Ball Jams

Your robot is equipped with a special system 
to detect and react to problems in the ball 
channel. When the system detects a problem, it 
will attempt to automatically clear the ball jam 
by turning the Ball Feed Motor and the wheels 
forward and backward 7 – 8 times.

If the error can’t be resolved so, all motors stop 
and the system shows an error code on the 
display (Er1 or Er2). Er1 indicates a problem in the 
base of the robot, and Er2 indicates a problem in 
the head of the robot (see Troubleshooting, p. 25).

To begin troubleshooting, first disconnect power. For an Er2 code, check that a ball is not stuck among 
the 3 wheels (commonly occurs after moving the head height down). If so, simply remove those balls by 
hand and resume normal operations.

For an Er1 code, remove the head by disconnecting the Head Cable, loosening the large Black Knob on 
the rear of the Ball Tube, and pulling up on the head. Then tilt the entire net system forward to expose 
the access slot on the Base Bottom, (see Photo 27). Take a long rod-like tool (screwdriver, dowel, etc.) 
that is about 30 cm (12 inches) long, insert it into the access slot, and push balls out the top of the 
lower Ball Tube.
