TOOLS REQUIRED:
(1) 3/8” Socket Wrench and Box Wrench (1) 7/16” Nut Driver
(1) 9/16” Socket Wrench and Box Wrench (1) Cable Cutters
SPECIAL NOTES:
•Max spacing between poles should not exceed 20 ft.
•The net may be broken up into sections to reduce weight and make handling
more manageable. Net sections typically do not exceed 150 ft.
•Net sections should be joined together at a pole, not between poles.
•Nets should be removed and stored after the season is over.
•Remove and or lower and secure all netting if a major storm or extreme
winds, in excess of 50 mph, are forecasted.
Layout & Excavation:
Clear working area from obstructions. Determine the proper location for the poles on the
field. The spacing between poles is determined by the net overall length divided by the
number of spaces between poles (number of poles minus 1). Note that the maximum
spacing is 20 feet center to center, do not exceed this dimension. Spacing of poles is
consistent, unless an obstruction is unmovable.
Figure 1
Example 1: A net system that is 72 ft long will require 5 poles. The
spacing between poles will be 18 ft. (72 / (5-1) = 18)
Example 2: A net system that is 160 ft long will require 9 poles. The
spacing between poles will be 20 ft. (160 / (9-1) = 20)
Pole spaces = Number of poles - 1

NOTE: FOR PERMANENT POLES (NO SLEEVE), IT IS BEST TO SLIDE A SINGLE BAND
CLAMP FROM BOTTOM OF POLE FOR EASE OF INSTALLATION (SEE FIGURE 4).

Install Sleeves:
Dig footing holes and install the ground sleeves as shown in Figure 2.
Pour 6” concrete footing and allow fully curing, or use two concrete blocks or crushed
stone, to rest sleeve on. Wait 24 hours before inserting poles.
Figure 2
Install Pole Hardware:
Assemble 3/8” eyebolt hardware & 1/4" cleat hardware and pole cap onto the poles as
shown in Figure 3 & Figure 4. Route the hoisting rope through the pulley. Attach the
snap hook to the hoisting rope with a bowline knot. Temporarily attach the free end of the
hoisting rope to the snap hook. See note on swivel pulley feature on page 6 of 8.

Install Poles:
Before inserting the poles into the sleeves, check to make sure:
1. The cleat installed opposite of pulley.
2. Run the hoisting rope thru pulley
a. Secure both ends together (loosely).
3. Note orientation (see Figure 5).

Slide the cord loops onto the poles and place them just above the cleat so they will be
held in place while installing the poles.

Net:
Lay the net out lengthwise and cut the 3/16” coated aircraft cable to length, extending
each end enough to make up the loop. Make up a loop, as shown in Figure 6, on both
ends of the cable. Attach a cable to both the top and bottom edges of the net using the
cable ties.

Make sure screw pin is tight.
Recommend securing screw pin with wire tie.

Install Net:
Lay the net sections out lengthwise along the base of the poles. Attach D-Rings to the net
at each intermediate pole location. Attach the hoisting ropes to each cable end and D-
Ring. Slowly raise the net up, attaching the sliding cable loops to the net approximately
every 5 ft. While raising the net, attach any net sections together using cable ties located
about 12” o.c.
Once the net is fully raised, secure the bottom edge of net to each pole as shown in Figure 7.

•Before and after each season, thoroughly inspect the net for wear. Repair any
holes to prevent them from getting wider.
•Remove and store the net after the seasons use.
•Remove and or lower and secure all netting if a major storm or extreme winds
more than 50 mph, are forecasted.
•When the poles are removed, ground sleeves can be covered by ground sleeve covers
sold separately.
