Selecting the Type of Ball
To optimize consistency from pitch to
pitch, do not mix different ball types
in a single pitching sequence. Discard
lopsided, oversized, or damaged balls.
Machine pitch dimple balls
produce the tightest pitch-
ing pattern because of their
uniformity and symmetry.
They are ideal for practice requiring
pinpoint placement, such as learning
to hit a pitch on the low outside
corner, working on batting mechanics,
or learning to time faster pitching.
They are also very durable.
Real baseballs tend to
scatter about more in the
strike zone because of their
seams and non-uniformity.
This results in more game-realistic
pitching, because the hitter doesn’t
know in advance where the pitch will
be placed. Low quality baseballs should
not be used as they tend to become
lopsided and inaccurate with use.
Franklin Sponge Rubber
baseballs
are soft and
work well with the machine.
These rubber baseballs are
somewhat lighter than real baseballs,
but are heavy enough for fielding
practice and game play.
Tennis balls make good
practice balls, especially for
younger players. They are
inexpensive, safer because
they are lighter and softer, and produce
a tight scatter pattern. The pressure-
less type, such as those made by
Tretorn™, are highly recommended
because they are more durable and
do not lose their bounce.
Safety soft-core balls are produced by
several companies. Some brands are
accurate in our machine and some are
not. Generally, those which deform
uniformly when squeezed and which
give a true bounce when dropped onto a
flat surface are likely to perform better.

Checking Battery Status
The battery icon on the display
shows the approximate remaining
battery capacity.
For a more precise measurement,
press the ENTER key after any pitch.
The display will show the remaining
capacity of the battery in 5% incre-
ments. The machine automatically
reverts to pitching mode after 2
seconds or when a ball is loaded.
