Step 1:

Remove the two nets, two sets of green posts, two retractable ratchets, two 2” bungee cords, and the measuring string.

Step 2:

Attach one set of green posts to each tennis net post with the velcro cinch straps.

Make sure the Ball Grabber logo is on the top of the green posts. If you are by yourself use your knees to keep the green posts in place while attaching the velcro straps.

The sides of the green posts should be flush with the net posts. If not adjust the metal strap with a dime to tighten or loosen.The metal straps are currently set for 3” net posts. Using the measuring cord step on the washer, pull the string vertical close to the net post, then use the 20” red mark to line up the metal strap of the green post to the red mark height.

Step 3:

Roll out the Ball Grabbers on each side of the tennis net with the black net band furthest from tennis net and the grommets and carabiners closest to the net.

Step 4:

Attach the long cord with the carabiner to the green posts that should already be attached to the net post.

Go to the opposite net post. Pull out a 3-4 feet of the strap of the ratchets and attach the S hook through the loop of the Ball Grabbers net.

The short ends of the retractable ratchet straps attach to the eye bolt on the green posts with the S hook.

Step 5:

Using the retractable ratchet begin tightening one Ball Grabber by lifting the lever up and down.  Once the top of the Ball Grabber begins to come off the ground stop and tighten the opposite side.  If you tighten one side too much the green posts may fall off.

Go back to the original side and tighten some more and then go to the opposite side. Using the measuring cord, line up the top of each Ball Grabber with the 14” black line. Do not over tension. When you reduce tension with the ratchet always pull the S hook toward the ratchet and push the center button.

Step 6:

Attach the bottom of the Ball Grabbers with the carabiners. Then using the 2” bungee cords hook the outside carabiners closest to the net posts and pull tightly and hook to bottom of the the tennis net. 

This ensures the bottom of the Ball Grabbers are taut. This completes the EZ Set-Up.
It takes 3-5 days for the Ball Grabbers to stretch fully. 

Each day check the center of the Ball Grabbers with the measuring cord and tighten when needed.
