3.1 Pinspotter Mechanical Operation
3.1.1 Four Basic Pinspotter Functions
The XLi EDGE Pinspotter has four basic functions:
1. Stops balls
2. Returns balls
3. Sets pins
4. Resets pins
3.1.2 Eight Basic Pinspotter Components
1. Cushion
The cushion stops the ball and deflects it into the pit area.
2. Sweep
The sweep removes fallen pins
from the pin deck and adjacent
gutters. It also is a guard
preventing balls from striking the
table while spotting or respotting
pins (Figure 3-1).
3. Pin Conveyer
The pin conveyer (Figure 3-2) is a belt that
carries fallen pins to the pin elevator,
where they are carried up to the
distributor. The underlying bounce board
provides support for the pins and guides
the ball to the opening to the ball lift.
