Ball Maintenance
Rubber Balls
The black rubber balls are coated with
Teflon® to increase the life of the ball.
While very durable, the coating will
eventually wear off and the rubber
material will then begin to wear
rapidly. As the balls wear down they
will not provide a good seal in the firing
tube and miss-fires will occur. This can
be corrected somewhat by increased air
pressure to the fire cylinder, but at some
point it will be necessary to replace the
balls due to wear.
WARNING: The ball chute air cylin-
der can pinch, cut or sever fingers
during ball removal. Insure air pres-
sure is OFF and system pressure is
released before attempting to remove
balls from the lift system.
Turn off the air supply shut off valve
located in the front cabinet. Release
the air system pressure by firing the
gun once. Pull toggle to release the
balls. Use a short stick to push the
balls out into the chute where they can
be removed. See figure 10
