First Ball - Strike Cycle
A strike cycle results when a bowler is successful in knocking down all the pins with the first ball. The
pinsetter will sweep any deadwood into the pit and set ten new pins onto the pin deck. The following is
a complete description of this cycle. Refer to Figure 4-6.

1. A ball detect occurs.
2. In response to the ball detect signal the sweep release solenoid energizes to lower the sweep into
the guard position actuating switch “G”. The ball door solenoid energizes, locking the ball door
for three seconds.
3. The table motor runs counterclockwise. The cam on the table shaft will leave switch “A”
moving toward switch “B”.
