1. Dig holes for sleeves at staked locations. Size of holes are
dependent on equipment used and must take into account soil
conditions to support the poles.
2. Position and level gravel or a concrete block at the bottom of the
hole so that the sleeve opening rests at the proper height at the surface.
3. Fix and support the sleeve in position with wire and/or sections of
rebar to prevent sleeve movement during the concrete pour.
4. During the concrete pour, insure the alignment holes at the top
opening of the sleeve remain properly aligned. These holes help orient
the pole alignment pins at the bottom of the sleeves.
NOTE: The proper orientation of the 5/8" sleeve
stop bolt determines the proper orientation of the
net pole. Each sleeve has a 1/4" through hole at
the top edge through which string could be tied as a
visiable reference to help insure proper alignment.
