5a. Using the two 1/4" x 8" Carriage Bolts (Z) and 1/4" Wing Nuts (AA), sandwich the Predrilled Wood
Panels (BB) around the pole assembly at a location where the pole assembly will insert into the concrete
footing. Use the set of holes that are closest to the side of the pole assembly. Position them as shown in
Figure 2. The Installation Aid (Z-BB) can be adjusted to support the pole in the proper position when
inserted into the concrete.
6a. Fill the footing to the top with medium wet fully mixed concrete. Never use the Premix Concrete (Y) dry.
7a. Insert the pole assembly into the center of the footing making sure that one set of 1/2" x 3/4" Button Head
Screws (V) are on the back side of the pole assembly, and that the front face of the pole assembly is
square to the playing surface.
8a. While the concrete is still wet, and the pole assembly is movable, adjust the Installation Aid (Z-BB) on
the pole assembly to help maintain the top of the pole at 96" from the playing surface, plumb in both
directions, and with the front face of the pole parallel to the court. See Figure 5.
9a. ALLOW AT LEAST 4 DAYS FOR CONCRETE TO CURE BEFORE COMPLETING THE
INSTALLATION TO AVOID FOOTING FAILURE. Install Warning Label (HH) at eye level on
the rear of the pole. If your warning label becomes damaged or is unreadable, request a no cost
replacement from the manufacturer.
10a. Drill an 1/8" - 1/4" hole through one wall in the bottom of your pole assembly opposite the playing
surface to ensure no water builds up inside the pole.
11a. Discard the Installation Aid (Z-BB) once footing is cured.
12a. Proceed to #16. TO CONTINUE INSTALLATION
