Use calibrated torque tools and certified bolts to ensure structural integrity and load balance.
Attach the board to the frame, align vertically and horizontally, then mount the rim securely.
Check Breakaway Rim flexibility, verify standard height (3.05 m), and precise board positioning.
Install all protective pads and nets, then deliver the court with an official Operation & Maintenance Manual.

Following a clear inspection and cleaning schedule helps extend the backboard’s lifespan and maintain optimal performance.
Check for loose bolts, rust, cracks, or deep scratches on the board and frame.
Recalibrate the Breakaway Rim, tighten bolts, and inspect all structural connections.
Use warm water and mild detergent. Avoid solvents or alcohol-based cleaners that can damage acrylic surfaces.
If signs of wear appear, replace them promptly to ensure consistent ball rebound and accuracy.
