Thank you for purchasing a SPINSHOT Home tennis ball machine. This
manual contains important information concerning the proper use and
care of your ball machine. Please read the owner’s manual completely
before operating your machine.
What Tennis Balls to Use
Any standard sized tennis balls can be used in the Spinshot Home. Using
tennis balls designed for children - Red Dot, Orange Dot or Green Dot, will
make it easier for children to hit the balls as they are softer and nicer to hit.
Important Warnings
Supervise children at all times when they are using the machine.
Do not reach or look into the ball exit hole without turning the power off.
Do not place foreign objects into the ball machine.
Overloading balls into the ball chute will make it difcult for the returning
balls to drop into the chute.
Do not use your machine outside while it is raining.
Do not use wet tennis balls.

Section 4: Operating Your Spinshot Home
Powering Your Machine
POWER OPTIONS FOR YOUR MACHINE
Your Spinshot Home can either be plugged into mains power (power cord
supplied) or tted with 4 x D sized batteries (not supplied).
POWER SWITCH
The red power switch is located on the right hand
side of the machine. The power switch starts and
stops the ball machine. Serving of balls will start as
soon as the machine is switched on.
Speed Selection
SPEED DIAL
The Spinshot Home has four speed settings.
Use the red speed dial to change the speed. This
will also adjust the height of the balls.
Speed 1 (position pictured) delivers the ball low
and close to the machine / net.
Speeds 2 - 4 throw the balls slightly longer and higher
to allow for different skills and the space available. The
more space you have the higher the speed you can use.

SPEED SETTINGS
The diagram below shows the approximate postion of the ball at speed
settings one to four - speed one bouncing the lowest and closest to the
machine / net, and speed four bouncing the ball furtherest and highest.
Adjust the speed setting to suit the player level and the space availble.
Positioning of Machine and Net
Space Requirements
Position the net where you have a minimum space approximately 3 meters
wide and 4 meters long.
Player position [ X ] should be far enough away from walls, furniture and
objects so when the player’s arm and racquet are out stretched they do not
touch anything.
