The basketball system may be adjusted from 7 1/2 feet to 10 feet.
ONLY ADULTS SHOULD ADJUST THE HEIGHT OF THE SYSTEM.
To Raise or Lower the Hoop:
a. Using at least two adults, tip the system forward and rest the Rim on a non-
scratching surface. Do not scrape the powder coating off the Rim while adjusting
the system, or you could void the product warranty and cause rusting.
b. With one person holding the system at all times, remove the Adjustment Knob
and the Carriage Bolt. Adjust the system to the desired height and replace the
Bolt and Knob.
c. Make sure the Adjustment Knob is secure
before standing the system back up to
playing position
OPERATION OF HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM
The system must only be moved by people capable of
handling its weight. Children should not be allowed to move the system.
CAUTION: The system must only be moved on its Wheels. Sliding the
Base may damage the Base which could result in leakage and the
system tipping over.
MOVING THE SYSTEM
a. Adjust the system to its lowest position.
b. Stand in front of the system and pull on the Pole until the unit is balanced on
its Wheels.
c. Move the system to the desired location and carefully set the Base down.

the cement in each spot. Place the Cement Anchors (AAQ) in the drilled

d. Secure the 3/8” x 1” Hex Bolts (AB) into the Cement Anchors.
To prevent the Base from being punctured, install the cement anchors in a way that will not
permit them to come in contact with the Base. The hardware used with the cement anchor could
puncture the Base, resulting in leakage, which could cause the system to tip over, potentially
resulting in serious personal injuries. Do not attempt to use the portable unit without rst lling
the Base with weight and securing the cement anchors. The system may fall over without being
secured to the ground and could cause serious personal injuries.
WARNING
Note: Using the Cement Anchors cannot replace fi lling the Base with sand or water.
The Base must be fi lled and secured with the Cement Anchors. Both are necessary
for a secure and stable system.

Owners must ensure that all players know and follow these rules for safe
operation of the system.
Only hang from the rim briefl y to regain balance or avoid injuring others. Release
the rim as soon as safely possible.
During play, especially when performing dunk type activities, keep player’s face
away from the backboard, rim, and net. Serious injury could occur if teeth/face
come in contact with the backboard, rim, or net. Player should wear a mouth
guard during play.
• Do not slide, climb, or play on base or pole.
Completely ll base according to manufacturer’s instructions. Never leave the
unit standing in an upright position without fi rst lling the base with weight or
the system will tip quickly causing serious personal injury.
• When adjusting height or moving system, keep hands and fi ngers away from
moving parts.
• Do not allow children to move or adjust system.
• Do not wear jewelry (rings, watches, necklaces, etc.) during play. Objects may
entangle in net.
Keep organic material away from pole base. Grass, litter, etc. could cause
corrosion and/or deterioration.
• Surface beneath the base must be smooth and free of gravel or other objects.
Cuélguese del aro sólo en forma breve, para recuperar el equilibrio o evitar
lesionar a otros jugadores. Suéltese del aro lo más pronto que pueda hacerlo
con seguridad.
Durante el juego, especialmente al embocar violentamente de alto, la cara
de los jugadores debe mantenerse alejada del tablero, el aro y la red. Pueden
producirse lesiones graves si los dientes o la cara entran en contacto con el
tablero, el aro o la red. Los jugadores deben usar un protector bucal durante
el juego.
No se deslice, no trepe ni juegue sobre la base o el poste.
Llene la base completamente siguiendo las instrucciones del fabricante.
Nunca deje la unidad en posición de uso sin haber llenado previamente la base
con material de contrapeso, pues el sistema podría tumbarse rápidamente y
causar graves lesiones personales.
Mantenga las manos y los dedos alejados de las piezas movibles cuando
regule la altura o desplace el sistema.
No deje que los niños regulen ni desplacen el sistema.
No use joyas (anillos, relojes, collares o gargantillas, etc.) durante el juego.
Estos objetos pueden engancharse en la red.
La superfi cie donde se coloque la base debe estar lisa y desprovista de
piedras, grava u otros objetos. Las perforaciones pueden originar pérdidas, y
éstas pueden hacer que el sistema se tumbe.
No permita que la base del poste entre en contacto con materiales
orgánicos. El pasto, los desechos animales, etc., pueden causar corrosión y/o
deterioros.
Controle el poste y todas las piezas metálicas una vez al mes en busca de
signos visibles de corrosión (oxidación, picaduras, escamado). Elimine todo
rastro de óxido y vuelva a pintar con esmalte para exteriores. Si el óxido ha
penetrado cualquier pieza de acero, reemplace esa pieza de inmediato.
Inspeccione el sistema antes de cada uso para verifi car que es
adecuadamente contrapesado, que los elementos de jación no estén fl ojos,
que no haya desgaste excesivo, inestabilidad ni signos de corrosión. Si
encuentra irregularidades, repárelas antes de usar el sistema.
Nunca juegue con un equipo dañado.
No use el sistema en presencia de vientos fuertes o condiciones climáticas
adversas, ya que puede tumbarse. Coloque la unidad en su posición de
almacenamiento y/o en una zona a resguardo del viento, lejos de propiedades
personales que puedan dañarse si el sistema se cae, y de líneas de suministro
de energía.
No use el sistema para levantar ningún objeto. El mecanismo está diseñado

Punctures cause leakage and could cause system to tip over.
Once a month check pole and all metal parts for signs of corrosion (rust, pitting,
chipping). Completely remove rust and repaint with exterior enamel. If rust has
penetrated any steel part, replace that part immediately.
• Check system before each use for proper ballast, loose hardware, excessive
wear, instability, and signs of corrosion and repair before use.
• Never play on damaged equipment.
Do not use system during windy or severe weather. System may tip over. Place
system in an area protected from the wind or in an area away from property that
may be damaged if the system falls, and from overhead power lines.
• Do not use the system to lift or hoist anything. The mechanism is designed
to lift only the weight of the backboard and rim. Do not hang anything from
the handle, rim backboard, or lifter arms as this will damage the system and

these rules for safe operation of the system.
Cuélguese del aro sólo en forma breve, para recuperar el
equilibrio o evitar lesionar a otros jugadores. Suéltese del
aro lo más pronto que pueda hacerlo con seguridad.
Durante el juego, especialmente al embocar violentamente
de alto, la cara de los jugadores debe mantenerse alejada
del tablero, el aro y la red. Pueden producirse lesiones
graves si los dientes o la cara entran en contacto con
el tablero, el aro o la red. Los jugadores deben usar un
protector bucal durante el juego.
• No se deslice, no trepe ni juegue sobre el poste.
Mantenga las manos y los dedos alejados de las piezas
movibles cuando regule la altura del sistema.
• No deje que los niños regulen el sistema.
No use joyas (anillos, relojes, collares o gargantillas, etc.)
durante el juego. Estos objetos pueden engancharse en la
red.
No permita que la base del poste entre en contacto con
materiales orgánicos. El pasto, los desechos animales, etc.,
pueden causar corrosión y/o deterioros.
Controle el poste y todas las piezas metálicas una vez al
mes en busca de signos visibles de corrosión (oxidación,
picaduras, escamado). Elimine todo rastro de óxido y
vuelva a pintar con esmalte para exteriores. Si el óxido ha
penetrado cualquier pieza de acero, reemplace esa
pieza
de inmediato.
Inspeccione el sistema antes de cada uso para verificar
que los elementos de fijación no estén flojos, que no haya
desgaste excesivo, inestabilidad ni signos de corrosión.
Si encuentra irregularidades, repárelas antes de usar el
sistema.
