1. If applicable, follow the instructions provided with the Floor Sockets (C) to prepare the court for system
installation, use the diagram on page 3 to locate the Floor Sockets (C) on your court.
2. Place the VB60 Standards (A) and (B) in the Floor Sockets (C) with the Slider Bars toward the inside of
the court. See Figure 4.
3. Uncoil approximately 24” of the web strap from the winch to allow for net tensioning.
4. Remove the VB1250KU Net (D) from the box
and tie an overhand knot on one end of the top
rope creating a loop. Note: There may be a
factory tied knot already on your net.
5. Attach the loop in #4 above to the hook on the top
of the VB60 Non-Winch Standard (B).
See Figure 1
6. Slide the net along the top rope until the end of
the net is 1' to 2' from the VB60 Non-Winch
Standard (B). The top rope will have excess
length on the opposite end to allow for wider
location of the floor sockets. Don't cut off any
excess top rope at this point. See Figure 1

7. Tie a second overhand knot similar to the one on the other
end of the top rope at a location that you estimate will
allow the top rope of the net to be properly tensioned with
the winch for play when the top rope is attached to the
winch web strap. This might take some trial and error until
you get the knot in the correct location. Note that the knot
will need to be neat and tight to be able to slide freely
through the space between the rope pulley and the post
when installing and removing the net from the posts.
Attach the loop formed by the knot to the spring clip on the
end of the web strap. See Figure 2
8. Attach the preformed crimped loop on one end of the bottom rope to the hook on the bottom of the slider
bar on the VB60 Non-Winch Standard (B). Attach the other end of the bottom rope with the spring hook
on the rope ratchet to the VB60 Winch Standard (A). Tension the bottom rope by pulling the rope through
the bottom rope ratchet. See Figure 3.
9. Following the instructions provided loop two
small Rope Ratchet Tensioners (G) around each
standard and through the holes on the net side
tapes. Tension the net sides by pulling the end of
the ropes. Release the Rope Ratchet Tensioners
(G) by pressing on the release button. Rope
Ratchet Tensioners (G) should be rotated close
to the pole and behind the padding to prevent
contact with players. See Figure 4.
10. Once the VB1250KU (D) is attached it must be adjusted to its desired height. Loosen the winch to release
the net tension. After the net tension has been released, loosen the locking knobs on the Slider Bars to
allow the Slider Bars to freely move up and down. Adjust VB1250KU Net (D) to desired height. Once the
top of the VB1250KU Net (D) is at the desired height, tighten the Slider Bars locking knobs and net top
tension crank. See Figure 4.
11. Once the VB1250KU Net (D) is tensioned at the desired height, install the Height Labels (H). Line up the
appropriate line on the Height Label (H) with the machined height indicator mark on the Slider Bars. Use a
credit card or something similar to smooth all air bubble from Height Labels (H).
12. When you are confident that your net set up is correct remove any excess top and bottom rope leaving
approximately 36" of excess. Singe the ends of both ropes.
13. Install padding and antennas (if applicable).
Caution!
The VB1250KU net is designed to fit Bison Match Point installation with pole locations between 34’ and 40’
by customizing the length of the top rope Do Not cut the excess rope until you are confident you have the
correct length. Length will depend on the distance between the standards. Nets cannot be returned after
unwrapping. Call Bison Customer Service for assistance at #800-247-7668.
