17) Rim Assembly
Mount Goal Assembly (#6) and Rim Spac-
ers (#36) to Backboard, using four bolts
(#22), eight washers (#31), four lock wash-
ers (#34), and four hex nuts (#28). Tighten
fasteners finger tight, leave them loose
enough to level rim.
DO NOT FORGET
to assemble four rim
spacers (#36) between rim and backboard.
If the rim spacers are not used the back-
board will break when rim mounted!
Place a level across rim assembly (#6) and adjust rim until it is level. Finish tightening
the four nuts.
Attach Rim Cover Plate (#7) using four washers (#33), four lock washers (#35), and
four hex nuts (#24).
Check all nuts and bolts and make sure everything is
tightened properly.
DO NOT over tighten pivot points, snug is tight enough.
If Backboard Padding (#11 and #12) is not per-installed from the factory use (#23 and
#24) hardware to attach to the backboard frame.
CAUTION
: Do not proceed with rim
installation without these spacers!
