Having completed the steps above and determined the "top half" and "bottom half" of the hinge (see above), firmly grasp the "bottom half" at the midpoint of the frame with both hands. Slide the "top half" of the frame under a couch or other low and heavy piece of furniture. The frame and at least 1 leg will contact the furniture in this maneuver and may scratch the finish or fabric. It may be advisable to place a towel between the rebounder and the furniture.
Note: The rebounder is held in the open position by the stout tension of the springs. To close, you will need to overcome the tension of the springs. Once you have overcome the tension, the rebounder will have the tendency to snap closed. Make sure you grasp the frame firmly and pull slowly to maintain control while closing. Also, keep your head clear of the frame movement.
Raise the "bottom half" of the frame slowly until the spring tension is overcome. Slide the rebounder out from under the furniture and complete the close. |
