ASSEMBLY OF BACKBOARD, GOAL AND SWAYBRACES
NOTE
CAUTION – DURING ASSEMBLY OF THIS BACKSTOP, IT IS OF EXTREME IMPORTANCE THAT THE
BACKBOARD IS NOT DROPPED, IMPROPERLY TORQUED (BOLTS TIGHTENED BEFORE PLUMBING ALL
ATTACHMENT POINTS), OR THE GLASS SECTION BE ALLOWED TO CONTACT OR STRIKE METAL PARTS.
THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER BREAKAGE DURING INSTALLATION.
1.
Unpack and identify all parts (refer to Parts List on Page 4).
2.
Position the unpacked glass backboard (#1) on its cardboard packing carton in front of portable backstop frame assembly (#4).
Remove two 3/8" x 1-1/4" hex head cap screws, flatwashers, lockwashers and hex nuts from back of glass backboard. Save this
hardware for Steps No. 3 and 4.
3.
Install the two 3/8" x 1-1/4" hex
head cap screws from Step No. 2
into the thru holes in the backside
of the glass backboard.
See
Detail "B". Secure them in place
temporarily with tape or
crumpled paper at the head of the
screws.
4.
This step requires at least three
adults – two to lift the backboard,
and one to install the hardware.
Carefully lift the backboard into
place and secure it to the
mounting plate on the backstop
frame assembly. Secure with the
flatwashers, lockwashers and hex
nuts from Step No. 2. See Detail
"B".
Do not fully tighten
hardware yet.
This hardware allows for
independent installation and
removal of the goal, without
disturbing the backboard.
5.
Install goal to backboard and
backstop frame assembly.
Follow instructions and use
hardware that is supplied with the goal. Backboard may have to be shifted slightly for proper alignment. Do not fully tighten
hardware yet.
6.
Lay a level across the top of the backboard. Align backboard and securely tighten the two (2) 3/8" x 1-1/4" bolts mounted
through the backstop mounting plate into the backboard (from Step No. 4). Level goal and tighten four (4) bolts through goal.
7.
Check to ensure that all hardware securing the backboard and goal to the backstop frame assembly are fully tightened.
PROCEED IMMEDIATELY TO STEP No. 8 ON PAGE 10 TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE BACKBOARD
