Before using the basketball hoop, the base must be filled to ensure stability and prevent tipping. The base can be filled with either sand or water.
- Sorra: Fill with up to 99 lbs (approximately 45 kg) of dry sand. Sand provides greater stability and is less prone to freezing in colder temperatures.
- Aigua: Fill with up to 77 lbs (approximately 35 kg) of water. Water is easier to fill and empty but may freeze in cold weather, potentially damaging the base.
Ensure the fill cap is securely closed after filling.
