2. Product Features

3. Package Contents

Verify that all components are present before beginning assembly:

• Basketball Hoop Assembly (Backboard, Rim, Net, Pole Sections)
• Base Unit with Wheels
• Hardware Kit (screws, nuts, wrenches)
• Instruction Manual

4. Setup Instructions

Assembly is recommended with two people for ease and safety. Refer to the included detailed manual for step-by-step diagrams.

1. Assemble the Backboard and Rim: Attach the basketball rim and net to the backboard using the provided hardware. Ensure all connections are secure.
2. Connect Pole Sections: Join the various pole sections according to the manual's diagrams. Pay attention to the orientation of each section.
3. Attach Pole to Base: Securely fasten the assembled pole to the base unit using the designated bolts and nuts.
4. Fill the Base for Stability: The base must be filled to prevent tipping. You can use either water or sand:
   • Water: Fill the base with up to 198 lbs of water. This allows for easier movement if you plan to relocate the hoop frequently.
   • Sand: For maximum stability, fill the base with up to 242 lbs of sand. Sand provides greater resistance against strong winds and aggressive play.
   • Alternatively, a heavy object of 50 lbs can be placed on the base if sand or water filling is not immediately feasible.
5. Final Checks: Before use, ensure all bolts are tightened, and the base is adequately filled and stable.

5. Operating Instructions

1. Adjusting Height: To change the hoop height, locate the adjustment knob on the pole. Untwist and lift the knob, then slide the pole to your desired height. Once the desired height is reached, re-engage and tighten the knob to secure the pole. For the lowest setting (3.5 ft), a specific pole section needs to be removed as per the detailed manual.
2. Moving the Hoop: To move the basketball hoop, tilt the unit onto its wheels located at the base. Ensure the base is filled to provide sufficient weight for stability during movement. Roll the hoop to the desired location and then carefully lower it back onto its full base for play.

6. Maintenance

• Regular Cleaning: Clean the backboard and pole with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.
• Check Stability: Periodically check the base for water or sand levels, especially after strong winds or heavy use. Refill as necessary to maintain stability.
• Inspect Hardware: Regularly inspect all bolts, nuts, and connections for tightness. Tighten any loose hardware to ensure structural integrity.
• Net Replacement: The nylon net may wear over time due to weather exposure and use. Replace the net as needed to maintain optimal play.
• Winter Care: If storing outdoors in freezing temperatures, ensure the base is filled with sand or an anti-freeze solution if using water, to prevent cracking.

7. Troubleshooting

• Hoop feels wobbly: Ensure the base is completely filled with water or sand. Check all pole connections and hardware for tightness. If on an uneven surface, try to relocate to a flatter area or use shims under the base for leveling.
• Difficulty adjusting height: Ensure the adjustment knob is fully untwisted and lifted before attempting to slide the pole. Clean any debris from the pole sections that might obstruct movement.
• Backboard appears scratched/damaged: While the backboard is shatterproof PC, prolonged exposure to harsh elements or impacts can cause cosmetic damage. Ensure proper care and storage.
