HAND GUARD KIT
If u
pgrading your existing Options Ball Return with the 252
-
002
-
147 Hand Guard Kit,
Install
it
as shown and described
below. The guard reduces the li
kelihood of someone
placing his or her hand
inside the ball return in the area where the ball exits the lift or
where there are moving parts. The installation utilizes much of the lift’s existing
hardware.

Turn OFF power and remove the Hood
before installing the hand guard.

Separate the urethane wear strip from its backing
(see A above for location)
and insert
the upper mounting screws (item 5) so that the screw heads are covered by the urethane
strip.

Install the guard’s upper mounting
flang
e on top of the lift’s upper cross brace. (see B
above.)

Secure the guard’s side flanges to the inside of the lift’s side plates, and install the edge
trim to protect the bowling balls as they leave the lift.

The standard foundation for the Ball Lift consists of two 2 x 6 x 18
-
inch boards over a
concrete subfloor. While shims are provided to level and raise the Ball Lift to the
required height, you may need to plane the boards and/or us
e additional materials to
achieve the 14
-
7/16
-
inch (367 mm) required distance from the
bottom
surface of the
Ball Lift base plate to the
top
surface of the approach.
Depending on the length of your approach, you may or may not have the ball rack
overhang
ing the end of the approach. To determine the overhang at your center,
perform the computation below using the numbers from your center.
IMPORTANT!
The position of the ball lift on the approach in the following calculation is based on a
standard
Qubic
a
AMF underlane track installation that results in the end of the track being
125
-
7/16 inches from the lane side of the foul line. If possible, check this distance, and if
different, offset the installation (including the cutout) as needed. Minor differe
nces (no
more than ± 1 inch) do
NOT
require any offset. If an installation other than the standard
installation is desired, the underlane track can be lengthened or shortened as needed.

The dimensions specified herein are for a typical installation and assume
an approach
length of 16 ft. (4
87
.
7
cm)
.
This typical installatio
n will result in the ball rack
overhanging the end of the approach by 30.
15
inches (7
6
.
6
cm)
,
with a
15 ball rack
,
and
approximately
15.65
inches
(39.8 cm)
with a
11 ball rack
. The amount of overhang you
will obtain will be determin
ed by the length of the approach in your bowling center. If
the approach is longer than that specified above, the overhang will be less by the same
amount. If the approach is shorter, the overhang will be more.
The minimum approach length that will acc
ommodate a standard installation is 16
feet (487.7 cm).
This is because of the placement of the ball rack’s support pedestal,
which must be installed on the approach. If the approach is less than 16 feet in length,
or if more space is needed between the
end of the ball rack and other installed
equipment, then you will have to offset the installation closer to the foul line by the
desired amount.
If the location of the Ball Lift is shifted, it may be necessary to cut
and splice the underlane ball return t
rack to accomplish the installation.

Place the first 2 x 6 board on the subfloor so that
it is positioned perpendicular to the
underlane track under the rail adapter plate. This is just an approximate location
.

front edge 23.5 inches (59.7 cm) from the first board’s front edge (see Figure

The Ball Lift assembly is shipped configured for 230
-
volt operation and,
if necessary,
must be reconfigured for 115
-
volt operation. To configure the Ball Lift
motor
for 115
-
volt
operation, remove the motor’s electrical cover plate and reconnect the wiring for low
voltage operation as shown in the wiring diagram on the motor’s
frame. Reinstall the
cover plate. Instructions for configuring the controller
and the ball rack blower motor
for
115 volts are provided later.
6.
Lower the Ball Lift mechanism into the opening and onto the two 2 x 6’s. Position
the Ball Lift in line with
the underlane track so that the holes in the adapter plate on
the end of the underlane track align with the four studs on the Ball Lift base plate.
7.
Center the 2 x 6 boards under the bolt holes in the Ball Lift base plate and check the
Ball Lift for level
side to side and front to back. Use shims from the shim pack (610
-
494
-
444), as necessary.
8.
Measure the distance from the underside of the Ball Lift base plate to the top surface
of the approach. This distance should be 14
-
7/16 inches (36.7 cm). If necess
ary,
add or remove shims, plane the 2 x 6 boards, etc. Maintain the unit level side to
side and front to back.

Track alignmen
t is critical for the smooth transition of the ball to the Lift. Adjust the

l stop should the ball fail to be handled properly by
the Ball Lift.
The ball stop should be placed in alignment with the front trap door as
shown in figure
2
.
1.
Assemble the ball stop as shown in Figure
6
. Place the tube through the hole in the
plastic sto
p and then position the stop between the ears of the metal bracket.
Secure the plastic stop using the 5/16
-
18 x 2¼
-
inch bolt (809
-
857
-
365) and lock nut
(844
-
057
-
002). The longest side of the plastic stop must be placed against the
metal bracket and shoul
d hang down as shown in Figure
6
.
2.
Mount the Ball Stop to the first leveling strip forward of the Ball Lift as follows:
a)
Center the plastic stop over the ball track with the centerline of the 2¼
-
inch bolt
exactly 10 inches (25.4 cm) above the track’s mountin
g plate.
b)
Mark the leveling strip through the holes in the ball stop bracket, and drill two 7/32
-
inch pilot holes for mounting the Ball Stop at the marks on the leveling strip.
c)
Mount the Ball Stop to the leveling strip using 5/16 x 1½
-
inch lag screws (810
-
556
-
240) and flat washers (948
-
761
-
112).

with the centerline you drew on the approach
.
3.
Ensure the base is parallel to the Ball Lift and secure th

5.
The hood is secured to the base by tabs on the base that snap into slots on the
hood. The hood is attached to the access panel which, in turn, is held in place by a
