3. Unit with steel mesh backboard, hoop 117 3909 & without height
adjustment
(Product codes 115 8104, 115 8159, 115 8188, 115 8191, 135 0803, 135 0816, 135 0829 & 135 0832)
This system features the same design as the basketball units 117 3505 and 117 3589. It comes with a different
backboard though (4b) – one that is particularly quiet, as it’s made of hot-dip galvanised steel mesh. This is an
excellent choice for fun and games in residential areas. For safety reasons, we recommend fitting the system with
protective post padding (product code 116 1726).
For the assembly, the washers (8) are not required. See figure 1 for further details regarding installation.
4. Height-adjustable unit with aluminium backboard
(Product codes 117 3550 & 117 6201)
The post and foundation elements are the same as those used for units 1 and 2. However, contrary to the
aforementioned basketball systems, this unit’s backboard can be lowered from the standard playing height of
3.05 m to 2.60 m. Use the height adjustment rod to lower the board via a threaded rod and two guide posts. Do not
attempt to lower or raise the system further than the backboard’s end positions, as this may damage the crank or
height adjustment mechanism.
The height adjustment feature is supplied fully assembled and must be attached to the basketball post’s steel
bracket as shown in figure 2. There’s a support strut to the rear of the basketball post. Attach the clamp, which is
made of 50×5 flat steel, to the inclined arm of the post. Make sure that the connecting plate points downwards.
Then insert the supporting strut diagonally between the clamp and the bottom of the height adjustment feature.
Align the basketball unit so the height adjustment feature is suspended vertically and screw it in tightly.
Next, attach the aluminium backboard, the damping pad and the hoop to the front of the height adjustment feature.
Details for the screws can be seen in figure 3.
For safety reasons, the bracket on the bottom of the backboard comes with padding (see figure 2). We also
recommend using protective post padding (product code 116 1726).
Please note that the backboard on this system extends a further 300 mm into the court.
