  4. Note where the ball goes in relation to the stumps. Adjust the ball to the left or right by shifting the rear leg:

    • To move the ball left, move the swing control to the right.
    • To move the ball right, move the swing control to the left.
    • Final fine horizontal adjustment (inside/outside) is made using the Horizontal Control Handle. First loosen the Horizontal Swivel Lock than adjust using Horizontal Control Handle. And finally re-tighten the Horizontal Swivel Lock Handle.
  5. Adjust the length:

    • Turn the elevation control clockwise to bowl fuller.
    • Turn the elevation control counter-clockwise to bowl shorter.
  6. Adjust the speed control dials to produce the required speed. Larger numbers equal higher speed.

  7. Feed a second ball.

  8. Repeat steps 4, 5 and 6 until the desired swing, spin, accuracy and speed are achieved.

  9. Refer to “Selecting the Type of Bowling”, page 7.

  10. Feed several more test balls to ensure the machine is set correctly.

  11. After you are sure desired delivery is repeating, allow the batter to step into the net.

  12. See Figures 3 and 4 at left.

    • Before each feed present the ball to the batter.
    • Drop the ball into the ball chute.

WHEN FEEDING TO A BATTER
Proper feeding technique is important to take advantage of Crick Attack’s life-like vision and timing.
When feeding:

  1. Be sure batter is ready.
  2. Present the ball to batter by raising it so batter can clearly see it, then place ball at the top of the ball chute, seating it firmly against the ball chute. The ball should be held back against the chute to ensure a smooth consistent feed.
  3. Release the ball to roll down the ball chute and into the throwing wheels.

WARNING HAZARD FROM HIGH-SPEED PROJECTILES
Being struck by a thrown ball can cause serious injury or death. Make sure that no one steps in front of Crick Attack while
it is connected to electric power.
Clear all hitters away from the backstop area before connecting Crick 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 by moving the rear leg.

Figure 3 Present the ball to the hitter

Figure 4 Feeding the Ball

IMPORTANT: Hitter should stride the instant he sees the ball release from the feeder’s hand at the upper end of the ball chute.

SELECTING THE PITCH

  1. NOTE: Vertical (elevation) and horizontal (swivel) must both be adjusted whenever you change speed or spin.
  2. Always have the batter step away from the wicket area before adjusting speed or spin.

BALL SELECTION

  1. Never mix different type of cricket balls.
  2. Be careful not to mix new with old balls, or balls from different manufacturers.
  3. Balls must be consistent in type and amount of wear to produce repeatability.
  4. NEVER USE WET BALLS!
    Real leather OR balles designed to work in cricket machines are best.

Discard old or soft leather balls from your Crick Attack batting sessions. Similarly, discard older worn cricket pitching balls.
