8. To adjust the height of the rim loosen the
telescoping lock bolt, then loosen the lock
handle while gripping the adjustment
handles. Adjust the pole upwards until the
top of the goal measures 10’ from the

the arrows on the 10’ label to the already
attached “Rim Height Indicator” label.
Adjust the pole downward so that the goal
measures 9’ 6” from the playing surface.
Lock the pole and apply the appropriate
height indicator label to the plated inner
tube. Continue to lower the goal at 6”
increments, being careful to lock the pole
each time, and apply the appropriate height
labels until the height of 8’ from playing
surface is reached. See Figure 4

to release the lower front padding. This

Warning!!!
Never use the backboard to push or pull the system as unwarranted backboard breakage will likely occur.

The recent popularity of adjustable height basketball systems has increased the risk of dental injury, particularly to young
players, due to players getting their teeth caught in the net.
