Check all nuts and bolts and make sure everything is
tightened properly.
DO NOT over tighten
pivot points,
snug is tight enough.

Use the Backboard Pads (#37) and (#38) as a template and
mark the hole locations on the backboard frame. See
Figure

and
Detail A
.
28.
Drill 9/64" pilot holes into steel backboard frame. See
Detail A. Do not drill through both sides of tube.

Secure Backboard Pads (#37) and (#38), as shown, using
screws (#42). Note: Tighten screws tight but,
do not over
tighten.
Figure 14.
Note: Cordless drill recommended for screw installation.
Do not over tighten screws causing screws to strip.
Note: To install screws, it will be easier if you use a
cordless drill with 5/16” socket (instead of Phillips head).
Mount Goal Assembly (#28) to Backboard, as shown in
Figure 14
, using four bolts (#41), four washers (#26), and
four locknuts (#4). Tighten fasteners, but leave them loose
enough to level rim.
Note: Screws (#42), used in step 29, are Self Drilling
screws and can be installed without drilling pilot holes.
However, it will be easier to install screws if you drill
9/64” pilot holes. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES if drilling holes.
