Junior Hack Attack FAQ’s
What adjustments need to be made to change speed and curves on the machine?
Simply adjust the relative speed of each of the throwing wheels. A pitch selection chart is provided on both machines as a reference for setting various pitches. No tilting of the throwing head is ever required for curve balls, sliders, etc. With a simple turn of the elevation adjustment handle, you can even move the pitch up or down within the strike zone between pitches.
What is the advantage of a three-wheel machine as compared to other designs?
Vision/Timing: The design of the Junior, with three throwing wheels, insures that the batter never loses sight of the ball. A batter will lose sight of the ball on a 2-wheel machine because of the location of the top throwing wheel. The most common complaint from coaches and hitters of a 2-wheel machine is the fact that the loss of vision affects the batters timing. Ball Control: The Junior, with three throwing wheels, provides greater accuracy than any other pitching machine. Wheel and Ball Wear: Since less gripping is required, both wear on the throwing wheels and wear on the ball is greatly reduced.
What makes the Sports Attack pitching machine wheels higher in quality?
Careful testing of quality components builds a better product. No air pressure considerations with our solid design. They have never replaced a throwing wheel due to wear, weather or melting!
The Junior is heavier than competitive machines, why is heavier better?
More mass absorbs recoil resulting in extreme accuracy. This machine is stable and does not move around from recoil. All weight is centered over mid-point, no cantilevering like with other machines. Regardless of weight, due to the unique design, this machine is more portable then other lighter units.
What is the warranty on the JUNIOR HACK ATTACK pitching machine?
The machine is warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of five (5) years from the date of original purchase, with the following exceptions: throwing wheels are warranted for one (1) year; electronic controller is warranted for one (1) year; and, the throwing wheel motors are warranted for one (1) year.
