Can I adjust the tension on the 220 model to stop it from squeaking when I bounce?

You can pull the cords to tighten them. You might also try a little lubricant under the cords.

Hi Louise I have had my trampoline for close to 10 month now and it has never squeaked, very unlike my old one with springs. I use it outside even in the cold under cover. Could it be moisture or temperature in your case? I think the tension is adjustable by shortening the bungees. Good Luck.

It can be adjusted but I am not sure about the squeaking. I don't have that problem as long as I have it on a level floor it is quiet. When not on a level floor it makes a noise but not squeaking.

I haven't either but suspect HPD is likely correct. You may be able to "adjust" the tension but my feeling is a smaller trap would work better for you.

You could try checking the tension using the instructions in the manual. If it's too loose it will come off.

I didn't adjust the tensions, I like it the way it was set by the seller/manufacturer. And I am not even sure how todo it. About the sound - it was very quiet the first 3-4 days, and after that it started making squeaky noise. I called the sellerthey said they would be glad to exchange it but I decided to put some machine oil to see if it goes away (I figured it would be easier than returning it).I haven't done it yet, I need to buy that oil first. Otherwise, I like the machine.

No squeaking -- at all. Not from the frame, or from the support "springs." I use a 14" thick memory foam bed on this frame, and I weigh 260 lbs. The frame gets quite a workout, yet remains silent.

Mine doesn't. In fact mine was slightly to lose and wouldn't stand up by its self. but I just tightened it. also if it does squeak you just need to loosen the bottom part. I think if the squeak is something that's deciding whether you buy it or not, it shouldn't its great product and IF it does the squeak its a very quick fix.

My brand new one is extremely noisy as well. The sounds do not come from the belt passing along the treadmill or from my feet hitting the treadmill. There are loud rattles and squeaks that come from the area of the motor. Also, the entire treadmill deck bounces up and down a little when I run on it. So far, I am pretty unhappy with this expensive purchase.

The springs on our swing do not squeak. Sorry I could not help with your question.

When we first set up ours, we installed the bouncing surface with every other spring attached. Things were lax. Then we found more springs in the box and our problem was solved. I hope this is helpful to you.

There is a T handle screw on the top and you can adjust it to change the tension. I usually leave it at the same tension all the time because that is what I'm comfortable with, but some may want to adjust it. I love it - works well for me.

The short answer is - I don't. I have it in a place for use, but because the unit has no tension knob, which I didn't know before I purchased, I'm not using it...a total waste of money and space. I'm actually trying to give it away.

Yes, but you'll have to damp it manually, by adjusting the tension. Once you get that set to your preference, you're golden.

Nothing "bangs" on my elliptical. I've been using it multiple times each week for two years. I had a few squeaks and have tightened the bolts. Sorry I can't help.

Mine did not have the tension feature. It was adjustable with one piece sliding inside the other.

Be sure you have it completely seated in place. Mine doesn't bounce at all.

Mine seen to work fairly well, not perfectly smoothly but good enough. I hear no squeak. It ships with a little plastic socket wrench that pops right off and can be used to adjust the tension on the leg locking clasps. You might play with that and see if an adjustment helps. I have found customer service very good. They sent me a whole new head when I had a problem.

You should be able to. It comes with several extensions so you don't have to use all of them and then you can adjust it when you twist the tension knobs.
