SECTION I - Introduction
A. Overview
This Lane Cleaning and Conditioning Machine represents
unequaled technology in automated lane care. Clean and
consistent bowling conditions are accomplished through the
use of a "user-friendly" keypad linked to an on-board
programmable computer.
An advanced conditioner metering transfer system,
vacuum cleaning and squeegee system, and a duster system
allow the machine to maintain clean and consistent bowling
conditions in a manner never before possible.
With the expandability of the Programmable Computer,
future upgrades are easily done, assuring that your machine
will not become obsolete.
IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT THE OPERATOR
THOROUGHLY READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS OPERATING
MANUAL BEFORE USING THE MACHINE.
Should you have any questions regarding any procedures
pertaining to the proper operation of this machine, please
contact The Kegel Company, Inc. or your authorized
Distributor.

C. Care and Safety Procedures
This machine is manufactured of the highest quality
materials, but keep in mind that this is a sensitive piece
of equipment. Care should be taken to see that it is not
dropped, knocked around, or handled roughly.
Doing so may damage the programmable computer, its
components, the conditioner transfer system, the Duster
assembly, or the vacuum cleaning and squeegee system.
For care and safety reasons, follow these precautions:
Avoid spilling any liquids or chemicals inside of the
machine.
Do not operate the machine with an extension cord or
power cord other than the one provided.
Make sure that the power outlet used provides the correct
voltage and amps. It must be a clean circuit with no
other loads on it.
Do not attempt to make any wiring modifications.
Do not attempt to re-program the computer.
Do not operate the machine in an upright position.
Always empty the recovery tank before standing the
machine up and transporting it. Failure to empty the
tank will cause the dirty cleaner to either spill out
through the vacuum motor or out of the squeegee when
going over ramps. Then the next time the machine is
started, it will blow cleaner out of the vacuum exhaust.
Not following the above recommendations may cause
damage to the machine, its computer, persons operating it,
or void the warranty.
Persons assigned the responsibility of operating this
equipment should be trained in its use by an authorized
factory-trained Distributor.

D. Theory of Operation
This machine uses proven Kegel “SANCTIONTECHNOLOGY”.
This technology is the precise metering of oil to each board
by volume. This generation of SANCTIONTECHNOLOGY is
greatly improved over the first generation of THE SANCTION
MACHINE. It is much faster and gives more control over the
lengthwise distribution of the oil pattern.
The machine uses one Fluid Metering Pump. The piston
and cylinder are made of ceramic, milled to almost perfect
clearances. The pump has no valves to impair its operation.
The piston revolves as well as reciprocates during
operation.
With the pump rotating at a constant RPM the oil is
pumped at an exact flow rate to a three way valve known as
the Oil Pattern Control Valve. The valve in its OFF state
routes the oil back to the oil tank. When turned ON the
valve routes the oil to a line connected to the Oil Head.
The OIL HEAD travels back and forth across the transfer
system at a constant speed, much like the printer head on a
computer printer. The Oil Pattern Control Valve is then
turned ON and OFF according to the chosen program. This
applies a series of board to board streams of oil onto the
transfer system as the machine travels down the lane.
This stream of oil is a consistent, adjustable, and
measurable amount per board. An example of a common league
condition in the U.S. would be three 2 board to 2 board
streams, followed by two 9 to 9’s, two 10 to 10’s, and four
11 to 11’s as the machine travels down the lane.

Operators Manual
Section 1-4
The total volume amount per board of the pattern can
then be represented by an exact amount.
To do this simply multiply:
1) the value of the amount of oil per board of the oil
stream (done during calibration) by
2) the number of times the stream crossed each board.
Although it is not information that will be used daily,
it is a way of explaining a lane condition in exact terms.
These measurements can be written down and duplicated in the
future. In other words, it defines a lane condition so that
it can be recognized and explained to anyone, much like any
other specification of the bowling lane such as the length
and width.
Anyone who uses this machine and pays attention, will
begin to understand lane conditions like never before.
Simply because all adjustments to the oil pattern are exact
and repeatable. SanctionTechnology is an instrument, not
just a lane machine.

C. Conditioning (Rear) End Components
Located on the Conditioning end of the machine are the
following components:
DISTANCE WHEELS: Located on the outside rear wall of the
conditioning end and mounted on the ends of the lane
distance shaft are the distance wheels. These wheels
measure the distance the machine travels down the lane in
increments of one inch. This is done by an infrared LDS
(Lane Distance Sensor) mounted on the center pillow
block.
CONDITIONER TANK: Mounted to the rear wall on the buffing
end is the conditioner tank assembly. This tank holds
approximately 1-1/4 gallons of lane conditioner when
full. This large capacity allows the machine to operate
for a longer period before refilling. A float located
inside the tank indicates when the conditioner level
drops to approximately 1/4 gallon. A filter is also
located inside the tank.
BUFFING BRUSH LIFT MOTOR: Mounted on the left side of the
rear wall is the buffing brush lift motor. This motor
lifts the buffing brush off the lane. The buffing brush
needs to be lifted at times where conditioner is not
being applied (i.e. from the end of oil through pindeck
during all cleaning cycles). The brush parks in the down
position. The machine should be stored with the brush
down to prevent the transfer rollers from spreading the
fibers too much.
TRANSFER ROLLERS: Mounted below the moving head are the
conditioner transfer rollers. These two stainless steel
rollers are chain driven and transfer conditioner onto
the buffing brush.
TRANSFER ROLLER DRIVE MOTOR: Mounted on the right side of
the rear wall is the transfer roller drive motor. This
motor drives the transfer rollers during conditioning
runs.

Operators Manual
Section 2-5
BUFFING BRUSH: Located near the rear wall of the
conditioning end is the buffing brush assembly. The
belt-driven buffing brush removes conditioner from the
transfer rollers and places it onto the lane surface.
START/INTERLOCK/RESUME BUTTON: Located on the handle is
the Start/Interlock/Resume button. This button is used
to START the machine; STOP it any time during the
conditioning run; or to RESUME operation after it has
stopped for an error message or some other reason.
OIL HEAD: Located above the transfer rollers is the
Moving Head. This head rides along a guide bar and
applies the conditioner to the transfer rollers.
OIL HEAD DRIVE MOTOR: Located on the outside of the left
side panel is the Drive Motor for the Oil Head. This
motor, along with a cogged drive belt, moves the head
back and forth along a rectangular track above the
transfer rollers.
PRESSURE GAUGE: Located on the center wall is the oil
pressure gauge. Use the gauge to keep the oil pressure
at about 10-15 psi.
PROXIMITY SENSORS: Located at each end of the head
mounting bar is a proximity sensor. These sensors feed
information to the PC to reverse the conditioning head.
CALIBRATION OUTLET: Located on the rear wall is the
calibration outlet. During a machine calibration test,
the conditioner is routed to this outlet to allow it to
be collected and measured in a graduated cylinder.
EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON: (On 230 Volt Machines Only)
Located on the right side of the rear panel on the
outside of the machine is an emergency stop switch. This
safety button will disconnect power to the drive

is a 15 amp or 10 amp circuit breaker. The 15 amp
breaker is used in a 115 volt model and protects the
circuits for the entire machine. The 10 amp breaker is
used in a 230 volt machine and protects the circuits for
the entire machine.
10 AMP OR 8 AMP BREAKER: Next to the 15/10 amp breaker is
a 10 or 8 amp circuit breaker. This breaker protects the
vacuum motor.
DRIVE MOTOR SPEED ADJUSTING POTS: The adjusting pots are
mounted to a plate in the center of the computer
compartment. These pots regulate the speeds of the drive
motor. The furthest LEFT pot (as you face the pins)
controls the LOWEST speed (10 inches/second). As you
continue right each pot controls the next available
speed.
Facing the unit the proper setting for the pots are
in this order:
9-10 IPS
13-14 IPS
17-18 IPS
21-22 IPS
25-26 IPS

E. Cleaning (Front) End Components
The following components are located under the lid on
the cleaning end of the machine:
PUMP MOTOR: Mounted on the far left hand side of the
cleaning end is the pump motor. This motor pumps the
cleaning liquid from the supply tank through the spray
jets and onto the lane surface.
VACUUM MOTOR: Located on the right side is the vacuum
motor. This motor is used with the squeegee assembly and
recovery tank to vacuum the cleaner off the lane. This
motor needs special attention in high dirt areas,
especially if the gutters and caps are not dusted
regularly.
SUPPLY TANK: The tank nearest the left side is the
cleaner supply tank. This tank will hold enough cleaner
to completely clean in excess of 20 lanes. A screen
filter is located inside the tank.
RECOVERY TANK: The tank nearest the right side is the
recovery tank. This tank will hold over 20 lanes of used
liquid without needing to be emptied.
DMR DUSTER/CLEANING CLOTH ASSEMBLY: Mounted inside and
across the entire front end is the DMR Duster Cleaning
Cloth Assembly. Two motors, one located on each side,
move the cloth from one core to the next. The gear motor
on the left side is called the UNWIND MOTOR. When
operated it will let out new cloth from the supply roll.
The gear motor on the right side is the WIND-UP MOTOR.
When operated it will wind up the used, dirty cloth on
the white PVC take up roller.
For best results, use Kegel Kloth (Part #153-0047K) or you
can use DBA #8460 or Lane DynamX #9460 Lane Cleaning
Cloth (or other equivalent). The machine will use
approximately 1-1/2" of cloth per lane.

SPRAY JET ASSEMBLIES: Mounted to the front outer wall are
the 4 spray jet assemblies. These assemblies can be
angled up or down, and left or right, to adjust spray
coverage to the entire lane. Mounted with the spray tip
is a combination check valve/filter.
DUSTER UP SWITCH: Located on each side wall above the
duster cushion roller pivot arms is a microswitch. These
switches, when actuated, tell the PC that the cushion
roller is in the UP position.
FAILSAFE SWITCH: These switches are found on each side
wall, below the Duster Up switches. When the cushion
roller drops off the end of the lane, the cushion roller
pivot arms actuate the failsafe switches. Once actuated,
the machine will travel two inches before it reverses.
The failsafe will reverse the machine only when the End
Cleaning Distance counter is set too high. The failsafe
switches are a backup system only!

Operators Manual
Section 2-11
F. Underside Components
Located on the underside of the machine are the
following components:
DRIVE SHAFT: Located toward the center of the underside
is the lane drive shaft. This shaft is driven by the
drive motor. The squeegee assembly is also mounted to,
and pivots on, this drive shaft.
TACH SENSOR: Mounted to the left side plate is the TACH
sensor. A ten-tooth timing sprocket is rotated as the
drive shaft turns. As the teeth of the sprocket pass
through this sensor pulses are sent to the PC. The PC
counts these pulses and calculates the IPS (INCHES PER
SECOND) travel speed of the machine. This is used to set
the 7 different speeds of the machine. It is also used
in the program to sense if the drive wheels are slipping.
The PC compares the rate of pulses coming from the tach
sensor to the rate of pulses coming from the LANE
DISTANCE SENSOR.
DRIVE WHEELS: Mounted on the lane drive shaft are the two
drive wheels. These wheels are powered by the drive
motor and drive the machine on the lane.
SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY: Mounted to the drive shaft is the
squeegee assembly. This assembly vacuums the cleaner and
oil off of the lane during lane cleaning.
EMI FILTER: (On 230 Volt Machines Only) The electrical
circuits of the machine are filtered to reduce line
conducted and radiated emissions. This filter must be
connected properly to ensure compliance with
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directives (CE Mark).

Operators Manual
Section 2-12
LANE-TO-LANE CASTERS: Located on the exterior left and
right sides of the frame are the lane to lane casters.
These casters support the machine as it is moved on the
approach from one lane to the next.
GUIDE ROLLERS: Mounted inside of the side plates are five
spring-loaded guide rollers. These guide rollers ride
along the edges of the lane to keep the machine straight
and centered on the lane. The bolt for the center guide
roller (on the left side) is longer than the other four.
OIL PUMP & MOTOR: Located on the left side underneath the
machine is the Conditioner Pump and Motor. Conditioner
is pumped from the tank through the PULSE DAMPENER TUBE
to the OIL PRESSURE GAUGE, continuing on through the
PRESSURE REGULATOR TUBING then to the oil routing valves.
OIL PRESSURE REGULATOR BOX: Located near the bottom of
the floor plate is the pressure regulator box (on
machines with serial number 2371 and after). This box
contains tubing to control the amount of pressure in the
oil output line. Various lengths and sizes of tubing are
available depending on the viscosity of the conditioner
being used in the machine. Refer to the chart in the
Appendix to select the appropriate regulator tubing.
OIL PRESSURE NEEDLE VALVE: On machines with serial number
2370 and before, there is a needle valve located between
the pressure gauge and the oil control valves. This
valve is used to keep the oil pressure at approximately
10 psi. This needle valve has been replaced with the oil
pressure regulator box on current production models.
WARNING: If the machine will be using very light oil it
should be converted to the pressure regulator box (Order
Part Number 154-8259). The new design eliminates the
chance of the needle valve becoming clogged when the
orifice is very small to create the proper amount of
pressure.

Operators Manual
Section 2-13
OIL ROUTE CONTROL VALVES: Two valves are used to meter
and route the conditioner flow.
The OIL PATTERN CONTROL VALVE is controlled by 24V DC.
In its normal or OFF state this valve routes the oil
from the pump back to the oil supply tank via the oil
return line. When turned ON, it routes the oil from
the pump to the OIL VOLUME TEST VALVE (115V AC).
The OIL VOLUME TEST VALVE in its normal or OFF state
the allows the oil to flow to the Oil Head Pencil and
on to the main transfer roller. When turned ON, it
routes the oil to the OIL CALIBRATION OUTLET located on
the left rear wall of the machine.
