INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your purchase of a Gared Sports model Mini-EZ Portable backstop. To
ensure that our equipment will provide years of use to you, we are including this installation,
operation, and maintenance guide. This guide will provide information on the proper assembly
and installation methods, operating procedures, and preventative maintenance of your portable
backstop.
It is recommended that an individual who has been properly trained perform assembly
and set up of the backstop. No one under the age of 18 should attempt assembly or set up of the
unit, unless properly supervised.
To prevent normal wear and tear from shortening the life of the unit, preventative
maintenance inspections and repairs should be performed at least once per year. If the units are
subject to high or unusual usage, inspections should be scheduled to occur more frequently. If
items are found to be nonconforming, replacements can be ordered from Gared Sports or one of
our authorized dealers. When contacting Gared Sports, please have information regarding the
dealer/installer who sold the unit, the name of the project, and any applicable warranty
information.
