When using the oscillator, begin by
aligning the machine with the court by
ensuring that the lower platter is “square”
with the court. The lower platter is the part
to which the rubber feet are attached. Its
front edge must be parallel to the baseline
(check both sides). This will ensure that the
machine will swing equally to the le and
right.
Note that it is not the body of the machine
that needs to be aligned with the court
but the stationary platter that sits on the
ground. The alignment fins that jut out
from under the machine provide an easy
way of checking on alignment.

To install the hopper for play, li it up from
the body of the machine, remove the pin
from the post shown in the photo, and
lay the hopper right-side-up on top of the
machine.
It is essential that the pin be inserted
in the post as shown in the photo.
Without the pin, the hopper will li
from the machine during play and
will allow balls to become jammed.

Tiny changes in angle can have big eects on where the ball lands on the other side of the
court. For maximum accuracy, you may need to fine tune the orientation of the machine
by watching where balls land.
