SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS 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 orientation 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.

• Three capable adults are recommended for this operation.

• Assemble the pole sections properly. Failure to do so could cause the pole sections

to separate during play.

• Before digging, contact utility company to locate underground power cables, gas,

and water lines. Ensure that there are no overhead power lines within 20 ft. (7m) radius of pole location.

• Minimum operational height is 7’6” (2,23m) to the rim.

Most injuries are caused by misuse and/or not following instructions. Use caution when using

this system.

POLE SECTION IDENTIFICATION

Identify the pole sections before beginning assembly. Failure to assemble the pole sections

correctly may result in severe personal injury or property damage as described on Page One.

ONCE THE POLE SECTIONS HAVE BEEN SEATED, THEY CANNOT BE SEPARATED.

Top Pole:

Four holes at the top of the pole, four holes in the middle, two holes near the bottom and one small hole at the bottom.

MP BP

Middle Pole:

One slot at the top of the pole and one small hole at the bottom. Warning Sticker.

Bottom Pole:

One slot at the top of the pole and a bent edge at the bottom. Shortest pole.

Page 5

For a nonpermanent installation of your basketball system, a Ground Sleeve provides an alternative to cementing the pole into the ground. See Page 14 for more information.

2.1 Mix 5 1/2 bags of concrete, following the directions on the concrete bags.

Keep in mind that a thicker mix of concrete will dry stronger.

1.1 Dig a round hole 24” deep and

18” in diameter. The edge of the hole should be ﬂush with the edge of the playing surface.

18”

24”

3.1 The slots in the Bottom Pole must be parallel

to the playing surface. If necessary, insert a straight object (a ruler, wire, etc.) through the slots in the Bottom Pole. Rotate the pole until the straight object is parallel to the playing surface.

Note: Form the cement into a downward slope away from the pole to allow water runoff. Failure to do so may result in

premature rusting of the pole.

14.5”

1.2 Make a mark 14.5” up from

the dimpled end of the Bottom Pole (BP) (do not scratch the powder

Playing Surface

coating).

Important: Save a 1/2 bag of concrete mix to use later in the assembly.

2.2 Fill the hole to the top with concrete.

2.3 Insert the dimpled end of the Bottom Pole into

the cement up to the 14.5” mark and 4” away from the playing surface.

Warning: If the pole is buried too deep or too shallow, the Rim will not be at the correct height.

Important: Do not continue until the concrete has set for 1-4 hours.

5.1 Remove the straight object from the top of the pole.

5.2 Mix the remaining 1/2 bag of concrete and pour the concrete into the Bottom Pole until it is just below the slots in the top of the pole.

Important: Do not overﬁll the pole, or you may not be able to assemble the rest of the pole sections.

5.3 Tamp the concrete down in the Bottom Pole with a broom handle to remove any air pockets.

5.4 Clean all excess concrete off the outside surface of the pole.

4.1 Place the 1/2” x 3’ rebar (not included) inside the Bottom Pole (BP).

4.2 Check the pole several times within the ﬁrst hour to make sure that all sides are vertical and that the pole does not sink into the concrete. The 14.5” mark must remain level with the playing surface.

Important: Allow 1-4 hours for the concrete to set.

Rebar

STOP!

The concrete must cure for at least 72 hours (3 days) before installing the rest of the system. In humid climates or wet weather, allow additional time for the concrete to cure. Do not proceed until the curing process is complete.

Operation of the height adjustment system

The adjustable system may be adjusted from 7 1/2 feet to 10 feet. Hold the Handle tightly and squeeze the Trigger to engage the Gas Spring. Raise the Handle to lower the Backboard, or lower the Handle to raise the Backboard.

WHILE TRANSPORTING THE PORTABLE SYSTEM, USE CAUTION TO PREVENT THE MECHANISM FROM ADJUSTING.

Moving the system

WARNING: The system must only be moved by people capable of handling its weight. Children should not be allowed to move the system.

a. Adjust the system to its lowest position. b. Stand in front of the system and pull on the pole until the unit is balanced on its Wheels. c. Move the system to the desired location and carefully set the Base down.

POLE CARE AND SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

The life of your basketball system depends on many variables. The climate, exposure to corrosives

such as salt, pesticides, or herbicides, and excessive use or misuse can all contribute to pole failure, which may cause property damage or personal injury.

Check your basketball system frequently for loose hardware, excessive wear, and signs of

corrosion. For safety reasons, and to prolong the life of your basketball system, you must

take the following preventive measures. a. Check all Nuts and Bolts. If any are loose, tighten them. b. Check all parts for excessive wear and tear. If necessary, replace any parts that have been

worn or damaged through usage. Check the Pole Cap for cracks or tears that could let water

into the pole. Contact our Customer Service Department for replacement parts. c. Inspect the Warning Sticker on the pole. If it is ripped, faded, or illegible, call our Customer

Service Department to request a replacement Sticker. d. Check all pole sections for visible rust or chipped or cracked paint. If either are present, do

the following:

1. Use an emery cloth to completely remove any rust or chipped paint.

2. Clean the area with a damp cloth and allow it to dry.

3. Apply two coats of a rust preventative, high gloss enamel paint to the area. Allow the

paint to dry between coats.

IF RUST HAS PENETRATED THROUGH THE POLE ANYWHERE, REPLACE IT IMMEDIATELY!
