IMPORTANT NOTICE
ƒ
It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that the goalpost, gooseneck, and
crossbar are properly located and lined up with respect to the field. Proper location
and alignment should be confirmed with each step.
ƒ
It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that the crossbar is level and the uprights
are plumb.
o All critical holes are to be drilled by the installer in an effort to help
ensure that all components are square, plumb, and level.
o Verify after every drilling operation that affected components are still
square, plumb, and/or level. Correct as necessary.
o It is recommended that drilled holes be piloted with a 3/16” drill bit, and
opened up incrementally to the final size.

maneuver into place. To maintain control and prevent injury when moving heavy
components, ensure you have a sufficient number of technicians to support the
components without dropping them.
