  • 8. How to level my table?
  • Leveling a table is dependent on the type of table. On some tables the bottom plate that meets the floor turns and screws in and out, allowing you to change the table level with a twist of that plate. On other tables you have to slide a thin piece of material under the leg.

    Generally, if you have a few strong people and a level, leveling a table is not very complicated. Have two strong people raise up the side on which the leg is that you you need to raise and slip your shim in/screw the leg out. Place a spirit level across the width of the table at one end and screw the table feet up or down until level. Repeat at the other end of the table, across the width, corner to corner. Finally place the level down the length of the table and raise or lower one end of the table by means of the levelling screws, adjusting both feet at one end by equal amounts until level along the table. Check levels again and repeat if necessary.

    Now that you've gotten the table fairly level, you can test it by rolling a cueball slowly at various places on the table and see if it rolls true. Make your final adjustments based on this.

    Be carefull, if you put your pool table on a carpet, wait some time for the table to settle down. Moreover, if you have a table that shifts fairly easily from a push, in any event the table will not stay perfectly level for very long.

    Caution: Do not try to do this without the proper number of people in the proper physical condition to help. Even a "light" table is quite heavy and you could harm somebody. If you are not sure call us.

  • 9. Table maintenance
  • After your table is installed, regular maintenance will maintain the quality of the cloth. It is recommended that the table be fitted with a cover to protect the table when in not in use. The cloth should be brushed regularly, always brushing from the baulk end, down the length of the table in the direction of the nap.

  • Yes, we do have some coin operated models and we also sell coin mechanism. If you are an operator or use your table for commercial purposes, we have special offers for you on coin operated tables. Don´t hesitate to contact us for more information.
