Door jumper safety starts with the right setup

What to check before each use
Before every jumping session, quickly inspect the jumper: confirm the clamp is tight, the straps are not twisted or worn, and the fabric is clean and dry. Also check that the doorframe is secure and that no other objects could interfere with the jumper's movement. If you notice any damage, discontinue use until you can replace the part or contact the manufacturer.
