CARE AND MAINTENANCE
It's important to carry out checks and maintenance of the main parts
(frame, suspension system,
mat, padding, and enclosure) at the beginning of each season and
also at regular intervals,
pointing out that if these checks are not carried out, the trampoline
could become dangerous.
• Check all nuts and bolts for tightness and tighten when required;
• Check that all spring-loaded (pit pin) joints are still intact and cannot
become dislodged during
play;
• Check all coverings and sharp edges and replace when required;
• Retain the maintenance instruction manual;
• Outdoor trampolines should be equipped with a device that in strong
wind conditions avoid
displacement due to wind (e.g. steel bars in the ground or loads like
sand bag or water bags) and/
or items catching wind like net and mat should be removed;
• In certain countries during winter period, the snow load and the very
low temperature can
damage the trampoline. It is recommended to remove the snow and
store the mat and the
enclosure indoor;
• Check that mat, padding, enclosure and soft surface are without
defects;
• Replace the net after 1 years of use;
• In severe wind situations, the trampoline can be blown about, it
should be moved to a sheltered
area or disassembled. Another option is to fix it to the ground with
suitable devices, such as using
ropes and stakes.
