Caption Changing ................................................................................... Drawing A-44549
The team name caption kit contains hardware for one caption only and consists of an upper caption
retainer, a lower caption retainer, a changeable caption panel, and screws.
The standard Guest and Home captions are applied directly to the face of the scoreboard. Team name
captions are on changeable panels that fit into retainers mounted above and below the Home and
Guest captions. If retainers are not already present on your scoreboard, attach the retainers included
with your caption kit as shown on Drawing A-44549.
To install a changeable panel:
1. Insert the top of the panel into the upper retainer.
2. Lift the panel all the way up into the retainer.
3. Insert the bottom of the panel into the lower retainer.
Reverse this procedure to remove the caption panel.
An optional caption changer is available for installing and removing panels from the ground. Each
panel is punched with keyholes. Screw-heads on the crossbar at the top of the caption changer fit into
the keyholes. The caption changer pole consists of three sections and an adjusting ring that may be
loosened to extend the pole. After extending the pole to the desired length, tighten the ring.
CAUTION
The aluminum caption changer can conduct electricity. Do not use it
within 20' of power lines.
Be careful when using the caption changer in high or gusting winds.
Wind may catch the panel and unhook it from the changer.
The surface area of the caption panel could act as a sail, making it
difficult to keep a grip on the pole. In high or gusting winds, hold the
pole very tightly and be careful to maintain your balance when using
the caption changer.
