Hello all,
We have a Pat Trap that our club bought new about 4-5 years ago (don't know which series it is, but it has the old style metal plate/roller wheel assembly on the doubles target hole).
Last weekend, the machine was breaking targets when set on doubles and we realized the machine had fallen out of time. We re-timed it and it would throw 5-6 pairs fine, but then we would notice the machine to be falling out of time again...little by little to the point where it was breaking targets again. There didn't appear to be problems with the machine as it was throwing the targets (no hic-ups, hesitations, etc.) but for sure it was falling out of time.
My question is: What causes these things to fall out of time and what areas should we focus on in trying to come up with a fix?
Thanks for all your help.
Brian
