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.
Most injuries are caused by misuse and/or not following instructions.
Use caution when using this system.
• If using a ladder during assembly, use extreme caution.
• Two (2) people are recommended for this operation.
• Check base regularly for leakage. Slow leaks could cause 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 transport of the system.
