INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
9) Install Mesh
1. Cut one piece of mesh (2" X 9ga X 8') 7'-6" long to be installed between the rear vertical posts Item 8.
Attach the piece of mesh using one 8' long tension bar on each side of the mesh along with tension bands
and carriage bolts provided. Use tension bands on 18" to 20" centers (6 bands for each side of mesh).
The mesh must be tight. Remove one or two strands from ends as necessary to achieve proper tension.
2. Cut two pieces of wire mesh (2" X 9ga X 10') 7'-6" long to be installed between the front and rear posts
Items 8&9. Use an 8' long tension bar along the rear vertical post and a 10' long tension bar along
the front vertical post. Attach each piece of mesh to the posts using tension bands and hardware
provided (6 bands for each rear post and 7 bands for each front post). The mesh must be tight; remove
one or two strands from ends as necessary to achieve proper tension.
3. Cut the top of the mesh on the bias where it extends over the top hood rails. Twist the cut ends around
each other to prevent the mesh from unraveling. Secure the mesh to the rails along the bias cut with tie
wire every 8".
4. Secure the top of the mesh between the rear posts to the horizontal rail with the tie wire every 12".
5. Secure the bottom of the mesh to the bottom horizontal rails with the tie wire every 12".
6. Secure the mesh to the horizontal rails with the tie wire every 12".
7. The remaining piece of mesh is cut to approximate size for the hood. Position the mesh so the widest
section is along the top hood rail. Stretch the wire from side to side to determine if any strands need to be
removed to achieve a proper fit; if so, the easiest method is to remove the strands from the center and
splice the mesh back together rather than cut the mesh on the bias and twist the cut ends back together.
8. Center the mesh on the hood so the front edge is flush with the top hood rail. Secure the mesh in the
center with tie wire. Stretch to each side while securing the mesh to the top hood rail every 8". Pull the
mesh outward and secure around the perimeter to the three outer rails every 8" with tie wire.
9. Secure the mesh to the hood rail with tie wire every 12".
10. Inspect backstop for loose hardware and tighten as necessary. Some excess hardware is included
and should be saved for maintenance purposes. Look for sharp wires and either cut or turn back into the
mesh. Cover footings with turf or dirt.
