Trampoline Care and Maintenance
General
Your Super Tramp trampoline has been designed to
live outdoors all year round and will generally
require very little maintenance. However, a little care
and attention can add years to the life of your
trampoline. Please remember that the bed (mat) and
frame pads are made of synthetic materials which
can become easily damaged by cigarette ends,
fireworks and bonfire debris. Please make sure that
the following checks are made monthly:
Check that all joints are still intact and have not
become dislodged during use
Check that all springs are attached and that any
stretched springs are replaced
The Frame
Do not sit or stand on the frame/frame pads whilst
the trampoline is in use; this will cause excessive
wear to the springs and frame pads. In some
climates/environments, surface rust can appear. If
this happens, it should be removed using either a
wire brush or coarse sandpaper, and the area treated
with a non-toxic paint.
The Springs
Do not stand on the springs whilst the trampoline is
in use. Ensure you do not bounce on the springs as
they are not designed to withstand these sorts of
stresses. Doing so can result in them becoming
stretched, misshaped and weakened. If you find you
have any damaged springs, it is crucial you replace
them as soon as possible so as to avoid inflicting
damage to the remaining springs.
The Bed
The bed (mat) may eventually become weakened by
the effects of Ultra-Violet radiation. A little mould or
mildew should not harm the mat. Please make sure
that all footwear is removed before bouncing and
ensure that any other sharp objects and jewellery are
removed.
Useful Information
A stretched or dead spring can be identified
where there is visible light through the coils of
the spring. Any springs identified with these
effects should be replaced in order to maintain
the performance of your trampoline. Please note:
this assessment should only be made when the
spring has been removed from the trampoline. It
is normal to see visible light when the springs
are under tension on the trampoline.
When fitting the springs, it is often more
effective to use your bodyweight to pull the
spring back, rather than relying solely on your
upper-body and arm strength.
Accessories
Don’t forget to protect your new trampoline
with a weather cover when it is not in use and
conduct regular maintenance checks.
Do not bounce in footwear. Instead, use grip
socks. You can buy these from us in a variety of
sizes!
