Positioning your JUGS TOSS Machine
Position your JUGS TOSS Machine as shown in the diagram
below. Move your JUGS TOSS Machine farther away or closer
to the batter, to set the desired height. NEVER HIT BALLS
DIRECTLY TOWARDS YOUR JUGS TOSS MACHINE.
!! IMPORTANT WARNINGS !!

Dono t in se rt hanDs or foreign objects i nto the Machine.
JUGS TOSS Tips
Position your JUGS TOSS
so that it tosses the ball
over the front edge of the
plate. This teaches the
hitter to aggressively go
after the ball and make
contact out in front of the
plate in the “power zone.”
Hit in the direction of the arrow.
Operating Your JUGS TOSS Machine
Load balls, starting from the bottom (Ejection Point) of the ramp.
Do not load balls by letting them roll down the ramp, as this may
cause the rst few balls to be positioned incorrectly and not toss
properly.
JUGS TOSS is designed to work with standard-size baseballs,
softballs up to 12 inches in diameter, JUGS Sting-Free®balls and
Reduced Injury Factor (RIF) baseballs. The toss height will be high
with lighter balls. It is normal for the toss height to vary somewhat,
even with baseballs, due to the effect of the seams.
Push the Power Switch to the “ON” position. JUGS TOSS will
toss a ball approximately every ve seconds. The JUGS TOSS
Machine should be turned OFF when there are no more balls
to be thrown. For the longest spring life, it is best to turn off the
JUGS TOSS Machine when the “ipper” has just completed its
throwing motion and before the spring begins to stretch again.
Battery Charging
To charge the internal battery, plug the battery charger into the
jack on top of your JUGS TOSS Machine and then into a live AC
outlet. The most common cause of a battery not charging is a dead
AC outlet.
Battery Life
A fully charged battery will normally provide over six hours of
practice time. It requires approximately 12 hours to fully recharge
the battery. Undercharging the battery will result in shortened
playing time and may decrease the life of the battery. To
extend the life of the battery, charge it for 24 continuous hours once
each month. If the battery is not holding a full charge, or has been
discharged for some time, charge it for ve straight days. However,
never charge the battery for more than ve straight days.
CHARGE BATTERY IMMEDIATELY
AFTER EACH USE.
