Introduction
Than you for your purchase of a Model 2400 Up Folding Wall Mount Bac stop. To ensure that our
equipment will provide years of use to you, we are including this operation, and maintenance guide.
This guide will provide information on the proper operating procedures, and preventative
maintenance of your gymnasium up folding wall mount bac stop.
Do not ma e substitutions for any factory parts. If any parts are missing, do not substitute non-
factory parts. Please contact your authorized dealer or manufacturer if any parts are missing or
damaged.
It is recommended that an individual who has been properly trained perform operation of the Up
Folding wall mount bac stop. No one under the age of 18 should operate the bac stop, unless
properly supervised.
To prevent normal wear and tear from shortening the life of the bac stop, preventative maintenance
inspections and repairs should be performed at least once per year. If the bac stop is subject to high
or unusual usage, inspections should be scheduled to occur more frequently. If items are found to be
nonconforming, replacements can be ordered from an authorized dealer. When contacting your
dealer, please have information regarding the name of the project, and any applicable warranty
information.
Please note that manufacturer assumes no responsibility for the building structure to support its
products. It is the responsibility of the building designers to determine the correct structure size to
support our products. We will provide your structural engineers with all required weight and loading
information for the project in order for them to calculate the appropriate structure.

Locate, identify and count all parts before starting the installation to ensure that all are correct and
correspond to the pac ing list/production drawings. If any parts are missing or damaged, DO NOT
SUBSTITUTE. Contact your authorized dealer or the manufacturer for assistance in obtaining the
correct part.
Also review production drawings to ensure that building conditions have not changed since the initial
field chec . Verify overall height and width noted on drawings.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION
Before installing a wall mounted bac stop unit, it is imperative the structural integrity of the wall has
been evaluated and approved by an architect or structural engineer for the loads that will be imparted
to the wall by the bac stop.
The best wall
construction for use with
wall mounted bac stops
is concrete masonry units
(CMU) or solid concrete
panel. Further, through
bolting of the wood pads
to the wall is the recommended method of attachment. However, when through bolting is not
possible, the anchors used must be of a type that will provide at least 5 times the load listed for the
anchor point of the unit. All anchors, including through bolts, must be minimum ½” diameter and at
least SAE Grade 5 equivalent material.
Mounting the wall mounted bac stop to a wood or metal stud structure is not recommended or
approved by the manufacturer unless the structure has been reinforced as specifically designed by an
architect or structural engineer for the desired wall mounted unit.
Please refer to the load charts on the following page for information concerning the specific unit
being installed.

INSTALLATION
Installation instructions below are general in nature. Your exact installation needs to follow the parts
and any specific instruction included in your specific project’s production drawings.
1. Before installing the wood pads on the wall, you must first preassemble the hinge brac ets and chain
brac ets onto the wood buc s.
2. Install the chain support brac ets and pulley support brac et onto the top wood pad using the hardware
shown in the above illustration. It will be necessary to drill the holes in the center of the wood pad to
mount the center pulley support brac et. Turn the wood pad over and use the counter bored holes as a
guide to drill the 7/16” dial holes for mounting the brac ets.
3. Install the hinge brac ets on the center and lower wood pad using the hardware shown in the above
illustrations.
4. The wood pads are now ready to be installed onto the wall.

WOOD PAD LOCATIONS
Always refer to specific dimensions outlined in the production drawings shipped for the specific
project. Dimensions of the specific project may vary from the dimensions outlined below.
The upper wood pad with the chain anchors should be mounted in the same plane as the two frame
mounting wood pads. The load information for the upper chain anchor and pulley are based on the
wood pad located in the same plane. Contact the manufacturer for correct reaction loads if there is a
wall condition that does not allow the wood pads for the chain anchors to be in the same plane as the
frame pads.

WOOD PAD WALL ATTACHMENT
When attaching the wood pads to the wall, it is important to place the anchors in a location that will
not reduce the strength of the wood. Anchors should be ½” diameter and the holes in the wood pads
should be no larger than 9/16” in diameter. The centerline of the holes should not be closer than 2”
from the edge or end of the wood pads.
Refer to the illustration below for the recommended locations of the anchors on the wood pads.
Upper chain mount and cable pulley wood pads are shown in the illustration below. The lower two
wood pads (i.e. frame mounting pads) will have two anchors on each end as shown in the illustration
and only one anchor located directly in the center of the wood pad.

Install the outer pipe weldments to the hinge points on the lower two wood pads. Install the bushings
(Item 6) into both sides of the pipe before installing the pipe into the hinge brac et.
Once the pipe has been installed into the hinge brac et and the ½” x 3 1/2” bolt is installed, add the
½” nylon loc nut and tighten until the nut just engages the hinge brac et.
Do not overtighten the nut as this will cause binding and excessive wear on the bushings and the
outer tube.
The attachment is the same for all four pipes.
Slide the inner extension pipes into
the outer extension pipes. Install a
flange bushing (Item 6) on each
side of the inner extension tubes.
Install the hinge brac ets onto each
inner pipe and
Install the ½” x 3 1/2” bolt and add
the ½” nylon loc nut and tighten
until the nut just engages the hinge
brac et.
Do not overtighten the nut as this
will cause binding and excessive
wear on the bushings and the inner
tube.
Slide the extension tube until the
distance from the wall to the face of the hinge brac et is equal to the FOB – 2.5” or FOB – 11.5”
when a height adjuster is to be used.
Install the set screw (Item 28) into the outer extension tube and lightly tighten the set screw.
