4.3 PERFORMING OCCASIONAL MAINTENANCE
At some point it will be necessary to adjust or replace parts as they wear out from normal
use. This section contains information about some of the repairs that might need to be
performed to the Phoenix LT4.
If a problem that is not described here or in Section 5 - Troubleshooting is encountered,
contact Brunswick Customer Response Center at 1-800-YES-BOWL (1-800-937-2695).

4.3.1 Adjusting the Buffer Brush Pressure
For a consistent application of oil across the lane, the buffer brush pressure must be the
same across the width of the buffer brush. The best setting for the buffer brush pressure is
between B and C on the Buffer Pressure Adjusting Tool.
Although increasing the buffer brush pressure can
condition low spots on the lane where insufficient oil was
being applied, the pressure increase will shorten the life
of the buffer brush and put undue strain on the buffer motor. Also, an overall slight
reduction in the amount of oil applied to the lane could occur. Weigh the benefits
against the detriments before setting the pressure higher than recommended.
NOTES
Any adjustments made to one side of the brush will affect the other side. Adjust both
sides to the same reading on the Pressure Adjustment Tool. (Too much pressure on
one side can cause the machine to drive at an angle on the lane.)
If adjusting the buffer brush still does not yield the desired oiling pattern, refer to
Section 6 - Determining the Oiling Pattern.
To change the buffer brush position, complete the steps below with the machine in the
operating position on the lane.
Always ensure the Phoenix LT4 Lane Machine is
disconnected from any power source before starting any
maintenance, adjustment, replacement, or repair task.
