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. 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. Check entire box and inside all packing material for parts
and/or additional instructional material. Before beginning assembly, read the
instructions and identify parts using the hardware identifier and parts list in this
document.
• 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.

• 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.
• If technical assistance is required, contact Huffy Sports.
• Adult supervision is recommended when adjusting height.
Most injuries are caused by misuse and/or not following instructions.
