ADJUSTING THE POWER LEVEL
IMPORTANT: Changes to the power
level settings can only occur when
the compressor is not running.
Pressing any button when the
compressor is running, activates
an emergency shut down.
To adjust the pitch height in the strike
zone, slightly increase or decrease
the power level. If the power level is
changed significantly, you will need
to adjust the pitch angle (elevation).
Refer to “Determining the Pitch
Angle” on page 10.
NOTE
: First-time users should start
at a low power level to get used to the
pitching machine. Pitch a few balls,
and then gradually increase the power
level as needed.
Emergency Shutdown
In an emergency, you can stop a pitch
by pushing any button on the keypad
while a ball is in the barrel. Every time
you use the pitching machine, set aside
time to practice aborting pitches so
that you will be comfortable doing
it if an emergency arises.

PITCH MODE
Setting the Power Level
The power level directly affects the
speed of the pitch. The higher the power
level setting, the faster the pitch.
The power level setting appears on
the display when the machine is ready
to pitch. The default power setting is
40%, which will throw real baseballs
at approximately 35 mph.
Use the
▲▼
buttons to adjust the
power level setting from 1% to 80%.
