1

Unfold the trampoline. Note

that the side tension lines are

prethreaded. Insert the front sealed bolt rope edge into the tram- poline track of the front corssbar.

Continue feeding the trampoline into the trampoline track and position it in the centre. Line up the grommet in the centre of the front edge of the trampoline with the dolphin striker

2

Pull the trampoline to the

back of the boat and insert

the fibreflass rod into the rear flap of the trampoline. Leave an equal amount protruding from each side.

3

Commence lacing the rear of the trampoline. The lacing line ties off on the

 

lacing post at the left rear of the rear beam. Pass the line around the rod

and back around the first lacing post. Lead the line around the second la- cing post and pass it around the rod on the first trampoline cut out. Now, come back around the second lacing post and continue towards the third. Continue all the way across the beam in the same fashion and tie off loo-

sely. Do not attempt to tighten the rear lacing too much at this Beginning stage.

4 Tensioning the sides : starting at the right rear cor-

ner, take the line that emerges from the trampoline. Lead it through the eye strap on the rear beam and

then through the grommet/eyelet. Tie it off with a bowline knot or similar.

5

Move to the

 

front right cor-

ner of the trampoline. Pull on the line as firmly as possible and tie a bowline knot or loop in the line as close to the trampoline edge as possible.

This will enable a 2:1 purchase to be used for tensio- ning. Tie off once tensioned to secure.

Now lead the end of the line through the eyestrap on the rear

 

of the front beam and back through the loop. Lead the end

back through the eyestrap and apply as much tension as pos- sible. Maintaining the tension, lead the line through the grommet and back to the eyestrap. Next, lead the line through the grommet in the front edge of the trampoline and tie off securely. Repeat proce- dure for port side.
