Climate, corrosion or misuse could result in system failure.
The Safety Rod stops the Main Extension Arm at a rim height of 7.5 ft. Attempting to
adjust further down will damage the Arm. If the Safety Rod is removed, adjustment of the rim below a height of 7 ft.
DO NOT HANG on the rim or any part of the goal system. This includes the backboard, support braces and net.
During play, especially when performing dunking activities, players should keep their faces away from the backboard, rim and net. Serious injury could result if teeth or face come in contact with the backboard, rim or net. Do not wear jewelry or other loose objects that could become entangled with the net.
Twice yearly, check the hoop system for loose hardware, excessive wear and signs of corrosion. Repair the system before use.
Never play on damaged equipment.

NOTE: Before digging, call to locate any buried utility lines.
NOTE : At rim height 10′, distance from the face of backboard to the front of Main Post(A) is 48″ , Choose the proper location to dig for the concrete footing:

( STEP A)

a. Dig a hole 48″ deep and 21″x 21″square . The edge of the hole should be flush with the edge of the playing surface. If you live in an area where heavy frost can occur, it may pose a problem, consult your local building inspector to determine the appropriate hole depth.
NOTE: The hole must be at least 48″ deep.
b. Build a form before pouring the concrete pad, to ensure that the top of the concrete remains straight and square. The form should
be placed about 1/2″ above the playing surface to allow for water drainage.
c. Bell out the bottom of the hole.
NOTE: A square hole prevents the rotation of the concrete.
NOTE: The area behind the playing surface must be cleared off by at least 3 feet to enable the user to stand behind the pole to adjust the Rim height.

( STEP B)

A. Thread a 16mm Hex Nut (U4) onto each of the 16mm J- Bolts (U2).Securely tighten the Nuts all the way down to the end of the threads.
B. Slide the threaded end of the J-Bolts through the holes in the Anchor Template (U1) and secure each J-Bolt with a 16mm J-Bolt Hex Nuts(U4) as shown. Securely tighten all Nuts at this time.
NOTE: Make sure the curved “J” ends of the J-Bolts are oriented in a rectangular pattern, as shown.

( STEP C)

a. Mix the concrete according to the instructions on the bags. Note that a thicker mix of concrete will dry stronger than a thin mix. Pour the concrete into the hole, stopping approximately 18 inches from the top of the hole. Insert the four pieces of Ancho
b. sert the four pieces of Anchor Rebar (US) into the hole, pushing piece firmly to the bottom of the hole. The four pieces should be arranged in a square approximately 8 inches wide so that each pie ? ?
rebar will be positioned next to the J-Bolts when the J-Bolt Templat
c. Finish filling the hole to the top with concrete. The top of the concrete should reach just above the level of the top of the form.

( STEP D)

a. Position the J-Bolt Template (U1) over the hole so that it is centered, with the sides of the plate square with the sides of the hole.
b. Push the J-Bolts (U2) into the concrete until the J-Bolt Template is resting flat against the surface of the concrete.
c. Grasp the tops of the J-Bolts and agitate the Template assembly back and forth repeatedly to eliminate any air bubbles in the concrete. Lift the Template slightly above the concrete when agitating . Make sure the Template is resting on the concrete after agitating. Form the concrete into a downward slope away from the Pole to allow water runoff.
d. Clean off any concrete that may be on the J-Bolt Template or the exposed portions of the J-Bolts.
e. Using a carpenter’ s level, make sure the Template is square to and level with the playing surface.
f. Allow the concrete to cure for a minimum of 5-7 days before installing the rest of your basketball system. In cold , wet weather or humid climates, allow additional time for the concrete to cure.

YOU ARE NOW FINISHED WITH THE INITIAL ASSEMBLY STEPS. DO NOT PROCEED WITH THE ASSEMBLY UNTIL THE CONCRETE HAS FULLY CURED . CURING WILL TAKE A MINIMUM OF 72 HOURS. IN HUMID CLIMATES OR WET WEATHER, ALLOW ADDITIONAL TIME FOR THE CONCRETE TO CURE.
