PICKLEBALL TUTOR FAQ
THE BASICS
Yes, very simple. Easier than a toaster oven!
Never walk in front of the Pickleball Tutor or insert your hand into the machine when it is operating. Start the Pickleball Tutor at a relatively slow ball speed and adjust from there. Also, since you are using many balls, be careful to clear balls that may get underfoot and present a hazard. Hitting that extra shot is not worth a sprained ankle!

BALLS & THE THROWING WHEELS
Use a 100-grit sandpaper sponge, which is easier to hold and more effective than regular sandpaper. With the machine OFF, reach in the ejection opening and hold one wheel still. Use the sponge to sand in both directions, doing a section at a time (between two of the grooves). Turn the wheel and do the next section. Go around the wheel two or three times and then repeat with the other wheel. This will help remove any build-up of residue from brand new balls. Even if you use older balls, you can still get some wheel discoloration which is good to clean off. In fact, even when using older balls, we suggest cleaning the throwing wheels on a routine basis to optimize performance. If the wheels are not cleaned, it can affect their ability to grab the ball, which results in less feeding consistency and ball speed.
