Product Description
The Electric Hoist for Basketball Goals 1194 is used by all major basketball goal equipment manufacturers. This includes Gared Sports, Performance Sports Systems, Draper, Porter, and Spalding. The mounting flange is designed to mount to a wall or 3.5 inch pipe. The motor is 3/4 horse power, 120 volt, with grooved drum, and limit switches.
Load Rating
This electric hoist for basketball goals is designed to lift up to 1250 pounds.
Wire Rope Type
1/4” diameter 7×19 galvanized wire rope, commonly referred to as aircraft cable. This cable has a break strength of 7,000 pounds. This cable IS NOT supplied with the motor.
Rope Drum
The drum is 4.5 inches with grooves for orderly winding of the wire rope. The wire rope goes through the drum for secure anchoring. The drum holds 30’ of wire rope on the first layer and an additional 25’ on the second layer. The maximum drum capacity is 55’.
Pressure Roller
The wire rope is held tightly against the drum with a spring loaded pressure roller. This ensure that the cable winds neatly into the grooves of the drum without jumping over grooves. The pressure roller maintains pressure even if the cable slacks between the hoist and the backboard.
Limit Switches
The limit switches control when the motor stops at the upper and lower limits of backboard travel. The switches on this motor are gear driven, providing the greatest level of accuracy.
Electrical
110/115120 VAC, 1 phase, 60 hertz. UL Listed.
Motor
The motor is 3/4 horse power, 9.5 amps. The motor comes with a 6 power cord with a 4 prong twist lock plug rated for 20 amps.
Gearbox
The gears are hardened metal to outlast and out perform other gear materials. The gears are in a sealed aluminum housing. The 200:1 worm gear provides positive locking to hold under load.
Frame Construction
The frame is designed to mount to a 3.5” diameter pipe or a flat surface such as a wall. The hardware for pipe mounting is included. The hardware for flat surface mounting IS NOT included as this hardware will vary depending upon the construction of the surface. The frame is powder coated black for corrosion resistance.
Installation
Installing the hoist is fairly straight forward. Assuming that you’re replacing a defective hoist you’ll simply detach the old unit and attach the new unit in the same location. It seems like we have installed hundreds of these over the many years that we have been installing and servicing equipment. Our expert advice is that you always install a new wire rope and any associated hardware when installing a new hoist. The wire rope should wrap around the drum 4 or 5 times before running towards the backboard. These 4 to 5 drum wraps should never unwrap. Once the motor is mounted and the new wire rope is installed, the last step is to set the limit switches. It is helpful to have 2 people for this process, one person to operate the key switch and another to fine tune the limit switches. The lower limit switch should be set to allow the wire rope to have a tiny amount of slack when the goal is in the playing position. The backboard should not have tension on the wire rope when in the playing position.

Shipping, Delivery & Damage Claims
Please inspect your shipment carefully at the time of delivery. Your shipment is insured, and damage or loss is rare. However, it can happen. In order to file an insurance claim, any damage or missing items must be documented at the time of delivery.
Before the shipment is unloaded, take clear photos from several angles. Then, after unloading, take additional photos in good lighting. These photos provide important documentation if a damage or loss claim becomes necessary.
Damage Claims
If the shipment, packaging, pallet, or any item appears damaged, dented, crushed, torn, or otherwise questionable, take plenty of photos before the shipment is unloaded from the truck. After unloading, take additional overall and close-up photos in better lighting.
Ask the driver to document all visible damage on the delivery paperwork, Bill of Lading (BOL), or electronic delivery app. The damage must be documented before you sign for and accept the delivery.
Your signature indicates that you accepted the shipment in its delivered condition. Therefore, do not sign the delivery paperwork or electronic delivery confirmation until you have inspected the shipment and documented any visible damage.
If there are no photos taken at the time of delivery and the damage is not documented on the delivery paperwork or app before you sign, an insurance damage claim cannot be filed. In that case, the customer will be responsible for purchasing any replacement items that are needed.
However, when you have delivery photos and the damage has been properly documented before accepting the shipment, a claim can be filed and the damaged item can be replaced at no cost to the customer.
Lost or Missing Item Claims
A shipment may appear to be in perfect condition while an item is still missing. Therefore, take photos of every shipment at the time of delivery, even when everything appears to be fine.
Take photos from several angles before the shipment is unloaded. After unloading, take additional photos in good lighting. These images help establish exactly what was present when the shipment arrived.
The shipper will have photographed the shipment before it was loaded for transportation. If an item is missing, those photographs can be compared with your delivery photos to document the loss and support an insurance claim.
If there are no photos taken at the time of delivery, an insurance claim cannot be filed for a lost or missing item. In that case, the customer will be responsible for purchasing any replacement items that are needed.
However, when your delivery photos show that an item was missing when the shipment arrived, the photographs can be compared with the shipper’s documentation to support the claim. Once the loss is properly documented, the missing item can be replaced at no cost to the customer.
Before You Sign for Your Shipment
- Inspect the shipment for visible damage or missing items.
- Photograph the shipment from several angles before unloading.
- Photograph it again after unloading in good lighting.
- Document any damage or loss on the delivery paperwork, BOL, or delivery app.
- Do not sign until any visible damage or loss has been documented.
- Keep your photos in case an insurance claim needs to be filed.
Taking a few photos at the time of delivery can make all the difference. Proper documentation protects you and provides the information required to file an insurance claim if your shipment arrives damaged or incomplete.
