Operation
• To increase the speed of the ball, turn the dial for a slower-turning wheel
(clockwise).
• To reduce the speed of the ball or to reduce the amount of curve, turn the
dial counterclockwise for a faster-turning wheel. REMEMBER, the greater
the speed differential between wheels, the greater the curve. Conversely,
a small differential will result in a smaller curve. Equal speeds will result
in a ball kick with little or no spin (knuckleball).
• A relatively straight ball can be thrown by maintaining a 20- to 30-point
difference between the speed settings of the two wheels.
DIAL SETTINGS fOR VARIOUS TOSSES
Figure 5, below, shows some typical speed-dial settings for the left and right
wheels of the machine. These combinations will produce the type of kick
shown—i.e., curves, straight balls and knuckleballs.
