Mount the rim to the Backboard/H-Frame assembly using the
hardware supplied in the rim box. If you purchased an acrylic
backboard make sure to place the second rubber gasket (included
with backboard) between the face of the backboard and the
backplate of the rim. Trim gasket if necessary. Use a level to
make sure rim is level side to side relative to backboard before
tightening nuts. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN NUTS! If the lockwasher is
fully compressed, it’s tight enough. Attach coverplate to rim and
hang net.

Finally, check rim height for 10’. If raising or lowering is
necessary, loosen the (4) 3/8” hex nuts on the (4) carriage bolts
and adjust as needed until rim is at 10’ and backboard is level.
Tighten nuts.
