•
Do not install or use this product unless the
instructions within this manual have been
carefully read and understood.
• Consult your Goalsetter dealer or Goalsetter
Systems, Inc. if you do not understand the
instructions in this manual or need additional
information.
• Before digging for the ground anchor, contact
your local One-Call system in your area.
• If using a ladder during assembly, use extreme
caution. Two or three people are recommended
for safe installation and assembly.
• Installation and assembly of this product will
require lifting and bending that may result in injury
to anyone not accustom to this type of activity.
• Ensure there are no overhead power lines within a
20 ft. (7 m.) radius of the goal location.
• Climate, corrosion or misuse could result in
system failure.
• With rim set at 7'-0" playing height, the minimum
operational height is 6'-4" (1.9 m) to the bottom of

GROUND ANCHOR PLACEMENT
Use the following guidelines when installing
ground anchor into a
hard-surfaced area:
•Top of ground anchor to be 1"
(25 mm) above playing surface.
•Concrete fill should have top sloped away from
anchor in all directions to shed moisture away.
•Top of ground anchor must be level both
directions across its surface.
•Hinge side of anchor toward playing surface.
•Hinge parallel with playing surface.
•Distance from edge of hole made in playing surface to anchor to be
no less than 6" (152 mm).
•Distance from bottom of ground anchor plate to concrete fill to be
no less than 1" (25 mm).
IMPORTANT – When preparing for ground
anchor, allow at least 6" (152 mm) from all sides
of ground anchor to wall of hole to allow for
sufficient concrete fill around anchor.
Use the following guidelines when installing
ground anchor into a
landscaped area next to
the playing surface:
•Top of ground anchor to be flush with or
slightly above playing surface.
•Top of ground anchor must be level both directions across its surface.
•Concrete fill should have top sloped away from anchor in all
dir
ections to shed moistur
e away.
•Hinge side of anchor toward playing surface.
•Hinge parallel with playing surface.
•Distance from edge of playing surface to anchor to be no less than 6"
(152 mm).
•Distance from bottom of ground anchor plate to concrete fill to be no
less than 1" (25 mm).

GROUND ANCHOR INSTALLATION
Dig Hole – When installing goal into a hard-
surfaced area, a minimum of a 18" x 18" (0.5 x
0.5 m) area of the hard surface will need to be
removed.
Step 1 – Once location of goal has been
determined, locate center of ground anchor hole.
Step 2 – Dig a hole approximately 18 " (0.5 m) in
diameter and 48-50" (1.2-1.3 m) deep. Use a
spade, shovel, auger or post hole digger.
Position Anchor and Fill Hole with Concrete Mix – For best
performance,
do not fully fill hole with concr
ete mix befor
e positioning
the anchor.
Instead, fill base of hole with concrete mix, lower the
ground anchor into the hole, position it and then finish filling with
concrete mix.
Step 1 – Locate and unpack ground anchor. Do not remove plastic
plugs or hinge bolt.
Step 2
– Place 2-3 bags of concr
ete mix into hole; add water and stir.
Follow concrete mix manufactur
er’s instructions for best results.
Step 3 – Position anchor in center of hole with hinge side toward and
parallel with playing surface.
IMPORTANT – As hole is filled with concrete mix, periodically place a
level on top of anchor plate and check that it is level front-to-back and
left-to-right. Also check that the top of anchor is at correct height.
Step 4 – Adjust anchor plate height,
depending upon installation, per
guidelines given in Ground Anchor
Placement.
Step 5 – Continue filling hole with
concrete mix until it is within 1"-1.5"
(25-38 mm) of anchor plate bottom, or
level with landscape – whichever
comes first.
