ASSEMBLE THE TRAPEZE CANOPY
1. Note this frame is very heavy. It is recommended to have a
minimum of (2) people to lift and move the base frame.
2. Unbox the base frame and move it to the desired location. Unbox all
components from the canopy box and match them to the Parts list
ensuring you have all the components before beginning.
3. Find the provided Eye Bolts and Finish Washer and install in
the legs as shown, one on each Foot End Leg. Tighten the eye
bolts by turning clockwise. Once the bolts start to get tight,
continue to spin them and orientate them so they are vertical.
See Figure 2.
4. Remove the two vertical head end tubes from the box with the
Push-through Bar system. When picking up this assembled
tube set, be careful of the PTB, it may swing. On one side of the
vertical tubes, on the lower half, there will be two screws installed
in threaded holes. Remove these screws, these holes line up
with holes in legs. Place the tubes into the frame leg extrusion
openings opposite the legs you just installed the eye bolts in.
See Figure 1.
5. Insert the tubes all the way to the bottom of the legs. Once
installed the holes in the tubes will line up with the holes in
the legs, if necessary lift the tubes just slightly to align. Use
the provided 5/32” Allen wrench and 1/4”-20 x 5/8” screws to
lock the tubes into position.
6. Install the foot end vertical tubes into the other two leg
openings. Ensure that the upper eye bolts are facing away
from the upholstery mat. Tighten using the 5/32” Allen
wrench and 1/4”-20 x 5/8” screws. See Figure 1.
7. Now set the canopy top onto the four vertical tubes. You will
need help with this. The end of the canopy frame with the (3)
eye bolts goes over the Push-through Bar. Be certain all four
corner fittings fit securely over the tubes. See Figure 1.
8. Using the 3/16” Allen wrench, tighten the set screws in all
four corner fittings and in the flanges around the frame.
After tightening all set screws in all the corner fittings, test
the movement of the Trapeze Bar slider. To do this, ensure
the knobs on the outside are loose, push the Bar assembly
horizontally. This system should move easily and not stick
when uniform pressure is applied. Run the Trapeze Bar
assembly the entire length of canopy. If the slider sticks when
moving the position, simply loosen the set screws that are
holding the horizontal tubes, rotate the tubes as necessary
until the sliders move freely. Be sure to re-tighten all set
screws when complete.
9. Attach the Arm, Leg, Roll Down Bar, Push-through Bar and
Trapeze Bar springs to their appropriate locations. See Figure 1 for
locations of springs. See Figure 3, 4 for pictures of springs.

10. Attach the Roll Down Bar to the Roll Down Bar Springs.
11. Install the Trapeze bar sleeves on the Trapeze Bar Springs,
then attach the Trapeze Bar. Lastly attach the Trapeze Bar
Sling to the Trapeze Bar. See Figure 1.
12. Attach the Long Safety Chains to the outside eye bolts on the
top canopy head end. Attach the short Safety Chain to the
middle eye bolt on the same end. See Figure 1.
13. Attach the loops to the end of the leg springs.
14. Attach handles to the arm springs.
15. Attach foot strap to foot end eye bolts on the frame. See
Figure 1.
16. Install the Belly Strap over and around the upholstery pad.
17. If desired place the Large Kuna board up against the foot end
vertical tubes.
18. Provided leveling pads can be placed under the legs of your
device if needed. Use as needed.
TOY BOX VERSION
The base frame may have a factory installed hidden “Toy Box”.
If your Base Frame has this feature, once the machine is in the
desired location and setup with the canopy, look under your top
frame rails to locate a plastic zip tie on the underside of your
Toybox. Using scissors or blade, cut this zip tie. This is installed
for shipping, and with it removed allows the lid to open.
Be sure to loosen the Belly Strap fully before trying to open the
lid or ensure it is not attached.
Make sure the PTB is out of the way or raise it up to the high
position and secure with the safety chain. Reposition or remove
any accessories or springs that may be in the way of the opening
Toy Box top.
There are (2) subtle recessed handles in the vinyl, on one side,
used for hand access points. Places your fingers into these
openings and lift the upholstery lid up. There are (2) gas shocks
that assist the lid up at a controlled speed. It will stop opening
on its own. This compartment can be used to store extra
loops, handles, springs, Kuna board, airplane board and other
accessories.
To close, make sure others are free and clear before closing,
push the lid down it will take a little force to get it started. Once
the lid is about 3” from the frame it will close on its own. Make
sure all fingers and clear when closing. Re-tighten the Belly Strap
as desired.
HOW TO ADJUST YOUR SLIDING TRAPEZE BAR
Position your hands on the outside of each slider. Place your
thumb and fore and/or middle fingers over the knobs; spin them
clockwise to lock threads into the tubes. This locks the Trapeze
Bar assembly into position so it does not slide. It is recommended
to always lock BOTH knobs for safety purposes. Spin the knobs
the opposite direction to loosen and move the assembly. Once
you are in the desired location tighten the knobs.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
Inspect springs for separations, and replace if needed. Inspect
snaps on springs and make sure the retractors operate smoothly.
Replace them if worn or do not operate freely. Make sure that
there are no indentations on the inside of the hooks.
Inspect all nuts, eyebolts and setscrews for tightness. Tighten or
replace if necessary.
