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.
To ensure safety, do not attempt to assemble this system without
following the instructions carefully. Proper and complete assembly,
use and supervision is 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.

1
•
•
•
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 6' 6" (1.98 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
to the right.
•
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.)
Use extreme caution if placing system on sloped surface.
