5. Operating Instructions

Swingball is a game for one or two players. The objective is to hit the ball so that it wraps around the pole in your direction, making it difficult for your opponent to return.

• Starting the Game: Stand on opposite sides of the pole. One player serves by hitting the ball with their racket, causing it to swing around the pole.
• Gameplay: Players take turns hitting the ball, trying to make it wrap around the pole in their favor. The ball will move up or down the spiral on the pole depending on the force and angle of the hit.
• Winning: The game is won when one player successfully wraps the ball completely around the pole to the top or bottom, reaching the end of the spiral before their opponent can hit it back.
• Fair Play: Always play fairly and respect your opponent. Avoid hitting the pole directly or intentionally hitting the ball out of bounds.

6. Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life of your Swingball set:

• Cleaning: Wipe down the pole, base, and rackets with a damp cloth after use to remove dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• Base Water/Sand: If storing for an extended period, it is recommended to empty the water from the base to prevent algae growth or freezing damage. Sand can be left in.
• Cord Inspection: Regularly check the cord connecting the ball to the pole for fraying or wear. Replace if necessary.
• Storage: When not in use, disassemble the pole and store all components inside the base. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

7. Troubleshooting

Here are some common issues and their solutions:

• Issue: Base is unstable.
  Solution: Ensure the base is completely filled with water or sand. Check that the playing surface is flat and level.
• Issue: Ball cord gets tangled.
  Solution: Ensure the cord is fully unwound before starting play. If it tangles during play, stop and untangle it carefully. Avoid hitting the ball too forcefully or at extreme angles.
• Issue: Pole sections are loose.
  Solution: Twist the pole sections firmly until they lock into place. If the locking mechanism is damaged, contact customer support for replacement parts.
• Issue: Racket feels flimsy.
  Solution: Inspect the racket for cracks or damage. If damaged, discontinue use and replace the racket.
