SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE AND WILL VOID WARRANTY.
Owner must ensure that all players know and follow these rules for safe operation of the system.
To ensure safety, do not attempt to assemble this system without following the instructions carefully. Check
entire box and inside all packing material for parts and/or additional instruction material. Before beginning
assembly, read the instructions and identify parts using the hardware identifier and parts list in this document.
Proper and complete assembly, use, and supervision are essential for proper operation and to reduce the risk
of accident or injury. A high probability of serious injury exists if this system is not installed, maintained, and
operated properly.
• If using a ladder during assembly, use extreme caution.
• Check base regularly for leakage. Slow leaks could cause the system to tip
over unexpectedly
• Seat the pole sections properly (if applicable). Failure to do so could allow the
pole sections to separate during play and/or during transport of the system.
• Climate, corrosion or misuse could result in system failure.
• If technical assistance is required, contact Customer Service.
• Minimum operational height is 6'-6" (1.98m) to the bottom of backboard.
Most injuries are caused by misuse and/or not following instructions.
Use caution when using this unit.
IMPORTANT!
Remove all contents from boxes.
Be sure to check inside pole sections,
hardware and additional parts are packed inside.
