FRAME ATTACHMENT A measure, level, drills and wrenches may be needed during assembly. This type of basketball goal can exert a large amount of force on the wall structure where it is mounted. It is very important that the wall structure is strong enough to withstand this force. First locate the wall studs to determine where the mounting frame will be installed. The basketball mounting frame is sized to take advantage of wall studs spaced at 16”. It is very important to note that your stud spacing may be different. Even if the spacing is 16” it is recommended that extra bracing be added to the studs. The illustration below shows reinforcing a stud wall like that which is used for framing a door or window. Prior to installation ensure the blocking is prepared at least as well. After proper wall reinforcement is complete, it can be covered with appropriate paneling and paint. It is important to know that the hardware to mount the wall plate to the wall is not included. It is recommended that the frame be fastened with bolts that go all the way through the reinforced wall. The maximum adjustable height of the basketball rim is 35” above the bottom of the wall frame. To achieve a 10’ rim height the bottom of the frame needs to be mounted 85” up from the floor. 1. Using a level, mark vertical lines on the wall 16” apart that correspond to the reinforced wall studs and bracing. 2. Mark a horizontal line on the wall 85" up from the floor. 3. Position the wall frame with the bottom on the horizontal line and the mounting holes centered on the vertical lines. 4. Mark the mounting holes needed for attachment of frame. 5.
FRAME ASSEMBLY 1. Connection C1: Align the rear holes in the Lower Arm with the lower holes of the Wall Mount Frame. Attach each side using one B3, two W1, one P1 and one N1. Another plastic washer P1 should be attached to the inside of the arm.
BACKBOARD ATTACHMENT 6. Connection C6: Using the actuator, crank the lower arm to a high position. Allow the upper arms to stay down. Carefully lift and support the backboard and align upper backboard holes with upper arm holes. Each connection uses one B1, two W1, two P1 and one N1.
