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.
