SAFE HANDLING OF THE GLASS BACKBOARD
Before & During Assembly
1. Thoroughly inspect the backboard before beginning assembly. Do not use the backboard if there are any chips,
cracks, or other defects in the board. Call our customer service department if any problems are found.
2. Use extreme caution when handling or working around the backboard.
3. Keep tools, hardware, and other sharp and heavy objects away from the backboard.
4. Never rest the backboard directly on a hard surface, such as concrete or pavement. Always place cardboard or
other cushioning material between the backboard and the ground or other hard surfaces.
5. Always lay the backboard fl at. Never place it in a position where it might tip over and break.
6. Glass is very heavy. Always use at least two adults when picking up or moving the backboard.
General Handling & Care
1. Inspect the backboard before each use. Do not use the backboard if there are any chips, cracks, or other defects in
the board. If any signs of damage are found, follow the instructions for “handling broken glass” below.
2. Use extreme caution when handling or working around the backboard.
3. The backboard was designed for use with a basketball. Do not use other types of balls or other objects with the sys-
tem. Do not use this system for any purpose other than its designed purpose.
Handling Broken Glass
At the fi rst sign of breakage:
1. Keep everyone, especially children, away from the immediate area of the backboard.
2. Put on eye protection, and wear thick utility gloves and long sleeves. Small pieces of tempered glass may pop out of
the backboard.
3. Lower the backboard to its lowest height, and completely cover the backboard with a tarp.
4. Do not remove the backboard from the system without fi rst lowering the system to its lowest setting. Carefully read
and follow the “removing backboard from system” instructions below.
Removing Backboard from System
1. With the backboard at its lowest height, have at least two capable adults support the system while one adult
removes the hardware securing the pole to the playing surface.
2. Have at least three capable adults carefully lay the system down. Make sure to rest the rim on a sheet of cardboard
or other non-abraisive surface.
3. Loosen and remove the hardware from the steps performed in the backboard to pole assembly section of this
manual in reverse order. Keep the hardware.
4. Loosen and remove the hardware from the steps performed inthe backboard to rim assembly section to safely
remove the rim. Keep all parts and hardware from this section for reassembly.

• Dig a hole 30" (76.2 cm) deep and 21" (53 cm) square. The edge of the hole should be flush with the edge of the
playing court. If you live in an area where frost heaves may pose a problem, consult your local building inspector to
determine the appropriate hole depth. Bell out the bottom of the hole as illustrated. We recommend building a form
to keep the top of the concrete level and square. Place the form so it is level with the playing surface.

• Thread a nut (AOE) all the way onto each J-bolt (AEI). Slide the threaded ends of the J-bolts through the corner holes
in the template (AKT), and secure them completely with nuts (AOE). Insert the bolt (AEO) through the center hole in the

• Center the template (AKT) over the hole. Insert
the J-bolts (AEI) into the concrete and agitate the
Template assembly to eliminate any air bubbles.
Push the J-bolts into the concrete mix until the
Template is resting flat against the concrete. Form
the concrete into a downward slope toward the
playing surface to allow water runoff. The lower four
nuts (AOE) will be in the concrete permanently. Clean
off any concrete on the template or the exposed
portion of the J-bolts. Using a carpenter’s level,
ensure the Template is square to the playing surface. Plate
should be level and about 1/2" above the playing
surface for water to drain off of the steel.

• If you are using concrete mix, mix the concrete
according to the instructions on the bags. Please
note that a thicker mix of concrete will dry stronger.
Pour the concrete into the hole, stopping about
18" (46 cm) from the top of the hole. Push the
four pieces of 24" rebar (AEZ) firmly to the bottom
of the hole. The rebar should be arranged in a
square about 8" (20 cm) wide in the center of
the hole so each piece will be next to a J-bolt
when it is placed in the concrete mix. Finish
filling the hole to the top with concrete. The
top of the concrete should extend about 1/2"
(13 mm) above the playing surface and slope
downward toward the playing surface to allow
water runoff.

• 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 (3 days). In humid climates or wet
weather, allow additional time for the concrete to cure. Never use the
system without first following the initial setup instructions.

The life of your basketball system depends on many variables. The climate, exposure to corrosives such as salt, pesticides, or herbicides,
and excessive use or misuse can all contribute to pole failure, which may cause property damage or personal injury.
Check your basketball system frequently for loose hardware, excessive wear, and signs of corrosion. For safety reasons, and to
prolong the life of your basketball system, you must take the following preventive measures.
a. Check all nuts and bolts. If any are loose, tighten them.
B. Check all parts for excessive wear and tear. If necessary, replace any parts that have been worn or damaged through usage.
Contact our Customer Service Department for replacement parts.
C. Inspect the warning sticker on the pole. If it is ripped, faded, or illegible, call our customer service department to request a
replacement sticker.
D. Check all pole sections for visible rust or chipped or cracked paint. If either are present, do the following:
1. Use an emery cloth to completely remove any rust or chipped paint.
2. Clean the area with a damp cloth and allow it to dry.
3. Apply two coats of a rust preventative, high gloss enamel paint to the area. Allow the paint to dry between coats.
IF RUST HAS PENETRATED THROUGH THE POLE ANYWHERE, REPLACE IT IMMEDIATELY!

DES BLESSURES GRAVES ET/OU DES DOMMAGES À L’ÉQUIPEMENT.
Le propriétaire doit s’assurer que tous les joueurs con-
naissent et appliquent les règles suivantes afin d’utiliser
l’équipement en toute sécurité.
SI NO SE OBEDECEN ESTAS ADVERTENCIAS PUEDEN PRODUCIRSE
GRAVES LESIONES Y/O DAÑOS A LA PROPIEDAD.
El propietario del sistema debe asegurarse de que todos
los jugadores conozcan y respeten estas reglas para que el
sistema se use en forma segura.
WARNING
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY
AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Owners must ensure that all players know and follow these
rules for safe operation of the system.
• Only hang from the rim briefly to regain balance or avoid
injuring others. Release the rim as soon as safely possible.
• 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
the backboard, rim, or net. Player should wear a mouth guard
during play.
• Do not slide, climb, or play on base or pole.
• When adjusting height or moving system, keep hands and
fingers away from moving parts.
• Do not allow children to move or adjust system.
• Do not wear jewelry (rings, watches, necklaces, etc.) during
play. Objects may entangle in net.
• Keep water and organic material away from pole base. grass,
litter, etc. could cause corrosion and/or deterioration.
• Never play on damaged equipment.
• Once a month check pole and all metal parts for signs of
corrosion (rust, pitting, chipping). Completely remove rust and
repaint with exterior enamel. If rust has penetrated any steel
part, replace that part immediately.
• Check system before each use for proper ballast, loose
hardware, excessive wear, instability, and signs of corrosion
and repair before use.
• Do not use the system to lift or hoist anything. The
mechanism is designed to lift only the weight of the
backboard and rim. Do not hang anything from the handle,
rim, backboard, or lifter arms as this will damage the system
and void the warranty.
• Ne pas se suspendre à l’anneau plus que nécessaire pour
retrouver l'équilibre ou éviter de blesser les autres joueurs.
Relâchez l’anneau aussitôt que possible.
• Lors d’un match, particulièrement dans le cas des smashs, le
visage du joueur ne doit pas faire face au panneau, à l’anneau, ni au
filet. Le joueur risque de graves blessures si ses dents ou son visage
entrent en contact avec le panneau, l’anneau, ou le filet. Les joueurs
doivent toujours porter un protège-dents lorsqu’ils jouent.
• Ne pas glisser, ne pas grimper, et ne pas jouer sur la base ou le
poteau.
• Lors du réglage de la hauteur ou lorsque du déplacement
de l’équipement, garder les mains et doigts loin des pièces mobiles.
• Ne permettre pas aux enfants de déplacer ou d’ajuster
l’équipement.
• Ne pas porter de bijoux (bagues, montres, colliers, etc.) pendant
le jeu. Ces objets pourraient s’accrocher au filet.
• Garder de l’eau et autre matiére organique loin de la base. Le
gazon, les déchets, etc. pourraient provoquer la corrosion et/ou la
détérioration.
• Une fois par mois, vérifier que le poteau et toutes les pièces en
métal ne montrent pas de signes de corrosion (rouille, piqûres,
écaillage). Enlever toute la rouille et repeindre complètement avec
une peinture pour extérieur. Si la rouille a pénétré une des pièces en
acier, il faut remplacer immédiatement la pièce en question.
• A chaque utilisation de l’équipement, vérifier d’abord l’équilibre, la
possibilité de pièces desserrées ou usées, la stabilité de
l’équipement et tout signe de corrosion ou réparation nécessaire
avant utilisation.
• Ne jamais jouer avec un équipement endommagé.
•Ne pas utiliser l’équipement pour lever ou soulever quoique ce
soit. Son mécanisme a été conçu uniquement pour soutenir le poids
du panneau et de l’
anneau. Ne rien accrocher au manche, à
l’anneau, au panneau ni aux leviers sous peine d’endommager
l’équipement et d’annuler la garantie.
• Cuélguese del aro sólo en forma breve, para recuperar el equilibrio
o evitar lesionar a otros jugadores. Suéltese del aro lo más pronto
que pueda hacerlo con seguridad.
• Durante el juego, especialmente al embocar violentamente de
alto, la cara de los jugadores debe mantenerse alejada del tablero,
el aro y la red. Pueden producirse lesiones graves si los dientes o la
cara entran en contacto con el tablero, el aro o la red. Los jugadores
deben usar un protector bucal durante el juego.
• No se deslice, no trepe ni juegue sobre la base o el poste.
• Mantenga las manos y los dedos alejados de las piezas
movibles cuando regule la altura o desplace el sistema.
• No deje que los niños regulen ni desplacen el sistema.
• No use joyas (anillos, relojes, collares o gargantillas, etc.) durante el
juego. Estos objetos pueden engancharse en la red.
• Guarde aqua y materia orgánica. Césped, basura,etc., prodrian
causar corrosión et/o deterioros.
• Controle el poste y todas las piezas metálicas una vez al mes
en busca de signos visibles de corrosión (oxidación, picaduras,
escamado). Elimine todo rastro de óxido y vuelva a pintar con
esmalte para exteriores. Si el óxido ha penetrado cualquier pieza de
acero, reemplace esa pieza de inmediato.
• Inspeccione el sistema antes de cada uso para verificar que esté
adecuadamente contrapesado, que los elementos de fijación no
estén flojos, que no haya desgaste excesivo, inestabilidad ni signos
de corrosión. Si encuentra irregularidades, repárelas antes de usar
el sistema.
• Nunca juegue con un equipo dañado.
• No use el sistema para levantar ningún objeto. El mecanismo
está diseñado para elevar solamente el peso del tablero con el
aro. No cuelgue nada de la agarradera, el aro, el tablero ni los
brazos de elevación, ya que esto puede dañar el sistema y anular la
garantía.
