(1) 3/4” x 48” Long Re-Bar (Consult with local building code)
(1) 3/4” Socket Wrench and Box Wrench
(1) Rubber Mallet
(1) Lifting Device (i.e. Crane)
(1) Concrete
(1) Leveling Device
Unpack all parts and check against parts list to ensure that all have been
included.
Inspect all parts for damage. Report any damages to the trucking
company.
I. Site Prep
1. Determine the proper location of foul poles on the playing field, as shown
in figure 1. Dig the footing holes to the dimensions as shown on the
illustration on the next page. These are suggested dimensions for
average soil conditions, consult local building codes.
2. Pour 6” concrete footing pad and allow fully curing, or use two concrete
blocks or crushed stone, to rest foul pole on (figure 2).

II. Permanent Installation
Lower Pole:
1. Install two anti-rotation rods into the bottom side of the lower foul pole.
Center rods within the pole and install 1/2” flange nuts on both ends (see
figure 3).
2. Install the “safety stop bolt” hardware into the third hole from the top (see
figure 4). This will allow the top pole to rest inside the lower foul pole
during assembly.
3. Place the lower pole into the footing and fully support it in a plumbed
position.
4. Pour concrete into the footing and reinforce with six 3/4” x 48” long rebar
(consult local building code. Rebar not included, to be provided by
installer) evenly space around the spot for the lower foul pole.
5. Slope the top of the footing for drainage if desired. Wait for concrete to
fully cure (approx. 48 hours) before proceeding to attach the top foul pole
section.
6. Now proceed to the top pole section.

Top Pole:
1. Install the yellow powder coated cap on top of foul pole with #12-14 self-
drilling screw (figure 6).
2. Using a lifting device (crane) insert the top foul pole into the lower foul
pole. Rotate the post so that the panels are to the inside of the field.
3. Line up and orient the panels in the top foul pole to be perpendicular to the
foul line. Drill two holes using the pre-drill hole as a guide in the lower
foul pole. Note drill holes for 1/2” hardware.
4. Attach the top and lower foul poles together with 1/2" hardware as shown
on figure 7.
5. After assembly is complete, fill gaps around the joints between the top and
lower pole with polyurethane or silicone caulk / sealant.
6. Spray / paint expose hardware if desired.
