1. Read this manual carefully before starting assembly. Read each step completely before beginning

each step.

2. Some smaller parts may be shipped inside larger parts. Check inside all parts and cartons before assembling or ordering parts.

3. To make assembly of your basketball system easier, use the Hardware Identifier on page 4 to identify and sort all fasteners. Check all cartons for kits. All hardware may not be located in one kit.

4. Do not tighten hardware until instructed to do so. If hardware is tightened too soon, mounting holes

may not align and parts may not easily fit together. Leave locknuts slightly loose until you are instructed to tighten them.

An electric screwdriver is helpful in assembly. However, please set at low torque and use caution

because you could overtighten the hardware and strip the screws.

Save these instructions and your proof of purchase (receipt) in the event that the manufacturer

has to be contacted for replacement parts.

Please Do Not Return This Product To The Store!

INSTALLATION TIMELINE

1. Prior to anchor system and goal assembly, call utility services for location of underground utility lines before you dig.

2. Vertical main post assembly is a two part process.

PART 1

Day 1. Complete Anchor System Installation Instructions.

(Below)

Day 2-4. Allow concrete to cure.

ANCHOR SYSTEM INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (Day 1)

Before digging hole for anchor system, check for buried power, gas, water, and telecommunication lines! Failure to do so could result in serious or fatal injury! Contact your local utility company if unsure.

Items needed for Anchor Installation (not included)

9 - 80 lb. bags of concrete (2-3 extra recommended) 1 - post hole digger (optional) 1 - 15/16” open end wrench 1 - 15/16” socket and ratchet (optional) 1 - concrete form (see note after step 2)

Note: For best results with less vibration, anchor system should be independent of court. If pouring concrete for both at same time, add an expansion joint in between.

Note: When digging hole, if you hit rock and cannot dig through contact a contractor.

1. Determine the location of the anchor

system. The proper location is as close to the court without making contact, as shown in Figure 1. This, however, is a general rule. If you need to locate the anchor system in a location other than this, use the following dimensions as a guide.

Overhang when adjusted to 10 ft. = 27”

Note: Minimum of 18” rear clearance is required behind pole.

2. Assemble anchor system as follows: Thread nut (#35) to bottom

of threads on anchor bolt (#39) insert threads of anchor bolt (#39) through hole on anchor plate (#38) and secure with nut (#35). Repeat this step for the remaining anchor bolts. See Figure

Note: Using a concrete form for the top 4" of the concrete is recommended. Cardboard forms can be purchased at some hardware and home stores or a wooden form can be constructed out of 2 x 4's.

Note: Failure to dig and fill hole as instructed will result in increased system vibration.

*Tip: It is always a good idea to purchase two or three

extra bags of concrete, just in case you need them. If extra bags are not used you can return them to the store.

3. Mix and pour concrete into hole. Follow instructions on

concrete bag. Stop about 18" below court level.

4. Insert four reinforcement bars (Key #40) into concrete 8"

apart creating a square in center on hole.

Place form in desired location and finish pouring concrete

up to court level.

6. Push anchor system into concrete and agitate to work out

voids in concrete. Immediately use a level to level and square anchor plate to playing surface. Clean off any concrete that may be on exposed threads.

Note: The bottom four nuts will be forever embedded in concrete. The top four nuts remain on bolts and

are used for leveling. (See Step 12 on page 10).
