1. Read this manual carefully before starting assembly. Read each step completely before beginning
each step.
2. Some smaller parts may be shipped inside larger parts. Check inside all parts and cartons
before assembling or ordering parts.
3. To make assembly of your basketball system easier , use the Hardware Identifier on page 4
to identify and sort all fasteners. Check all cartons for kits. All hardware may not be
located in one kit.
4. Do not tighten hardware until instructed to do so. If hardware is tightened too soon, mounting holes
may not align and parts may not easily fit together . Leave locknuts slightly loose until you are instructed to
tighten them.
5. An electric screwdriver is helpful in assembly. However, please set at low torque and use caution
because you could overtighten the hardware and strip the screws.
6. Save these instructions and your proof of purchase (receipt) in the event that the manufacturer
has to be contacted for replacement parts.
