Care And Maintenance; General Care; Rust And Corrosion; Textile Deterioration - Vuly Thunder Pro Manual

2.0. Care and Maintenance

Improper maintenance or lack of care can lead to your
trampoline deteriorating earlier than expected. Please
follow these care instructions to ensure that your trampoline
lasts for as long as possible.
Customers must not modify the original trampoline, unless
carried out according to Vuly instructions

2.1. General care

• Retain this Manual.
• Inspect before and after each use. It is essential that you
replace any worn, defective or missing parts immediately
and only through Vuly.
– See the 2.6 Inspection checklist.
• Ensure that the Safety Net is always correctly attached
and in good condition.
– Replace the Safety Net every 1 year.
• Keep away objects that could damage textile components.
• Ensure that moving steel components remain well lubricated.
• Use only Vuly-made accessories.
• Use only parts that are recommended by Vuly.

2.2. Rust and corrosion

• Be aware of areas that are particularly prone to rusting:
– Places where water is easily trapped.
– Hollow sections of steel (which can appear in good
condition on the outside, while hiding rust on the inside).
– Sections where steel components join together.
• Inspect the inside of all Frame Tubes and Net Poles every
6 months – as well as after rain – and remove any water
from the inside surfaces.
• Check Frame Tubes and Net Pole connection areas for rust.
• Use general-purpose grease on steel connection areas.
• Avoid cleaning steel components excessively; it may
reduce the effectiveness of our protective coatings.

2.3. Textile deterioration

• Clean your Jump Mat with a soft sponge only to avoid
prematurely wearing the textiles.
• Avoid using powerful soaps or detergents; they can
damage the textiles.
• Wipe dry with an absorbent cloth any water left after rain,
cleaning or use of the Vuly Mister accessory. The Jump
Mat may discolor or form spots, if left to dry in the sun.
• Remove textile parts, and store them – in their original
packaging – in a cool, dry and dark place when the trampoline
will be unused for over 1 month. Prolonged exposure to UV
sunlight can shorten the lifespan of the Safety Net.

2.4. Weather care

Components of this trampoline are susceptible to
deterioration from use and environmental conditions – such
as sunlight, rain, salt and heat – to varying degrees.
If your trampoline will be unused for any extended period,
disassemble it, return it to its original packaging and store it
in a dry place.
RAIN: Remove any fallen debris on your trampoline
after rain and wipe off residual water with a dry cloth.
Moisture left on the trampoline may contribute to the
corrosion of steel components and weaken textiles.
WIND: Disconnect the Safety Net from the Net Poles, and
cover the Safety Net and Jump Mat with a storm cover.
COLD: Disassemble your trampoline and store the
Jump Mat and Safety Net indoors.
HEAT: Move your trampoline to where it will receive
the most shade during the brightest times of the day.
Cover when not in use to minimize UV damage.

2.5. Relocation

• Move the trampoline with a minimum of 8 adults, to ensure
that the lift is within heavy lifting regulations.
• Move the trampoline short distances using the official Vuly
Wheels accessory for your trampoline model. Remove
after use.
• Do not drag the trampoline. Parts may bend or warp if
insufficiently lifted.
• Avoid tilting the trampoline or resting it on its side; the
frame may bend under its own weight.
• Disassemble the trampoline, and return it to its original
packaging, to transport it over long distances.
COMPONENTS WILL DETERIORATE OVER TIME.
