Repair for Pacaman Pro bowling machine- new elec motor?
« on: April 01, 2021, 07:33:31 AM »
Hi All,

I had my first net yesterday, in the sunshine.
Unfortunately, my trusty Paceman Pro machine started smoking and gave up after about half an hour.

I let it cool and tried it a few hours later - nothing. It looks like the electric motor has packed up/ burnt out.

Does anyone know if there are any firms offering a repair service or where I might start to look for a replacement electric motor?

Next task is probably to open the casing up to look at the motor to find some details about power/ size.

If anyone has an views, experience or suggestions as to hwo to get it 'refreshed', I would be very grateful.

Thanks in advance,

David

By way of an update in case anyone else finds themselves with any issues with their Paceman.

They have a technician in the uk who can undertake an assessment and repairs.. The email to contact them at is - info@dimensionsport.com;
 I have sent mine off for assessment, thnking it may need a replacement motor £99.90) or circuit board £55.90). Both prices include return carriage.

I shall update you on progress.

Quick update -

My Paceman Pro has been delivered back, with a replacement electric motor (for £99.90). It works as good as ever. I am very pleased and would recommend the service if you are having any issues with a Paceman machine.

It is a 2014 model and I am pleased with its robustness and capability. It is very heavy to carry and set up (far more so than my previous, lower priced Paceman), so I'm considering swapping to a Bola Junior. More thinking to be done....
