1.
Determine the location of the hole.
The proper location is as close to the
court without making contact, as

If you need to locate the
hole in a location other than this, use
the following dimensions as a guide.
Overhang when adjusted to 305cm (10ft.) = 49cm
2. Vertical main post assembly is a two part process.

buried power, gas, water, and telecommunication
lines! Failure to do so could result in serious or fatal
injury! Contact your local utility company if unsure.
