Ballstar Help - changing pads

[xianmacx]

Hey guys,

I can't figure out how to get the spindle out of my ballstar to change the pad.

Thanks in advance,
Ian

Gates Billiards in Dallas, TX.. They have sold a lot of them, and still do.

Pull

Pull!!! The only thing holding the spindle on is a rubber piece that grips to the motor crank. I just pulled on mine the first time. It felt like it wasn't coming off, but I pulled harder and it slid right off.

Well aside from lovin that car in youur avatar

I like your style: if it doesn't do what you want it to force it too!

That's how I roll. I learned with my Nintendo as a kid that the only way to make things work for you is to beat the crap out of them!

Mine has a shear pin that has to be pulled.

Is there not a web site or service facility for Ball Star ?? I too would like to get replacement parts and such and find it hard to believe that somebody makes and sells a 500.00 ball cleaner with no after the sale support . Just my opinion, I could be wrong....

I asked the same question on another thread and yes, pull hard. I didn't think it was going to comeoff, but it did and nothing broke.
