POLE CARE AND SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The life of your basketball system depends on many variables. The climate, exposure to corrosives
such as salt, pesticides, or herbicides, and excessive use or misuse can all contribute to pole
failure, which may cause property damage or personal injury.
Check your basketball system frequently for loose hardware, excessive wear, and signs of corrosion.
For safety reasons, and to prolong the life of your basketball system, you must take the
following preventive measures.
a. Check all Nuts and Bolts. If any are loose, tighten them.
b. Check all parts for excessive wear and tear. If necessary, replace any parts that have been
worn or damaged through usage. Contact our Customer Service Department for replacement
parts.
c. Inspect the Warning Sticker on the pole. If it is ripped, faded, or illegible, call our Customer
Service Department to request a replacement Sticker.
d. Check all pole sections for visible rust or chipped or cracked paint. If either are present, do
the following:
1. Use an emery cloth to completely remove any rust or chipped paint.
2. Clean the area with a damp cloth and allow it to dry.
3. Apply two coats of a rust preventative, high gloss enamel paint to the area. Allow the
paint to dry between coats.
IF RUST HAS PENETRATED THROUGH THE POLE ANYWHERE, REPLACE IT
IMMEDIATELY!
