame) of the trampoline to the ground using rope and stakes. Use at least 3 tie-downs. Do not
simply secure the legs to the ground, because they can pull out of the frame sockets. The tent only attaches to the trampo-
line; there is no way to secure it to the ground.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
If you need to move your trampoline periodically, wrap (secure) all slip joints with a weather-resistant tape such as duct
tape. This will keep the frame intact and keep the tubular elements from separating during the move. At least 2 people are
needed to move the trampoline. The trampoline should be kept horizontal and lifted slightly to move. Disassemble the
trampoline for any other kind of movement.
