Clear out the part of your lawn or garden where the trampoline is going to be. Start early in the morning so that you’re sure to have sunlight all throughout the process. You may also need a companion to help you to assemble the trampoline.

Lay down the pieces according to their type on the lawn, sorting them in groups. Make sure that all parts are accounted for by comparing the items declared in the manual and the parts that you do have with you.
Start by assembling the safety frame of the trampoline first. Lay them out first on the areas where they’re supposed to go to before putting them together.
Begin inserting the joints together, and securing them by hitting the joints with a rubber mallet. This will ensure that the joints are all locked in together by snapping it into place.
Start adding the springs to the trampoline’s safety frame. They should all dangle to the ground or, in the case of open hooks, be facing downwards when the bed is attached.
Get the trampoline bed and stretch it out throughout the safety frame. You and your partner will then start hooking the trampoline bed to the springs. Do this carefully and one by one, or else you risk improper stretching and ripping.
Get the spring covers open and tie them to the grommets, making sure not to entangle them.
Get the rubber safety cover and stretch it out to cover the hooks and the edges of the trampoline.
Stretch the trampoline net to distribute it properly on the guide lines. Make sure that you keep it from tangling, and hang the net onto the frame. Let it overlap from the entry point. Tie to the trampoline frame to secure it further.
