3Introduction
IMPORTANT NOTE: The carbon fiber pole will make some “popping” noises the first few
times that the net is installed and fully tensioned. This is normal—it is the sound of the
carbon fibers “settling” into the resin—and should not be cause for alarm. The poles may
deflect as much as 3.75” under net tension (depending on the make and model of net),
which is a significant improvement over comparable aluminum poles. It is important to
note that due to the single piece design of these standards, their deflection may appear
more pronounced than it does with an aluminum telescoping design; in actuality, these
carbon poles will deflect an inch or more less than aluminum.
NOTE ON NET STRETCH: The Flex Net supplied with this system will stretch slightly during the
first few uses. This is a natural consequence of the headband fibers being stretched
under tension. During this break-in period, the headband and net body may sag during
use. Simply increase tension to remove the sag.
These instructions assume that the appropriate ground sleeves have been correctly
installed:
•The inside bottom surface of the ground sleeves must be 10” below ground level
(Figure 3-1).
•The PVB-8000 standards will fit most 3-1/2” inner diameter ground sleeves (or 4” ID
sleeves with adapter).
•The PVB 8500 will fit most 3’’ inner diameter ground sleeves.
•The bottom 10 inches of the standards have been covered with an outer layer to
improve fit in most ground sleeves. If fit is too tight, cut outer layer with knife and
remove.
•The Flex-Net will work with ground sleeves spaced 35’ to 37’ apart on center

NCAA and NFHS rules require that the upright standards must be installed at least 3’3”
(1m) outside the court boundaries. Jaypro recommends 36’ spacing on center to satisfy
both regulations.

1. Install each upright into the ground sleeves*.
*The bottom 10 inches of the standards have been covered with an outer layer to
improve fit in most ground sleeves. If fit is too tight, cut outer layer with knife and
remove.
2. Follow instructions included with winch to set the winch clamp to the correct
upright diameter (PVB-8000: 3.5”, PVB-8500: 3”).
3. Install winch to one upright using the socket cap screw and acorn nut (Figure
6-1, items 1 & 2).
4. Fasten the clamp together using the cap screws supplied with the winch (Figure
6-1, item 4-1).

Figure 6-2: Install anchor strap.
6. Attach one end of net to anchor strap, then attach other end to winch strap
(Figure 6-3).
Figure 6-3: Attach net to straps.
7. Adjust the length of the anchor strap as necessary to center net on court.
***The net will stretch ~6 –8 inches when tension is applied so you must factor this
in before applying tension when centering the net.

8. Tension the net by turning the winch handle clockwise

.Adjust anchor strap as
necessary to keep net centered.
9. Verify net heights and net centering. The uprights will deflect inward and
downward due to net tension; you may need to adjust their heights and/or re-
center the net. WARNING: Release tension from the net before removing height
adjust pin.
10. Attach the bottom net straps to each upright as shown in Figure 6-4. Wrap Velcro
straps around buckles for additional player safety.
Figure 6-4: Secure bottom net straps to uprights.
11. Attach net antennae and tapes according to instructions included with
antennae set.
12. Install pads around each upright.
7Maintenance
Your LadyPro Carbon Volleyball System is designed to provide years of play; however, it is
recommended that the components be inspected at least once every season, for signs
of excessive wear. Key areas to inspect include (but are not limited to):
▪Strap webbing
▪Net
▪Winch mechanism
▪Screws and nuts
If you require additional information or support maintaining your volleyball system, please
contact the Jaypro Sports customer support team, Monday through Friday, 8:30AM to
5:00 PM (EST), at 1-800-243-0533.

NCAA and NFHS rules stipulate that there be no more than ¾” of sag in the net
headband when fully tensioned.
