Maintenance
The life of your basketball goal system depends on many
variables. The climate, exposure to corrosives such as salt,
organic materials, pesticides, or herbicides, and excessive use or
misuse can all contribute to failure of the goal system, which may
cause property damage or personal injury. Before each use, check
the goal system for loose hardware, excessive wear, abuse, or
vandalism or signs of rust or corrosion.
For safety reasons, and to prolong the life of your basketball
system, you must take the following preventative measures:
• Check all nuts and bolts. Inspect the threads and replace if
necessary. If any are loose, tighten them.
• Check all parts for excessive wear and tear. If necessary, replace
any parts that have been worn or damaged through usage.
• Check all sections of the goal system for visible rust or chipped
or cracked paint, and if present, repair appropriately. See Paint
Touch-Up on this page.
IF RUST OR CORROSION HAS PENETRATED ANY COMPONENT,
DO NOT ALLOW PLAY ON THE GOAL AND REPLACE PARTS
IMMEDIATELY.
• Contact Goalsetter Systems, Inc. for replacement parts. Only
use parts provided by Goalsetter Systems, Inc. Use of other
parts (a) may cause the goal system to fail, (b) could result in
death, serious injury or property damage, and (c) will void the
warranty.
• Inspect the Warning Sticker on the pole. If it is ripped, faded, or
illegible, contact Goalsetter Systems, Inc. to request a replace
-
ment Warning Sticker.
Cleaning
The exterior finish of your Goalsetter
®
goal is designed for
outdoor environments and should only require periodic cleaning
and inspection for imperfections that could develop over time.
When cleaning is necessary, Goalsetter recommends using water
and a mild dish detergent applied with a soft, non-abrasive cloth.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT
use abrasive cleaners to clean the goal. Damage to the
finish may result.
Paint Touch-Up
Goalsetter Systems, Inc. uses a two-part acrylic-
enamel paint on the goals. With periodic inspection
and service when needed, the high-gloss finish is
designed to last for many years. A small bottle of
black paint with brush is provided in the hardware
kit for touch up of imperfections as they develop. If
more touch up is required, please contact Goalsetter
Systems, Inc. or your local Goalsetter Dealer.
Lubrication
The jack is pre-lubricated. As with any mechanical component,
periodic inspection and service is required. Goalsetter Systems,
Inc. recommends applying lubrication each spring and fall to keep
a smooth operation of the height actuator. Failure to do so could
result in jack failure and not be covered under warranty.
Use several shots of grease in the grease zerk.
