Disassembly and Storage
To store the tent on the side of the trampoline
The trampoline tent can be stored on the trampoline frame for short periods on non-use. This is done by folding the tent
down and wrapping it in its attached tie string pouch. The pouch is an integral part of the tent (fabric/straps) and is on the
rear window (opposite the door) side of the tent.
Enter the tent and tie down all windows. Exit the tent and zip the door closed.
Remove (unstrap) all the velcro straps on the front (door) side of the trampoline frame. This is the 3 o'clock to 6 o'clock to
9 o'clock part of the top frame. Also unstrap the velcro strap on the back side (away from door - 12 o'clock side) on each
pole bracket. This will release all the tension on the tent and poles and allow you to properly lower the tent to the 12 o'clock
position. Lower the tent to the 12 o'clock position.
Leaving the poles attached to the combination bracket assembly, gather the tent and poles together on the outside of the
trampoline frame. You will have to slide the middle pole out (along the yellow pole) to align with the two longer poles at the
edge of the frame. This is done by grasping the pole at the slider piece and moving it out along the yellow pole about one
foot.
Gather the tent fabric and poles into a tight bundle and wrap the upper and lower flaps of the tie string pouch around the
tight bundle. This is best done by first wrapping the lower flap up around the tent/pole bundle and then folding the longer
upper flap around it. Tie the pouch closed with the tie strings provided. Tuck any loose protruding material into the pouch.
Remove the tent floor and store in a clean dry place.
Prolonged exposure to the sun and elements (especially ultraviolet rays) will shorten the life of the tent fabric. For longer
tent life, store the tent in its tie string pouch during short periods of non-use. Remove the tent from the trampoline during
inclimate weather or during long periods of non-use. Once removed, store it in its stuff sack in a clean dry place.
The trampoline is now ready for use as a trampoline. Trampoline users should get on and off of the half of the trampoline
that does not have the stored tent. Follow all of the trampoline manufacturer’s instructions on how to use the trampoline
safely.
To put the tent back in service, install the tent floor over the mat (bed), then untie the tie string pouch, check the hardware
brackets for tightness, erect the tent, and secure it with the velcro straps as per assembly Step 11 on page 11.
To remove the tent from the trampoline
Make sure the tent is dry before removing and storing. Reverse the order of the basic assembly process. Vertical frame
brackets do not have to be removed but should be loosened and turned so the pole dowels are under the springs and out
of the way. Store the tent in a safe, dry location.
Once the tent is stored, remove all items from the trampoline mat (bed). Make sure the mat (bed) is clean and that it has
no tears or holes.
