Troubleshooting

Table is wobbly

Ensure all table legs are fully extended and locked into place. Check for any unevenness in the floor surface and adjust leg levelers if available.

Net is sagging

Re-tighten the net by adjusting the posts and ensuring the net is pulled taut. Check that the net clips are securely fastened to the table edges.

Ball won't inflate

Ensure the pump needle is inserted correctly into the ball's valve. Check for any obstructions or damage to the valve or pump needle.

Bat surface peeling

For minor peeling, a strong adhesive might offer a temporary fix. However, significant peeling indicates the bat may need replacement for optimal play.
