5. Operating Instructions

To begin playing billiards:

1. Rack the Balls: Use the triangle rack to arrange the 15 colored balls at one end of the table. The 8-ball is typically placed in the center of the third row.
2. Position the Cue Ball: Place the white cue ball behind the head string (the imaginary line across the table's width, one-quarter of the way from the head end).
3. Break: Use a cue stick to strike the cue ball, aiming to scatter the racked balls.
4. Gameplay: Follow standard billiard rules for potting balls and taking turns. The scratch-resistant felt ensures a smooth playing surface, and the premium cushion bumpers provide consistent rebound.
