Junior Hack Attack Safety Instructions
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (cont’d)
BALL SELECTION
Never mix leather balls with synthetic pitching machine balls.
Be careful not to mix new with old balls or balls from different manufacturers.
Balls must be consistent in type and amount of wear to produce repeatability.
Never use wet balls!
BATTING PRACTICE
The horizontal swivel lock must be securely tightened before the batter approaches
the plate.
ALWAYS test and adjust the Junior Hack Attack before a batter steps up to the plate:
1. Adjust so that Junior Hack Attack throws a ball across the plate.
2. Throw test pitches until required velocity and break are reached.
3. Throw several pitches to verify pitch location repeatability.
DO NOT make any speed or pitch location changes while the batter is at the plate.
Batter and pitching machine operator must wear batting helmets.
Only one person at a time should operate the machine.
Always present the ball to the batter before feeding the ball into the machine.

Screen is not included with Junior Hack Attack.
