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.

Not all items pictured are included with every model.

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. 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.
