Pitch Locators

PITCH LOCATORS Pitch Locators Purpose
Pitch locators adjust to limit change in the movement of the throwing head defining the location of the pitch: inside/outside and high/low or locked for repeatability.
There are three pitch locators and an elevation handle. Two of the pitch locators, left pitch locator (LPL) and right pitch locator (RPL), control the amount of horizontal (inside/outside) pitch location. (See Figure 6)

Left Pitch Locator (LPL)

Right Pitch Locator (RPL)

WARNING HAZARD FROM HIGH-SPEED PROJECTILES
Being struck by a pitched ball can cause serious injury or death. Make sure that no one steps in front of I-Hack Attack while it is connected to electric power.
Clear all hitters away from home plate, the batter's box and the backstop area before connecting I-Hack Attack to electric power.
NOTE: As wheel speeds are changed for different velocities and spins, the ball will be pitched to differing locations. Compensate for these changes by turning the elevation control and adjusting pitch location by moving the r ear leg.
Figure 3 Always throw a test pitch and present the ball to the hitter prior to feeding.

Lower Position (Fungo)

Figure 6

Pitch Locators Functions

Locators in raised positon
1. To locate pitch inside and outside for change in the hitters strike zone (See Figure 7) 2. Allow for wider pitches for catcher's blocking drills (See Figure 7) 3. To allow head to be locked in position for pitch location repeatability. (See Figure 7) 4. To allow for balls to be thrown across width of infield or outfield for around balls/fly balls (fungo) for defenssive work (See pic above)

Care & Cleaning

CARE, CLEANING & MAINTENANCE LUBRICATION (once per season, or as required):
1. Elevation Control a. Apply fresh grease. b. Reinstall, making sure that the tension spring is around the threads.
2. Frame Lock Apply a small amount of grease where the pin passes through the fitting. Make sure the travel lock operates freely.
3. Pitch locaters (left, right, upper) Pitch locators are lubricated using WD-40 and may require more frequent lubrication. Simply apply WD-40 onto the treads of the knob shaft (top bolt by know). Also spray WD40 on the lower bolt by machine yoke and move pitch locator up and down to work into all areas.
THROWING WHEEL MOTORS
Motors are sealed and require no lubrication. Check bolts for tightness once a season. Tighten bolts securely, but do not over-tighten.
CLEANING THE THROWING WHEELS
The throwing wheels must be kept clean to maintain accuracy. Clean the wheels periodically to control the build-up.
1. Shut down software using button on upper left corner of the home screen ( ) 2. Turn the on/off switch "OFF", allow wheel to come to a complete stop. 3. Unplug I-Hack Attack from the power source.
4. Dampen a rag with soap and water. Turn the throwing wheel by hand and scrub the wheel until the build-up is removed. For very heavy build-up, a synthetic scouring pad, such as a Scotch-Brite® scouring pad, or medium sandpaper may be used sparingly. Methyl Ethyl Ketone (M.E.K.) may be required to help loosen the build-up of dirt or ball residue.

CAUTION PERSONAL INJURY
HAZARD
Never attempt to clean the throwing wheels while they are turning. Rags or implements caught in spinning wheels can cause serious injury.
Unplug the machine before cleaning the wheels or performing any service.
CHEMICAL HAZARD
Methyl Ethyl Ketone (M.E.K) Read and follow the directions and safety instructions on the M.E.K container.
FIRE HAZARD
Methyl Ethyl Ketone (M.E.K) M.E.K. is flammable. Do not use M.E.K. around a fire or flame. Do not use M.E.K. near a running generator or other source of ignition.

EXAMINE THE MACHINE
Examine I-Hack Attack for condition and completeness before every use: 1. Throwing wheels must have no chips or cracks. 2. Throwing wheels must be tight on the motor shafts. Check that the keyway retaining bolts are tight. 3. Wheel guard and ball chute must be securely fastened to the throwing head.
