Operating Instructions
Once assembled and powered, your GoSports Air Hockey Table is ready for play:
- Power On: Locate the power switch, usually near the AC adapter connection or on the scoreboard unit, and turn it on. You should hear the AC motor activate, creating airflow across the playing surface.
- Scoreboard Operation: The LED scoreboard will automatically track goals. Familiarize yourself with the 'ON/OFF' and 'RESET' buttons on the scoreboard. If the automatic scoring is too sensitive, you may opt to use the manual scoring sliders often located on the side rails.
- Gameplay: Each player uses a pusher to strike the puck across the low-friction surface, aiming to score in the opponent's goal. The high-power AC blower ensures effortless gliding of the puck.

Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your air hockey table:
- Cleaning the Surface: Regularly wipe the playing surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the UV printed artwork.
- Check Air Holes: Periodically inspect the air holes on the playing surface for any obstructions. Use a small, soft brush or compressed air to clear them if necessary.
- Electrical Components: Keep the AC adapter and scoreboard free from dust and moisture.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the table in a dry, temperate environment.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
