2. Using gauge 088-001-217, insert the thicker end of the gauge between the off-spot switch
lever and the clevis at the point where the two meet. Adjust the screw counterclockwise to
the point of switch actuation.
3. Remove the gauge. When the thinner end of the gauge is inserted (but not the taper at the
end), the switch should not actuate.
4. Hold the screw in position and tighten the jam nut.
5. To check above adjustment:
a. Cycle the machine through the 1st ball cycle with a pin placed out of range.
b. The sweep should drop to the 66° (1
st
guard) position.
c. The table should contact the pin and return to the zero (home) position.
d. The 2nd ball light should turn on.
Some of the table adjustments require that the table be operated under
power. When this is the case, the respot cells should be actuated
manually to open the fingers and prevent damage.
6. Remove any fallen pins, open the respot cell fingers, and press the sweep reverse button to
bring the sweep to the home position and continue play.
4.2.2.11 Table and Respot Cell Operation
Much of the table’s operation is controlled by an encoder, pivot arms, control rods, a solenoid,
latches, and levers. The table operating logic is as follows:
When the ball detector initiates a machine cycle, the state (energized or deenergized) of the
solenoid determines whether the action results in setting a new set of pins, or in the respotting of
the existing pin arrangement.
If the spotting solenoid is energized, the shuttle cam causes a set of pins to be deposited in the
cups. The Spot Lever is captured at its top end causing the Spot Rod to pivot the cups as the Table
descends. At the same time, a lever actuates to cause the eccentric latch to disengage, allowing
the Table to descend fully to set the pins.
When a 2
nd
ball cycle is initiated, the solenoid remains deenergized, and the eccentric remains
latched causing the Table to only partially descend. At the same time, the Spot Lever’s pivot point
changes to the center of the lever because it is not restrained at the top. This shortens its
movement preventing the cups from pivoting. This also allows the Respot Rod to cause the
Respot
