Instructions
for 1000 Series Sets POLES AND NET SET UP
Drive two stakes into ground Figure A (sledgehammer is
recommended). Connect each snap on guylines to stakes. Beach
set up requires that you bury sand anchor plates about 3'
down in sand with rope leader protruding out of sand for
snap to hook to. CAUTION: STAKES MUST BE DRIVEN ALL THE WAY DOWN INTO THE
GROUND, WITH ONLY ROPE LOOP SHOWING ABOVE GROUND.
Now with pole in closed position, attach two guylines per
side, to top of pole. Connect top net cable to pole using
snap on each side Figure B & C. Remove hitch pin and extend
pole to desired height using grooves and dots on poles to
line up the hole for pin. Double dots are 3-1/12" above 8’;
single dot is 5-1/2" above. The two plastic base plates are
placed under poles on sand or grass, this will keep pole
from sinking into ground. The ratchet buckle needs one turn
of webbing on it to lock. Then you can apply tension to the
cam buckle side, by pulling downwards on cam buckles with
hand loop using your body weight. After you have applied all
you can to the top cable, Then adjust poles to a vertical
posi-tion, but leave a slight angle towards stakes. The
further out you place your anchors the more pull back you
will get on the top cable. Next ratchet the guylines on the
other side. This should pull the poles back into a vertical
position. The ratchet can only hold so many raps of webbing,
do not put more than it can hold on its drum. The ratchet
guylines can input up to 500 lb. of torque,
USE CAUTION & COMMON SENSE! When releasing tension
use cam-buckle guylines, not ratchet guylines. From time to
time apply WD-40 to ratchet and cam-buckles to extend life.
Next step is to install bottom tension straps. Install
cam-buckle strap on each side of bottom net cable and pull
as hard as you can. Figure B. Note that cam buckle strap has
a black hook that attaches to the backside of steel cam
buckle.
Try not to drop pole or ratchet in sand. It's recommend,
that the poles be pulled apart after each use on sand and
hosed out with clean water and let dry. Also, do not carry
the stakes in the system carrying case, to much weight,
carry the guylines with the net bag. Any problems or
questions call.
COURT LINES
An ideal spot would be a flat grass or beach area free of
holes or foreign objects with no obstructions or wires
overhead. Lay out web lines on the sand or grass to form a
rectangle. Attach together to form a rectangle by threading
loose end of webbing through other end, of each plastic
buckle, as pre-attached end is already threaded. Short
lengths go together and long lengths go together to form a
rectangle. You ask, why adjustable? Because webbing
stretches depending on how much tension is applied. You will
need a tape measure or 60' non-stretchable rope to adjust
court to exact size. Once size is set you should not have to
adjust again as long as you apply about the same tension
each time you setup. Use some tape to secure loose ends of
webbing at each plastic buckle. Attach small plastic sand
anchor plate with s-hook to steel ring at each corner of web
line, at each of the four corners. Bury plates down into the
sand at a 45-degree angle to the corner of the court. Do not
pull too hard on bungee cord, just enough to get a straight
line. For setup on grass, use the bungee nail stakes
enclosed and drive all the way into the ground. Use plastic
roll up rack for line storage. CAUTION: NEVER LEAVE OUTSIDE OVERNIGHT. ROPE LINES ON THE
GROUND MAY BE TRIPPED OVER, ALWAYS KEEP SMALL CHILDREN AWAY
FROM PLAYING AREA, AND INFORM ALL OTHERS OF POTENTIAL
HAZARD. THE SUN WILL DETERIORATE THE ROPE, DO NOT LEAVE
OUTSIDE UNLESS IN USE. WHEN REMOVING NAIL STAKES FROM THE
GROUND ALWAYS GRAB BUNGEE CORD UP CLOSE TO NAIL AND PULL
STRAIGHT UP OR DIG OUT OF SAND. BE CAREFUL AROUND BOUNDARY
LINES & GUYLINES THAT MAYBE TRIPPED OVER!
