How to Identify and Resolve Common Issues ?

We offer a diverse range of insights on identifying and resolving common problems in sports. Our sources encompass academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays shared by seasoned athletes. :

The good news is you can usually fix it without having to replace the table`s surface. The smaller the dent, the easier it is to fix. Use clear epoxy to fill the dent in until it`s level. After the epoxy has set, use sandpaper to grind down the surface and carefully re-drill any clogged air holes.
Clean off the fan and reinstall. Sometimes the motor will automatically shut off as a safety feature. Check the underside of the motor for a reset button. If this reset button has been triggered, your air hockey table should power up just fine after you push the button and pop it in back in.
All air hockey tables are electrically-operated, with powerful electric fans providing the air current. They are supplied ready to plug in, with a UK plug wired in, so you should ensure that you have a power socket in the vicinity of the table`s planned location.
GOAL CIRCUITS

The upper pair goes to an infrared phototransistor, while the lower right pair goes to an infrared LED. This circuit forms the goal sensor to detect when the puck has landed in the goal. The low-powered phototransistor is amplified through the BC549 NPN transistor, which lights the LED.

Large puck air hockey tables tend to be more expensive, but this is because they are built to last for years of play, even in a commercial establishment.
How do I get rid of an air hockey table? Bulky gaming tables are heavy and awkward, making them difficult to dispose of. The easiest way to get rid of an unwanted air hockey table is to have it picked up and hauled away for proper disposal by the junk removal experts at LoadUp.
Fill the Hole, Dent, or Ding with Spackle

Completely fill the hole with spackle, then use the putty knife to scrape away any extra. You don`t need to try for a perfect finish at this point, so it`s OK if there is a little excess spackle leftover during the drying process.

The player must have the plug inserted or have a sufficient amount of tape covering the exposed end of the shaft to prevent injury.
Charging is a penalty in ice hockey. Rule 42 of the NHL rulebook dictates that charging “shall mean the actions of a player or goalkeeper who, as a result of distance traveled, shall violently check an opponent in any manner.
Interaction with the puck is the main mechanic, and therefore there are some very specific rules about how you can and can`t hit it: most notably, you can`t bring your mallet down on the puck to stop it or drag it. This is called “topping”, and constitutes an immediate foul.
Magnetic air hockey works in a similar way to regular air hockey. However, it contains one key difference. Before the start of a game, both players select a couple of areas on the board to magnetize.
The hockey table is Plug & Play powered by the cable that will supply the energy to power the strong airflow of the board. The blower creates an air cushion that will keep the pucks gliding smooth throughout the board. The air hockey table makes a great birthday, Christmas, and holidays gift for kids.
Foosball can be loud, but the wood material helps absorb the sound. Meanwhile, air hockey is a fast-paced game played on plastic and metal, which generate a constant clinking noise that rings throughout the union.
How Does A Power Play In Hockey Happen? In ice hockey, a power play happens when one or two players from a team commit an infraction or a penalty. The player who has been penalized will be obliged to spend time out of the ice rink. The penalized player, or players, are sent to the penalty box, or sin bin.
The biggest dedicated home tables are made in 7ft size. This is plenty big enough for adults and children alike to play on and, if it`s a wide model like the Pro Ice below, could be wide enough to allow for games of doubles.
This fast-paced, action-heavy game is an arcade classic and a favorite for young. Baby Air Hockey offers the same great play and excitement that you find with standard size tables, just at a height and size that comfortably works for kids ages 2-8. For such a riveting, intense game, air hockey is super easy to play.
USA Hockey designates four skill levels: Tier 1: The highest level of competition, also called “AAA”, following the Canadian system. Tier 2: also called “AA” or “A”. Tier 3: may also be called “A”, the lowest level of competitive hockey. Recreational/Developmental: Includes house league and select.
No “topping” the puck—this means players cannot lift their mallet and place it over the puck to hold it in place. No touching the puck with hands, arms, or other body parts. Each player is allowed one 10-second time out per round.
Clean the table once a week or as necessary, using the alcohol on a clean cloth or paper towel to remove dust and dirt which will slow the puck. DO NOT USE silicone, wax, or anything similar which coats the surface and may plug up the holes. When cleaning the surface, do NOT clean the side rails where the puck hits.
Air hockey is a popular game for children, and an air hockey table is a great addition to any home game room.
The secret is Penetrex™, a unique penetrating oil that reaches deep into the crack and forms a complete seal. With the addition of liquid rubber, this flexible, high performance plastic cement provides a superior watertight bond that will stop problem leaks for good.
Apply a bead of silicone sealant around the opening of the plug hole to create a watertight seal inside your basin. Fit the waste into the hole, making sure any slots are pointed towards the overflow (if your waste and basin has these). Apply a second bead of silicone around the thread before adding a washer.
The complete repair for stripped threads is to use a coil-type thread insert. These inserts will give the bolt hole completely new threads which accept the size of the original bolt. In order to use inserts, you must drill the damaged holes slightly larger so that it can take the thread insert.

My swimming pool. I have just had my fifth IC 40 Intellichlor chlorine generator installed in 4 years at a cost of over $900 today. Each one has worked for no more than 8 months. The first three were replaces under three year warranty, the fourth by a factory rep and I bought the fifth today. The first three all failed with Flow Chk PCB error message. The fourth just stopped working on Sunday, no power or lights. A local Pentair warranty person, whom I paid a Service Call, unplugged the unit, opened the small power center cover, showed me the green light indicating that there was power, plugged in a new IC 40 which worked immediately (as did the other four). I asked if I should replace the power center and he said that it’s basically just a transformer and is working fine. We do get occasional power blips that make the clocks on microwaves, etc blink, but I thought that the power center essentially isolates the cell from these. I do have a Florida Power and Light surge protector on the electrical box that brings power into the house. I have now talked to the pool builder, two Pentair warranty repairmen and one factory rep. I am at a loss. They all tell me they have no idea why these units fail after less than a year. This last IC 40 was installed 3/24/2010, version 2.0 and now failed in less than 5 months. Should I replace the power center that the IC 40 plugs into. Any other suggestions. I have been told that this is the best chlorinator. I don’t want to keep replacing units. By the way, each unit had been spotless inside. I keep the water chemicals and salt levels at ideal levels. The units have never worked long enough to get dirty inside. The power center is connected to an Intellitouch control system outside with an indoor control panel. Last time I called Pentair North Carolina and got some smart alec tech person that had no suggestions. Please Help if you can.
ANSWER : I’ve had the same experiance. On my fifth one as well. Fail every year. No idea why.

Need the wire diagram to rewire my Ariens lawnmover to bypass the safety switch. It is Ariens GT-19 model # 931026 Serial # 001463.
Can you help? It is an old Ariens mower but still runs good but now I need to bypass the safety switch in order to run it any longer. The local Ariens dealer said I need to go through the internet and get the wire diagram as they cannot give it to me directly. They told me I needed the wire diagram and the part involved in bypassing the safety switch. Hope this is all the information you need to help me.

Thank you. Roger Fielitz

ANSWER : Here is owner manual:http://apache.ariens.com/manuals/030305C.pdfusually the switch is behind the ignition, sometimes at the N position of gearshift, just look for a switch with one wire coming in & one going out (usually the same color); disconnect the two wires & jumper them together to bypass the switch. Looks like yours has one under the seat.

Spark plug wire boot grounding out on coil, 96 outback 2.5 automatic, just put new spark plug wires, new spark plugs, and new coil on. ran great for two weeks, now spark is jumping out of boot at coil on one wire, put old coil back on and still does it in the same spot. replaced wires again, and still does it in the same spot. seems to do it only under a load. Is my new spark plug on that cylinder bad? Does the coil need some insulation under it? It is the coil that sits right on top of the motor. Any ideas? thanks.
ANSWER : Sparks are high voltage, and will always follow the path of least resistance. If you can visibly see a spark (whether in a lighted area, or in the dark), that means either that a plug wire (or coil wire) is open (non conductive), or your have a carbon track on the surface where the spark can be seen, but most likely you have BOTH problems!

If you have an ohmmeter, check the resistance of each wire involved, particularly spark plug wires … which means you must be able to connect to both ends of each wire at the same, and hopefully, FLEX those wires, to be sure they don’t have a break inside that is intermittent (comes and goes)!

I have a Kohler Condidant 5 Generator that will run as long as you hold the start button in. It dies when you let off. I have a harness for the remote switch but no switch – It also will start the generator when you cross the red and black wire and run as long as you hold them together. There are 3 wires to the main switch and 5 to the remote switch. Does the starter stay engaged the whole time you hold the start switch or does the computer release the starter once it is running? The Generator is producing electricity because I tested it while holding the start button. Some where is a wire that shold tell it to keep running. I have read online many descriptions of the same problem, most are told the board is bad so they replace it and still have the problem. Have not found a solution. Talked to a marine machanic today and he said he fixed his friends generator doing the same thing by running a bypass wire but he couldnt remember exactly what he did it was a long time ago. Can anyone help me. Thank you
ANSWER : The problem is either the ballast resistor or the starter bypass relay. The bypass relay should be part of the starter solenoid. I’m afraid I can’t tell you exactly where the ballast resistor is located. It should be a physically fairly large resistor made of ceramic. It should be retangular roughly 1.5″-3″ long and 3/8″-1/2″ accross with a wire on each end. It could also be a coil of wire mounted on a phenolic board.
If you need more help just add a comment and I’ll respond as soon as I get the message.

Trying to install a new fluro light, pull out old light to find 3 reds and 3 blacks 1 copper earth. What do I do to connect it up the right way??? When I pulled the old Fluro light out the 3 Reds were joined together with a connector ,two blacks were joined to one end of light wire, the other to the other end of the light wire,earth wire to the light case,the third black wire was connected to the wire from the ballast? Does this all make sense
ANSWER : No, this does not make sense but I have seen strange wiring before. There is power going from the light someplace else. Just connect it back up exactly as the old light was connected. It worked before so it will work again. If it works it is wired correctly. Without being there to check which wire was the hot wire and which was neutral it is impossible for me to say what is what. Make sure you connect the ground wire to the light chassis.

I have a Beretta PX4 Storm Compact. I lost what they call the central block/slide absorber. Is that two parts or one?
I see part # 913-101-237 (Factory #C5B886) (cam block px4 SD) and Part # 913-100-749 (Factory #C5B720) (locking block) on the exploded parts diagram. Do I need both or if only one, which one?
ANSWER : Hello there,

You need to get both of them john_ulrich, if you replace just one, it will not work except you replace them both. They work together.

Hope this advice helps.
All the best

I have purchased three 750-watt power inverters in the last three weeks. They have all failed to work on the second or third use. The first two were the same brand. I replaced an old one that ran for several years. I am using it to run a 4.7 amp 120-volt vacuum cleaner motor that pumps up my air dock. I have it connected directly with marine cable to one of the boat batteries. The battery outputs about 12.8 volts DC. The fuses don?t blow, just No Output. I am using a three-wire 120-volt extension cord and am, wired neutral, hot and ground to the AC motor vial an on/off switch. The motor works fine when I run house power with an extension cord from the dock next to me. Could I be, just unlucky with new inverters and need to buy a forth one?
ANSWER : The problem may be that the inverter is undersized for the load. Is the 4.7 Amp rating the motor peak draw or the nominal one. What I mean is that it takes many times more power to start start the motor than when the motor is running. Typically it is 3 to 7 times more amps to start the motor than when it is running. It could be that starting the vacumm cleaner is stressing the inverter and it is causing it to fail prematurely. If you can find out the locked rotor current draw of the motor, the that would be the mininum size of the inverter.

Also, the type of inverter will make a difference on how the motor operates. A modified sine wave will make the motor run hotter than a pure sine wave inverter. Hope this helps.
