ASSEMBLING AND MOUNTING THE SCOREBOARD
IMPORTANT: DO NOT MOUNT FLAT TO A WALL. A MINIM
UM OF 18” CLEARANCE MUST BE LEFT FOR
ACCESS TO THE REAR OF THE UNIT, AS THE POWER AND SIGNAL CABLE ACCESS DOORS ARE LOCATED ON
THE BACK OF THE SCOREBOARD.
24” CLEARANCE IS RECOMMENDED. ALL HARDWARE REQUIRED TO
MOUNT THE SCOREBOARD TO POLES OR I BEAMS IS SUPPLIED BY THE CUSTOMER.
Installation:
1. After unpacking the scoreboard, arrange the panels in order A
– C from left to right, face
down, with the top away from the mounting poles or I beams. Keep the panels aligned at the
top and against each other, making sure not to pinch cables that may be hanging outside of
each cabinet.
2.
Join the cabinet assemblies A, B and C, left to right using the 3.5” X 15’ mounting angle and
the 3/8” bolt hardware provided in the installation kit, making one assembly.
3. Install crossover nipples between the cabinets.
Failure to install crossover nipples will void
the warranty
.
4. Connect ALL crossover cables between cabinets as in the image on the right above, making
sure the red stripe on the edge of the ribbon cables are aligned when connected.
5. Lift the assembly from the top angle irons to a vertical position, still resting on the ground and
install the top sponsor panel if included in the installation. Install the 2” X 8” flat steel brackets
with the bolts provided in the pre-drilled holes along the top of the sponsor panel, with the
bracket being perpendicular to the scoreboard, as shown below in the figure on the right.
6. Raise the scoreboard to the mounting poles or I Beams and at the proper height, use a clamp
at one pole or I beam to hold that corner in place.
7. Using a level in the top channel of the scoreboard, slowly raise the scoreboard to level it and
clamp to the other end mounting pole or I Beam.
