Attach a spring into one of the trampoline mat’s v-rings or spring loops. Attach the second spring to the end of your hook. Pull the hook back and forth until the two springs are in contact with each other, and then pull them apart. You should now have two spring-loaded hooks, one on each side. Repeat this process with the third and fourth springs.

What tools do I need to put a trampoline together?
You will need a power drill or Phillips head screwdriver. The rubber mallet and spring puller are included in the packaging. When it is time to use the drill, you should have gloves with you. Drill a hole in the bottom of the box. I used a 1/4″ drill bit, but you can also use a 3/8″ bit if you prefer. If you don’t have a drill, you will have to drill the hole yourself.
It is a good idea to make sure that you have the right size bit for your drill before you start drilling. The hole should be at least 1″ in diameter and about 1.5″ deep. This will allow you to insert the screw into the plastic. Be sure to leave enough room for the screws to slide in and out.
Make sure you do not over-tighten your screws, as this will cause them to come loose and cause a lot of damage to your project. Once you are happy with your hole size, drill a pilot hole through the top of your box, about 2″ from the edge.
What tool can I use to pull springs on trampoline?
Tool also known as T-Hook, will help you slide the springs easily into trampoline frame when you install your jumping mat. It works with any trampoline brand.
What is best to put under a trampoline?
Adding rubber mats underneath the trampoline could provide the same amount of shock absorption as installing it on a hard surface. Commercial sand, rubber, and wood chips are other types of surfaces.
How often should you replace trampoline mat?
We recommend you replace your trampoline mat every 2 or so years. The bounce and safety will be ensured by this. If your mat has a puncture, tear or loose thread, you should replace it as soon as possible.
How long does it take to put a trampoline up?
The bigger the trampoline, the longer it might take since it will have more springs. The average time it takes to assemble a trampoline is three to five hours. If you need help, you can ask a friend or family member.
Why does my trampoline feel loose?
Your trampoline’s mat can be loose for a few reasons, from overstretched springs to standard bounce cords. If your trampoline is brand-new, you’ll want to modify your bounce cords, but if it’s no longer a spring chicken, you’ll want a new bounce cord.
If you’re using a bounce-cord, make sure the cord is long enough to support the weight of your body, and that it doesn’t stretch too much when you jump. You can also check to see if you have any knots in your cord, which can make it more difficult to swing your leg back and forth.
