• Gravel for hole

Begin by assembling the frame in the area earmarked for digging. Ensure the springs' holes face upward during assembly. Two people can expedite the process.

Once the frame is set, mark the dig area, adding 2-5 inches to the frame outline for easierplacement. Use spray paint for marking. This extra space aids in backfilling.

With the frame assembled and the area marked, remove enough turfto serve as backfill, covering your tracks effectively.

Start by saving enough turf for backfilling.Begin digging the first hole, reaching the shelf level. Consult your manual for the required depth and use a measuring device for accuracy. Dig to this depth for the entire hole, measuring all sides periodically.

After the first hole, mark the area for the next hole, considering shelf length requirements. Add an inch or two for backfilling. Dig the second hole, designated as the bounce area or bowl area.

The sides of the hole can have a steep angle to minimize soil removal. They don't have to go straight down.

After digging the hole, assemble the frame by attaching the retaining walls using a screwdriver.

Align the retaining walls with pre-existing holes and screw them in. Start with the top holes, then move to the bottom for a secure attachment.

Place the frame inside the hole on the shelf to ensure it fits correctly. Make adjustments if needed.

Confirm the frame fits, then lay down the membrane.Lower the frame into the hole, moving on to the next step.

After placing the frame in the hole, attach the mat with the springs. For a rectangle trampoline, start with the four corners and the middle of the sides, then proceed.

For even tension, work opposite sides with someone.

Once springs are attached, check for any movement in the frame. Perform a test jump to ensure everything is secure.

If everything feels good, backfill the space between the retaining wall and the ground. Avoid soil inside the bowl area.

Pack the backfilled soil tightly and re-turf using the saved turf when ready.

To complete assembly, focus on attaching all the pads. Start by getting all the toggles onto the pad, ensuring the round ball faces the inside.

Once attached, flip the pad onto the trampoline and loop the toggles onto the frame as per your manual instructions.

Congratulations! You've finished the DIY assembly. Take it for a spin immediately to ensure everything feels good. Get ready for years of classic, enjoyable backyard fun!
