5.  Follow the set-up instructions in reverse to disconnect the cage and remove 

Reach Poles.  Be sure to attach the bit clips on the ends of the 2:1 Tensioning 
Assemblies to the 

LOWER

 side of the knot on each halyard as previously 

mentioned.  The halyards can be gathered and pulled to the side, or lifted and 
hung out of reach if needed. 
 

6.  When packing the net for storage, the goal is to avoid tangling the cables and 

losing the end rings, thereby simplifying set-up for the next use. Begin by 
bringing the three Tensioning Cables together. The easiest way to do this is to 
have one person at each end of the lowered cage.  Each person collects the 
three cables and pulls tension between each other so that the cables run 
adjacent and parallel to one another. 

 

7.  Lay the cables down and push the sides of the cage inward until you have a full 

length row of net about 2’ wide with the cables on top. 

 

8.  Place your storage container (such as the Phantom™ Tensioned Sports Cage 

Storage Cart) near middle of the net. Grabbing the net in the middle, carefully lift 
and place it down in the bottom of the container so as not to snag it on anything.  
Keep loading the net in from both sides equally until the entire cage is in the 
container and the three steel rings from each end of the cage are left hanging out 
opposite sides of the container’s top opening. 

 

9.  To deploy the cage the next time, set the storage container in the middle of the 

designated cage area. Have two people each take one set of steel rings and pull 
the net out of the container as they walk toward opposite walls. 

 
 
Thank you for your purchase of the Phantom™ Tensioned Sports Cage System! 
 
We hope you enjoy the simplicity and ease of use it provides.
