Trampoline Assembly
|
The most important thing to remember is to follow the instructions that come with your trampoline. Don't use the old �if all else fails read the directions.� Instead take a minute and read the instructions to make sure you understand them. Then second time round they'll make more sense. All the tools you will need should come in the box. First step is to make sure the ground has been leveled in the place you will be placing it. Leveling is very important to safety. If you're placing on a lawn area you still may have to do some leveling. The soil is going to need to be tamped down. Next take all the pieces out of the box and make sure they are all present and accounted for. Then it's time to follow the instructions and get busy installing. You'll notice a little cautionary note not to use your trampoline when wet or during high winds because they become a safety hazard. Be sure to follow these warnings. You should be maintaining at least a 6 foot fence around the trampoline. Check with your local government agencies for rules in your areas. Most manufacturers say at least 6 feet for safety reasons. Once you've assembled and your trampoline is upright you should anchor it down with your anchor kit. This is an excellent added safety benefit that helps keep your trampoline steady and in one place. When installed properly with all the right safety gear and a protective cover you should expect to get somewhere between 2 and 5 years depending on the quality of the trampoline. Most trampolines are rated for 250 pounds unless you get into the much larger ones. Take head and follow the manufacturers posted limitations. Post the weight restrictions with the safety rules. Trampoline assembly should take no more than an afternoon and then you'll be ready to enjoy it!
