OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Court Placement / Test Button
Your Lobster elite grand five le is a computerized tennis machine and has been
designed to keep the ball in the full singles court.
• Ensure that the main power switch is in the up or on position.
• Start by placing the machine with the white Line Marker

button. One tennis ball should be thrown over the
net to land within a 2 foot area of the opposite side of the court
where the service and center lines converge, just as depicted by
the diagram to the right.
- If the test ball lands outside of the 2 foot radius, long or short use
the
