Best and fastest way to set up your trampoline

So you have spent a ton on money on your new trampoline. You get the manual and like most manual it is very complicated and you do not understand how to put to together.  So what do you do without getting overly frustrated?  Most trampolines are shipped out in 2-3 boxes.  Determine which box is the net enclosure and which on is the actual trampoline.  First thing you do is to put all the legs together.  Depending on what type of trampoline you have it may have anywhere from 4-6 legs.  Once all the legs are bolted on, take the rest of the trampoline and set it up on a round circle.  You should visualize what the trampoline will look like.  Now instead on putting the round parting together, take of the legs and put it to the round part of the frame.  And just go in one direction until the trampoline is fully set up.   Do not put the round part of the trampoline together without the legs, it will make it very hard to setup and will wobble as you are putting the other legs on.  You can do it this way but will take almost double the time.  Once the frame is all setup, take out the springs and put them in the frame one at a time till all the springs are in.   Now it is time to set up the jumping mat.  The jumping mat is tricky, instead of starting from one side and go all the way around, put the first spring and then the spring exactly opposite of that one.  So start from 12 o’clock the go to 6 oclock, 3 and 9.  Then put in all the springs that are on the tjoints of the trampoline.  The tjoint are where the legs to into the trampoline.  Once the springs for all the tjoints are in you are ready to put all the springs on.  Now you are ready to go left and just go all the way around til all the springs are done.  If you initially start from one spot and work your way around, by the time you reach the last spring there will be so much pressure you won’t be able to put in the last few springs.  You might even break or snap the frame of the trampoline depending on what type of frame you have.  Now it is time to throw on the spring cover and just tie them down securely, and don’t forget to put the clips on the v rings of the jumping mat.
