Critical Importance!
All volleyball posts deflect when proper net tension is applied during setup for competition volleyball. For
this reason most manufacturers recommend installing floor sockets at a slight angle leaning away from the
court so that the posts are perpendicular to the floor when tensioned. The exception is when installing a
pole that is to be used as a center post in a 3 post, 2 court "side-by-side" configuration in which case the
center post canister should be installed perpendicular to the floor.
For this purpose, the installation hardware includes three
Gray 1 1/4” Plastic Standoffs (K) and one Black
1 3/8” Plastic Standoff (L). When installing the canister for center post use, use the three Gray 1 1/4”
Plastic Standoffs (K). When installing the canister for end post(s), (either winch or non winch end), use
one Black 1 3/8 Plastic Standoff (L) and two Gray 1 1/4” Plastic Standoffs (K). Note the Black 1 3/8”
Plastic Standoff (L) is positioned to the outside of the court. See Photo 10 and Figure 1.
When you are certain that the standoffs are in the correct location, bolt the canister assembly together
using the
1/4” X 2” Hex Bolts (F) provided. See Photo 12 and Figure 1.
Caution!
It is critical to insure that the standoffs are properly placed as it is virtually impossible to remove the
canister if it is installed incorrectly and the posts lean in the wrong direction or lean when they should be
straight for center post use.
14. Securely attach the Band Clamp (G) approximately 6" – 12" from the bottom of the floor canister using
the 1/4” X 2” Carriage Bolt (H) and 1/4” Flange Nut (I). See Photo 13 and Figure 1.
15. Remove the
VB23-CV Brass Floor Plate (E) and save it and the brass wood screws for reinstallation at a
later time after the grout has cured.
16. The canister assembly is now ready for installation into the excavated hole where the
VB23-CV Brass
Floor Plate (E) was previously installed Note arrow that indicates proper rotation of the canister assembly
in relationship to the court. See Photo 14.
17. Using a heavy tarp or plastic sheet, cover a large area of the floor around each cutout to
protect the floor .
Use duct tape to secure in place.
18. Using an electric jigsaw, router or small handsaw, remove a portion of the wood floor in the "step bore" to
allow adding grout when installing the canister assembly. Avoid removing wood where the brass screws
attach the
VB23-CV Brass Floor Plate (E). See Photos 15 and 16.
19. Prior to inserting the canister assembly into the previously prepared hole, fill the hole with very wet grout
to within approximately 6" of the top of the concrete subfloor (not the wood floor). The concrete mix must
be very wet to allow easy insertion of the canister assembly. See Photo 17.
20. With the canister assembly centered on the hole in the wood floor and the "court" arrow on the
Steering
Wheel Installation Plate (J) shaped assembly pointing in the direction of the volleyball net, slowly work
the canister assembly into the wet grout until the entire assembly is completely seated in the VB23-CV
Brass Floor Plate (E) "step bore" flush with the wood floor surface and with the arrow pointing in the
direction of the court. It may take two or three tries to get the canister assembly properly centered and
seated. See Photos 18 and 19.
