CARE, CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
LUBRICATION
(once per season, or as required):
1. Elevation Control Handle
Apply fresh grease to threads.
2. Horizontal Swivel Lock
a. Completely remove the horizontal swivel lock. Clean all old grease, dirt, etc. from
the threads.
b. Wipe the threads with a very small amount of fresh grease.
c. Reinstall.
THROWING WHEEL MOTORS
Motors are sealed and require no lubrication.
Check bolts for tightness once a season. Tighten bolts securely, but do not over-tighten.
See page 11.
CLEANING THE THROWING WHEELS
The throwing wheels must be kept clean to maintain accuracy. Clean the wheels
periodically to control the build-up of grass and dirt.
1. Turn the power switch “OFF” and allow the wheels to come to a complete stop.
Unplug Drop Attack from electric power.
2. Dampen a rag with soap and water. Turn the throwing wheel by hand and scrub
the wheel until the build-up is removed. For very heavy build-up, a synthetic scouring
pad, such as a Scotch-Brite
®
scouring pad, may be used sparingly.
EXAMINE THE MACHINE
Examine Drop Attack for condition and completeness before every use:
1. Throwing wheels must be tight on the motor shafts. Check that the four bolts
holding the motor to the throwing head assembly are tight.
2. Wheel guard and ball cradle must be securely fastened.
CAUTION
PERSONAL INJURY
HAZARD
Never attempt to clean
the throwing wheels while they
are turning. Rags or implements
caught in spinning wheels can
cause serious injury.
Unplug the machine before
cleaning the wheels or
performing any service.
