Because of the size and weight of the system, a minimum of six adults are required
for the following steps.
a. Place the Backboard face down on cardboard next to the Pole, with the bottom of the Backboard closest to the Pole.
b. Apply a small amount of Dark Lithium Grease to two 1/2” x 2 1/4” Hex Bolts (BC).
c. Have at least four adults lift the top of the Pole so the ends of the Lower Extension Arm (AT) are several inches off the
ground.
d. Two other adults should then place the Backboard under the Lower Extension Arm. Align the holes at the bottom of the
Backboard channels with the holes in the Lower Extension Arm (AT).
e. Slide a greased Hex Bolt (BC) through each Lower Extension arm and the Backboard. Slide a 5/8” O-ring (ZA), and a 1/2”
Washer (YA) onto each bolt and secure with a 1/2” Nylock Jam Nut (EB).
Tighten each Nut securely, but make sure the
Bolt can still rotate.
