### Total Installation Period
Usually **5 to 9 days** in total (including concrete curing).
### Step-by-Step Time Breakdown
1. **Site preparation & digging the foundation hole**
~ 30–60 minutes
2. **Setting the embedded part & pouring concrete**
~ 1–2 hours
3. **Concrete curing (must-wait period)**
**3–7 days**
This is the most important stage — cannot assemble or use during this time.
4. **Assembling pole, backboard and rim**
~ 1–2 hours
### Total Working Time (actual labor)
Only about **2.5 to 5 hours** of actual work.
### Factors Affecting Installation Time
- Ground hardness (soft soil is faster, concrete ground takes longer)
- Number of workers (2 people finish much faster)
- Weather conditions (rain or low temperature may extend curing time)
