2.Correctly identify each pole section and mark indicated distance from ends with tape as shown.

3.Align pole top and middle pole sections as shown using alignment mark and hole.

IMPORTANT! Holes in top (4) and middle pole (5) sections MUST align to correctly position elevator system toward playing surface. Bounce pole top (4) and middle section (5) together as shown until they no longer move toward taped reference mark. NOTE: Pole sections should have a 3-1/2" (9 cm) minimum overlap.

4.IMPORTANT! Holes in top (4) and bottom pole (6) sections MUST align to correctly position elevator system toward playing surface. Add bottom pole section (6) to assembly as shown using alignment mark and hole, and bounce until completely tight. Once assembled, pole sections CAN NOT be separated! NOTE: Pole sections should have a 3-1/2" (9 cm) minimum overlap.

5.Install rod (7) through holes in bottom pole section (6) and eyebolt (8).

6.Insert pole assembly into tank assembly as shown. Secure pole assembly with upper pivot bracket (9) and lock nut (10).

7.Secure base struts (11) to pole using bolt (12), washers (13), and nut (14), as shown. Place vinyl bolt cover (46) over exposed bolt threads. Rotate the non-secured ends of base struts (11) as shown.

8.Secure base struts (11) to base using bolt (16), washers (13), and nut (17).

9.Insert carriage bolts (18) into middle set of holes on wheel bracket (19) as shown.

10.Attach lower pivot bracket (20) to wheel bracket (19) using bolt (21), washers (13), disc (22), and nut (10) as shown.

11.Attach handle bar (23) to wheel bracket assembly using nuts (17) as shown.

12.Install wheels (3) onto axle (24) and wheel bracket assembly with push caps (25) as shown.

13.Attach wheel bracket assembly to base assembly using bolt (26), washers (13), and nut (10) as shown.

14.NOTE: Two people recommended for this step. Carefully reposition entire assembly to upright position.

Attach front of plastic handle (27) to back of plastic handle (28) around handle bar (23) using self-tapping screws (58) as shown.

IMPORTANT! Front of plastic handle (27) should face outward, away from pole assembly.

15.Insert bolts (30) through plastic handle assembly, handle bar (23) and attach nuts (17) as shown. Tighten completely.

16.Install net clips (21).

The Quick Clip™ rapid release net system lets the net pull away from the rim. This reduces the risk of player injury or property damage. However, improper installation or a ball making contact at an odd angle may disengage the net clip from the goal rim. Usually, the clip is reinstalled with little or no problem. We hope that you agree this inconvenience is minor when compared to the safety of the players. Quick Clip: US Patent No. 5,792,010/5,795,253

The two outer hooks on net clip must face towards inside of goal rim. Insert larger hole in net clip onto rim stud, push down on net clip, then slide net clip right, locking or snapping securely into position (clips must "snap" into place to insure a secure fit).

NOTE: Net clips should not slide with ease. It is very important that the net clips are in the locked position before going on to next step.

WARNING: USE OF THIS PRODUCT WITHOUT PROPER INSTALLATION OF NET CLIPS, OR WHEN ALL NET CLIPS ARE NOT PRESENT COULD RESULT IN BODILY HARM. BE SURE TO FOLLOW DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY.
