Scoreboard 1064 Manual: Mounting Hardware

MOUNTING HARDWARE

Four sets of mounting hardware are provided to attach the softball timer at these points. A single set of mounting hardware for the softball timer consists of a steel angle bracket, two threaded rods, two washers, and two nuts. Figure 3 shows an overhead cross section view and a side cross section view of the softball timer attached to a post at a mounting point. A steel bar is riveted inside the softball timer’s aluminum extrusion frame. The bar has two tapped holes. The threaded rods screw into these tapped holes. The washers and nuts are used to clamp the steel angle bracket against the steel post and hold the softball timer in place.

Figure 3 Standard Mounting Method

The following steps describe how to mount the softball timer on the posts:

1. Make sure the mounting points are aligned with the posts.
   1. Screw the threaded rods into the tapped holes in the softball timer.
   2. Place a steel angle bracket over the threaded rods at mounting point #1.
   3. Place a washer over each threaded rod.
   4. Screw the nuts onto the threaded rods so that the bracket is loosely held in place.
   5. Repeat steps 3 - 6 at the other mounting points.
   6. Raise the softball timer into place and tighten the nuts to clamp the softball timer in place on the posts.
