The sheet metal Tower
(#22)
can flex to get
wider or narrower, on units with a 72” or 60”
backboard the Tower will need to be flexed out
to fit the brackets. On units with a 54”
backboard the Tower may need to be flexed in.
Make sure the bracket is centered from front to
back, then tighten
front
&
back
Nylon bolts.
Lastly, tighten
middle
bolt until the brackets
are completely secure. See note below.

STEP 3
STEP 4
OR
Insert Tower
(#22)
into the opening of the
Bracket
(#21)
. On one side, line up the two
holes in the Tower to the two centering
indentations in the bracket, then do the same
for the other side until both sides of the tower
are in the bracket.
NOTE:
TIGHTEN BOLTS UNTIL SECURE, BUT
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN!!
THIS COULD
CAUSE YOUR POST BRACKET TO DEFORM.
If this happens, loosen bolts until bracket
regains its shape and tighten back up slowly
until it is firmly on pole.

NOTE:
Tower will deform permanently.
Assembly tip:
Lifting each bracket up
separately and then sliding it back into place
can assist in this process.
NOTE:
When tightened the bolts on model
FT
72
will stick out more than on smaller units.
