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 3 to identify and sort all fasteners. Check all cartons for kits. All hardware is not 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.

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 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.

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

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

concrete bag. Stop about 18" below court level.

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

THESE NUTS USED FOR LEVELING

2. Note: Each leg of anchor bolts should face the anchor bolt to the right. See Detail A.

Figure 2

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

creating a square in center on hole.

5. 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 14 on page 7).

Let concrete stand for a MINIMUM of 72 hours.

Be sure that the holes are toward the back of the pole.

Figure 3

Before putting any of the poles tubes together, mark bottom pole (#2) 6 inches from the top end. Be sure to match up

both “Back Side” stickers on the back of the poles and that the holes on top pole are toward the back. See Figure 3.

Align the upper pole (#3) with the bottom pole (#2) as shown in Figure 3 and slide them together. Stand poles up on a block of wood, lift poles up and hit on a block of wood until the bottom of the upper pole reaches the 6” mark on the bottom pole. Hit poles a minimum of 7 times. This is a friction-locking joint and requires no hardware.

IMPORTANT! DO NOT hit poles with hammer or sledge hammer to slide poles together.
