The two electric motors have to be connected to the electronic controller, with their
cables and connectors. The lower und upper motor connectors are different; therefore
it's impossible to connect them incorrectly.
Power supply
Winshot can be powered from a regular household 220Volt ( or 115 Volt ) outlet.
It is also available a battery-power kit.

2 - Indicates the degree of curvature of the trajectory of the ball; with zero spin the ball tra-
jectory has no curvature and the ball exhibits a floating effect.
3 - The level of charge of the battery varies from 1 to 3. When the indicator is at 1 or half a
point, please charge the batteries with the charger provided.
4 - The two buttons indicated by the arrow adjust the spin from zero to a maximum of 50%.
A good spin value for a serve ranges between 20% and 25%..
5 - The red LED indicates that the wheels are still adjusting to reach the set speed, while the
green LED indicates the set speed has been reached, and the machine is ready to shoot
with the desired parameters. With WinShot 1500, the time interval between shots, or to
switch between different memory settings, is very rapid in the order of one second.
6 - These 5 buttons select 5 memories with settings that can be stored and recalled for shots
at varying speeds.
7 - These two buttons are used to adjust the speed of the ball, which varies from 0% to
100%..
8 - Switch on and off the machine.
9 - Indicator for memory selected.
10 - Indicator of the speed of the ball as measured from 0 to 100%.

During this adjustment, the display will
show the message WAIT E.. and the red
LED will illuminate until the wheels have
reached the set speed.
Adjusting electronic control with Fast Control System
The motor control lets you vary the speed of the 2 motors and it is essential to define tra-
jectories, speed and effects for serves, attacks and settings.

Turn on the control unit with the main
switch on the left-hand side. When the
machine is turned on, all the parame-
ters are set at zero (speed, spin).
To start spinning the shooting wheels,
select a previously set memory or increa-
se the speed and / or the spin.
When the wheels reach the desired
speed that was set before, the red LED
turns off, and the green LED illuminates
to indicate that the machine is ready to
roll, i.e. shoot a ball with the correct
parameters. The display indicates
READY.
winshot 1500 rev. 13.ENG.stamp.pdf.qxd 29-08-2013 9.32 Pagina 12

To store this shot, simply press one of the
5 memory keys for two seconds and the
display will indicate STORED MEMORY.
To adjust the setting of a memory, simply
change speed or spin and store the
memory again with the new parameters.
Between shots, waiting time is very
short (1 second), during which the red
light illuminates, immediately followed
by the green light signalling that the
machine is ready for a new shot at the
set speed.
When it is desired to arrest the wheels in
a short time, for instance to clean a
wheel from mud or handle the machine,
please follow this procedure. Instead of
simply powering off the machine with
the switch, which would let the wheels
turn for a long time, simultaneously push
both speed adjustment buttons for a
couple of seconds. This will quickly
decrease both wheels to a halt. Then
power off the machine with the main
switch.

Shooting Wheels replacement
To replace the shooting wheels, follow the instrutcions
below
1) Unscrew the screws around the protection cover.
2) Unscrew the bolts securing
the wheels Replace the wheel with a
now one
4) Fasten wheel with the bolt,
tightening it well
5) Place the protection cover
and secure it well with its own
screws
The wheels are made of a special, natural, soft rubber-based material which
safeguards ball wear. From year to year inspect if the wheels guarantee the
normal functionality of the shot or if it is necessary to replace them.

Following are the main steps to operate Winshot
Wheels locking
Move Winshot 1500 to the position in which it
will be utilized; before climbing on the opera-
tor platform and its ladder, lock all four trans-
portation wheels as shown in the picture.
How to operate Winshot 1500
Head Lifting-Lowering
Frontal handle to regulate the
height of the launch head. From
230 cm to 340 cm.
Frontal handle to regulate the height of the launch head. From
230 cm to 340 cm. Winshot 1500 can launch the ball from very different heights: from
230 cm. up to about 340 cm. This characteristic allow to reproduce a wide range of ser-
ves and spikes, and to repeat the serve characteristic of the adversary. To lift
or lower the head of the machine, use the frontal handle as shown in the picture
Adjustment of the stiffness of the vertical inclination
Should the operator
want a stiffer or
looser movement
for vertical inclina-
tion, it is possible
to adjust it with a
pin spanner (see
picture).

Pag. 14
Vertical inclination
The oscillation of the head on the vertical axis is very wide, thanks to the spe-
cial fixing system of the wheels on the launching platform, and to the joint
which permits a quick and ductile movement of the wheels on the vertical
axis. This movement permits to do very close spikes on 3 meters or long spikes
on 9 meters and sets of high ball or tight ball with extreme facility.
Head Swivelling
Swivelling is the capacity of the head to rotate on the horizontal axis. This cha-
racteristic permits to modify the trajectories of the shots from left to right and
vice versa.
For these adjustments utilize the handles on the side of the head..

Winshot 1500 can be used for :
- Float and spin serves with or without jump
- Spikes with jump from front row or back row and with feet to train the defen
se.
- Setting from any court position and for all trajectory type
Serve
FLOAT SERVE
the main difference from the previously described float serve, is that the ball is served
from a higher point. Therefore the head has to be positioned from a height 2.5 m (8 ft
2”), up to 3 m (9 ft 10”).
Jumping float serve
the main difference from the previously described float serve, is that the ball is served
from a higher
point.
Therefore the
head has to
be positioned
from a height
2.5 m (8 ft
2”), up to 3 m
(9 ft 10”).
Practical use of Winshot 1500 SERVES
winshot 1500 rev. 13.ENG.stamp.pdf.qxd 29-08-2013 9.40 Pagina 17

The serve with rotation (spin), while jumping or with feet on the
ground
The motor control lets you vary the speed of the 2 motors and it is essential to define tra-
jectories, speed and effects for serves, attacks and settings.
For example, to simulate the jump serve of a good server set the speed of the wheels
to 70-80% with Spin set at about 20%.
ATTENTION!! The speed and the magnitude of the spin effect are extremely dependent
on the inflation pressure of the ball; therefore make sure that the pressure is according
to the rules of the game in the range 0,294 - 0,319 Bar.

Spike
First-line attack
An attack is simulated with Winshot 1500 with the same settings of the spin serve, but
inclining downwards the head of the machine. Position the machine next to the net,
and set the head at the correct height , above 2,70 m for wamen and above 3,30 m
for man.
Second-line attack
A second-line attack can be done with the same settings described for the first-line
attack, positioning Winshot 1500 on the 3 m line, and incresing the height of the head
to prevent hitting the net.

Individual defensive exercises can be done, on the ground or outside the ground,
exploiting corners or areas of the gym, to train players with specific roles such as the
free role and so on.Winshot 1500 allows to do very precise and very technical spikes
to train the individual technique of the defense and all its peculiarities. In fact, the big
accuracy and repeatability of Winshot 1500 allows an accurate work and countless
repetitions on the primary defense, especially with the young athletes that should
enhance their technique.
Sets
Winshot 1500 can perform all typical sets of volleyball from all areas of the field. Tilting
the head in the appropriate way, one can do different sets of high ball, medium ball,
super ball, pipe, 1st and 2nd time back and forth, as well as sets in the 2nd line from
zone 1.
The ability to perform many precise and steady sets in the trajectory, allows the ath-
letes to learn easily and quickly the attack technique and improves the coordination
which is typical of the run-up attack and of the spike itself. It is also possible, having
always the same sets, to work with a lot of efficacy in the technique of the attack shot
without wasting any empy jump for inaccurate sets.
