Question

What should I do if my trampoline suddenly folded into a banana shape?

Community Answer

Assuming the trampoline isn't faulty, then this means there is too much weight on it.

How may people does it take to build the trampoline?

Question

Can I build a trampoline with a few missing pieces?

Community Answer

You probably can, depending on what pieces are missing, but most likely it won't be safe and you shouldn't risk the saftey of anyone. Try going on Ebay or something along those lines to buy the pieces you are missing.

Question

What should I do if I have put all the cords in place, but the jumping mat still sags?

Community Answer

Then it's the mat that has a fault or is just old. It shouldn't be an issue, unless it nearly touches the ground. You could try to tighten the cords as best you can, or just call the company for a replacement.

Question

Are the bars supposed to fit tightly, or does it get tighter after the bolts are put in?

Community Answer

Not too tightly, tight enough so it doesn't rattle when gently shook. Once you put the bolts in it should be tight.

Question

Does a trampoline need to be level?

Community Answer

Yes. It is important to put a trampoline on level ground. A trampoline that is not level could cause the bouncer to lose their balance, which could lead to injury.
