Lay the jumping mat (bed) (part no. JKNS14B) inside
the frame. Springs are used to support the mat (bed)
and are connected between “V” rings on the mat (bed)
and holes in the top frame rail. There are 96 “V” rings
on the mat (bed) that have to line up with corresponding
holes on the top frame rail. These are not numbered.
To make sure they eventually all line up, pick an
arbitrary point and call it zero or 12 o’clock. Connect a
spring between the “V” ring and the frame hole at this
point (See Fig. 6).
Now count 24 holes and “V” rings in a clockwise direc-
tion. Attach a spring. You should be at hole 24 or 3
o’clock. Count another 24 holes and “V” rings in a
clockwise direction. Attach a spring. You should be at
hole 48 or 6 o’clock. Count another 24 holes and “V”
rings clockwise and attach a spring. You should be at
hole 72 or 9 o’clock. At this point, you should have 4
springs installed at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o’clock (See Fig. 7).
This equal tension procedure is essential to properly
attach the mat (bed) to the frame.

Step 7:
It is best to use a spring as a pull tool to pull and attach
the springs (part no. JS4G - single spring) from the “V”
ring on the bed (mat) to the frame holes. Using your
hand can lead to getting “pinched” and also doesn’t
properly tension the spring. Attach the spring to the “V”
ring and using the “pull tool” spring, pull the attachment
spring to the frame by inter-connecting spring hooks
and pulling with one hand. When the attachment spring
hook reaches the frame, use your other hand to push it
into the frame slot hole while disengaging the “pull tool”
(See Fig. 5).
