Installing and Changing Captions
Standard captions are applied directly to the face of the scoreboard. optional captions are on
changeable panels that fit into guides mounted above and below the standard captions. If the guides
are not already installed, attach them to the scoreboard as shown in 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.
4. 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. A ring may be loosened to
allow adjustment of pole length. After extending the pole to the desired length, tighten the ring.
