Using the Contour Pads
13
Fig. 9 shows a few suggested contour pad positions that can provide the types of breaks indicated. The
contour pads are placed under the turf but on top of the plastic base. To position the contour pads, lift the
turf and place the pad(s) in the desired locations.
While positioning the pad(s), please use extreme caution so as not to crease the turf.

Green Care and Maintenance
Your Backyard Golf green requires very little general care (so you’ll spend your time putting rather than maintain-
ing your green). If and when required, the following may have to be performed:
(1) Clean the plastic base with a general purpose cleaner (like Formula 409
®
or ArmorAll
®
) and a soft damp cloth.
(2) In the extreme Northern USA or Canada, bring the turf indoors for the Winter months by rolling it turf side out
onto the core that it came on.
Use care so as not to crease or fold the turf!
(3) Debris may be removed from the turf by vacuuming or blowing with a leaf blower. Dust, pet waste residue,
and the like on the turf is usually removed by rain, but can also be removed with a garden hose.
(4) Mold and mildew growth on the turf is an unlikely occurrence if your green has been properly located away
from sprinkler heads. But should it occur, contact Backyard Golf for materials and procedures to remove it.
