WARNING

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS MAY RESULT

IN SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

Owner must ensure that all players know and follow

these rules for safe operation of the system.

• DO NOT HANG on the rim or any part of the system including backboard, suppor t braces or net.

• During play, especially when performing dunk type activities, keep player's face away from the backboard, rim and net. Serious injury could occur if teeth/face come in contact with backboard, rim or net.

• Do not slide, climb, shake or play on base and/or pole.

• After assembly is complete, fill system completely with water or sand and stake to the ground. Never leave system in an upright position without filling base with weight, as system may tip over causing injuries.

• When adjusting height or moving system, keep hands and fingers away from moving parts.

• Do not allow children to move or adjust system.

• During play, do not wear jewelry (rings, watches, necklaces, etc.). Objects may entangle in net.

• Surface beneath the base must be smooth and free of gravel or other sharp objects. Punctures cause leakage and could cause system to tip over.

• Keep organic material away from pole base. Grass, litter, etc. could cause corrosion and/or deterioration.

• Check pole system for signs of corrosion (rust, pitting, chipping) and repaint with exterior enamel paint. If rust has penetrated through the steel anywhere, replace pole immediately.

• Check system before each use for proper ballast, loose hardware, excessive wear and signs corrosion and repair before use.

• Check system before each use for instability.

• Do not use system during windy and/or severe weather conditions; system may tip over. Place system in the storage position and/or in an area protected from the wind and free from personal property and/or overhead wires.

• Never play on damaged equipment.

• See instruction manual for proper installation and maintenance.

• When moving system, use caution to keep mechanism from shifting.

• Keep pole top covered with cap at all times.

• Do not allow water in tank to freeze. During sub-freezing weather add non-toxic antifreeze, sand or empty tank completely and store. (Do not use salt.)

•

While moving system, Do not allow anyone to stand or sit on base or have added ballasting on base.

• Do not leave system unsupervised or play on system when wheels are engaged for moving.

• Use Caution when moving system across uneven surfaces. System may tip over.

• Use extreme caution if placing system on sloped surface. System may tip over more easily.

NOTICE TO ASSEMBLERS

ALL Huffy Sports basketball systems, including those used for DISPLAYS, MUST be assembled and ballasted with sand or water according to instructions. Failure to follow instructions could

result in SERIOUS INJURY. It is NOT acceptable to devise a makeshift weight system.

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.

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 seperate during play and/or during transport of the system.

• Climate, corrosion or misuse could result in system failure.

• If technical assistance is required, contact Huffy Sports.

BEFORE YOU START!

To ensure optimal playability of backboard system, a

close tolerance fit between the elevator components

and hardware is required. Test-fit large bolts into large

holes of elevator tubes, backboard brackets, and

triangle plates. Carefully rock them in a circular motion

to ream out any excess paint from holes if necessary.
