​Pongbot Pace S Pro: Quick Start & Safety Guide
IMPORTANT: This machine is a high-performance AI robot. Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury or damage to the equipment.
1. Critical Safety Rules (Must Follow)
 Keep Your Distance: Maintain a minimum distance of 2 meters from the machine’s front
portal at all times during operation.
 Hands OUT: Never reach inside the ball hopper or launch tunnel while it is powered on.
 The Cabin Door: Do not force the cabin door open. Only open it via the App Settings or
Remote Control command. Never open it while the robot is serving.
 Ball Quality: Use DRY, CLEAN balls only. Wet or damp balls will slip, cause jams, and may
corrode internal motors.
 Emergency Stop: Familiarise yourself with the "Stop" button on both the remote and app.
2. Environment & Care
 Weather: Do NOT use the machine in rain or high humidity. If caught in a
shower, power oƯ immediately and dry the "ball-delivering tunnel" with a towel.
 Heat: If the battery feels excessively hot after long-term use, cease
operation and allow it to cool in a shaded area.
3. Setup & The "Smart" Sensors
1. Placement: Put the robot at least 12 feet (3.6m) behind the baseline for safety and ball flight.
2. UWB Sensors: * Clip the two Blue P-Stations to the net (directly above the doubles sidelines).
o Clip the P-Tag to your collar or waistband.
3. Power On: Toggle the power switch. The remote/app will pair automatically via Bluetooth once the
icon appears.
4. Packing Away Checklist
 Empty Machine Hopper: Remove all tennis balls (best to fire them to empty)
 Power OUT: Switch the main power to 'O'.
 Invert Hopper: Flip the hopper so the arc-shaped end faces forward; place it upside down on the base for compact transport and pull the handle. If carrying, only hold the metal near the base.
 Sensor Return: Ensure the P-Tag and both P-Stations are returned to the charging dock/case.
 Storage: Do not store the robot or battery outdoors or in a vehicle overnight.
In case of a ball jam: Stop the machine via the App/Remote. Power out the main switch. Only then should you attempt to clear the obstruction
