P/N 211948C 01/04

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.

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, support 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.

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.

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.

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

• Minimum operational height is 7'6" (2.3 m) to the bottom of backboard.

• This equipment is intended for home recreational use only and NOT excessive competitive play.

• Read and understand the warning label affixed to pole. Label is shown on page 3.

• The life of your basketball pole depends on many conditions. The climate, placement of the pole, the location of the pole, exposure to corrosives such as pesticides, herbicides or salts are all important factors.

• If technical assistance is required contact Huffy Sports.

• Adult supervision is recommended when adjusting height.

HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

TO ADJUST BACKBOARD:

1. While holding handle, remove pin.

2. Move elevator up or down to desired height.

3. Replace pin full length to lock system at desired height.

MOVING SYSTEM

1. Adjust basketball backboard height to lowest position.

2. Rotate handles forward until wheels engage ground.

3. Move basketball system to desired location.

4. Rotate handle back to original position.

5. Reattach ground restraint and check system for stability.
