4. Operating Instructions

Playing foosball on your Pegasi Foldy table is straightforward. Here are the basic operating principles:

• Starting a Game: Place a ball into the designated ball entry chute.
• Controlling Players: Use the handles on the player rods to control your team. Push and pull the rods to move players forward and backward, and rotate the handles to make players kick the ball.
• Scoring: A goal is scored when the ball enters the opponent's goal. Retrieve the ball from the goal box.
• Score Tracking: Utilize the integrated score counters located at each end of the table to keep track of the score.
• Game End: The game typically ends when one player or team reaches a predetermined number of goals (e.g., 5 or 10 goals).

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your foosball table:

• Cleaning: Wipe down the playing surface and exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
• Rod Lubrication: Periodically apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the player rods where they pass through the table bearings. This ensures smooth movement and prevents wear. Do not use oil-based lubricants as they can attract dust.
• Tighten Fasteners: Occasionally check and tighten any loose screws or bolts, especially on the legs and folding mechanism, to maintain stability.
• Storage: When not in use, fold the table and store it in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent warping or damage.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Pegasi Foldy Foosball Table, consider the following common solutions:

• Rods Sticking: If player rods are difficult to move, apply silicone lubricant as described in the Maintenance section. Ensure the rods are clean and free of debris.
• Table Wobbles: Check that the table is on a level surface. Verify that all leg locking mechanisms are fully engaged and all fasteners are tight.
• Players Not Kicking Effectively: Ensure the players are securely attached to the rods. If a player is loose, it may need to be re-tightened or replaced.
• Ball Not Rolling Smoothly: Inspect the playing surface for any debris or damage. Clean the surface if necessary.

For persistent issues not resolved by these steps, please contact customer support.
